Gator83 Posted February 13, 2016 #26 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Can't you use the OBC to pay for gratuities? Thank you for all that have answered the OP's question as I have learned a lot from your answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted February 13, 2016 #27 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Can't you use the OBC to pay for gratuities?... Yes, but only if you don't prepay gratuities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookish Angel Posted February 13, 2016 #28 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I recently sailed on Grandeur and I my friend and I each had a $100 on board credit from RCI that we had to use or lose. No problem, we each used that up and cashed out the rest of the credit at guest services at no charge. We each came home with $140 cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazg Posted February 13, 2016 #29 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Yes, you can do it any day. Now, if you make your account a CASH account when you do online check-in, instead of giving a credit card, they won't even charge you the 5%!!! (I made $25 this way on the Anthem a couple of weeks ago! ;)) Hi Merion Mom, just way to funny! Hope all is well and would love to sail with you again soon! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pajazz28 Posted February 13, 2016 #30 Share Posted February 13, 2016 I have experienced that there is plenty of availability the day you board. I arrive at 10:30am to the port usually onboard by 11:15pm and I go straight to book anything I need never had an issue. They save spot for everything so people who do not have access pre booking can still get what they want. Good luck and enjoy your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseygirl74 Posted February 13, 2016 #31 Share Posted February 13, 2016 It would be nice if they could link dinner & excursion reservations monetarily to the Seapass account but I don't think they are quite there with their IT department (and may not be for some time). It really isn't in Royal's best interest to have us use our OBC before we board...we would all spend less. I have never had a problem getting a dinner reservation in a specialty restaurant. I usually book excursions online but after so many cruises, we are enjoying just taking taxis to the beach. Haven't booked an excursion for our upcoming Anthem trip yet, may just wait until we get onboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thetrail Posted February 13, 2016 #32 Share Posted February 13, 2016 If there is leftover OBC on your SeaPass account, you can cash it out at the casino with a 5% fee. They may not give it to you in cash. They may ask you if you want chips or slot vouchers. Take the slot vouchers. Go to a slot machine. Feed the vouchers into the machine. Play as little or as much as you want. Cash out. Go to the cash out machine, which will dispense CASH. :) Carol many folks don't know this little trick, but you are 100% correct! Keep missing you on ships, hope we catch up soon!.....K.O.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
