book as single or drop a guest?

[cruznbelle]

Plan to book a med cruise with another couple on the noordam. Looking at an SY suite. DH doesn't want to go but I'm 90% sure he'll change his mind at the last minute. He simply loves to cruise - already told him just to stay on the ship if he so desires. So my question... do I book both of us - and drop DH later if DH really seriously wants to stay at home... or should I book as single and add him later? Never been faced with this before...

 

Thanks for any help. We are 3 star Mariners not that I think that makes any difference..

If you drop him later you will still be liable for a double occupancy rate, I believe. So just as easy to put him on the booking now.

I would book him now.

If the ship sells out, they may say the ship is at capacity and no more guests can be added. Probably wouldn't happen but why take the chance?

Thanks all... I booked - he challenged me that he would only go if I booked the PH... oh well... stupid spending but hey - only live once... personally think I should have just booked SY for 2 and bet on his change of heart - enough said - we'll have an awesome time.. great itinerary... more importantly - I'm happy - it's near to our 15th anniversary and the other couple's 26 anniversary...
