Mikey7989 Posted October 8, 2014 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Does anyone know what NCL's policy is on rates dropping from the time of booking? I noticed that the fare I booked a few months ago has dropped about $100, so I'm interested in either upgrading or trying for an OBC for the difference. Any thoughts?

BrownCalico Posted October 8, 2014 #2 Share Posted October 8, 2014 If it is before your final payment date then you can take advantage of the newly reduced fares. HOWEVER, you will lose any promos, onboard credit, etc you were previously booked under. What they do is cancel your prior booking (since you can cancel without penalty) and rebook you at the lower rate. Your final payment amount is adjusted accordingly. If it is AFTER final payment, you can give them a call and they MIGHT be able to allow you to upgrade to a higher stateroom category, but you cannot get onboard credit or a price adjustment for the reduced price. Hope that helps! Ask if any more questions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It all depends on multiple things so there is no definitive answer to that - but yes, it is more common for all the previous perks to go away when getting the lower price.

Dependant on which NCL site you booked through Edited October 8, 2014 by Ewoodspark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonyte Posted October 8, 2014 #5 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Dependant on where you live and which NCL site you booked through Yes, it does depend on which office you book through, but not on where you live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewoodspark Posted October 8, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Yes, it does depend on which office you book through, but not on where you live. Apologies for my error. I was trying to indicate that if you lived in England for example, you would probably book through NCL (UK) and consequently the idea of cancelling and re-booking would lose the deposit paid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey7989 Posted October 8, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I called this morning and (re)booked into a larger room with a little bit of savings and some OBC. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonyte Posted October 8, 2014 #8 Share Posted October 8, 2014 (edited) ... if you lived in England for example, you would probably book through NCL (UK) ... Yep, if one didn't know any better. Of all cruises I've taken, I have not booked one through my NCL "home office" in Germany. Edited October 8, 2014 by Demonyte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
