ljkool Posted October 10, 2014 #26 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Going out on the Summit in a week and my TA suggested signing up for a cruise that we are planning for Europe next year. I was told the I can move the reservation around and the idea is to reserve something to lock in the deal. I followed the link above explaining the rules to the TA's and this line caught my eye. CRUISE LATER TERMS & CONDITIONS: (Shipboard Version Only) A $100 non-refundable deposit per person is required to enroll in the Program; Am I reading this correctly? If this is the case and I do not choose Celebrity it seems I am out $200.00 chasing a perk I may or may not use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if this applies in your case, but some of the onboard booking OBC is now credited to your current cruise account, with a matching amount due, in the way of a non-refundable deposit. I know, it's confusing -- but, for example: When we were on Summit, the future cruise consultants were offering their seasonal "All-In" promo. If you booked Summit for the 2015 Bermuda season, you received: -- Free gratuities (for the 2015 cruise); -- Free classic drink package (for the 2015 cruise); -- OBC for your CURRENT cruise, equal to the amount of deposit for the 2015 cruise. The dollar amount of OBC/deposit was determined by the category of cabin you booked for 2015 -- e.g.: if you booked a Sky Suite for your "all-in" 2015 cruise, you got $250 OBC -- applied immediately to your current cruise. Your credit card was then billed for a $250 deposit. If you were to later cancel the 2015 cruise, you would lose that deposit -- as it is NON-refundable. Hope this helped to answer your question. BTW -- don't know if he's still onboard, but our FCC on Summit last month was Akim -- we really liked him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljkool Posted October 11, 2014 #28 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Thank you, that clears it up for me. Nothing to lose and a good value to gain. I will look for Akim and tell you said hello! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
