What can I do with my onboard credit?

[deladane]

Any chance you can transfer it to me on my cruise??? :D

 

If not, then I like the money laundering idea of offering to buy people dinner at the steakhouse for a discounted price, then taking their cash and it's a win win for everyone!

A couple great ideas for sure. But honestly, you can't find a way to spend $300? My lovely wife has it spent and we are not even on the ship yet. LOL

Isn't there a Michael Kors shop onboard! ;):D

If you are in a suite, don't forget that a very good way to use up that OBC is to invite some poor non-suite passengers to join you for dinner in Luminae.

 

You might even get some volunteers right here. :D

Can I use non refundable onboard credit for the deposit of an onboard booking of a next cruise?

Unfortunately, that's not allowed.

They run the deposit as a separate charge and it doesn't appear on your on board account. I can't remember if they can look up the credit card to charge or if you need to have one with you.

Last week on the Infinity I got cash from the Casino against my NR OBC for a 5% charge.

 

That's what we had done in the past but I thought I'd read that it was no longer an option. However, on another thread, I read that they will issue you slot credit on your card, as well as the promo chips mentioned above.

 

Thanks for the great suggestions. I had a "Eureka" moment last night when I remembered the cosmetics store. Their prices are the same as the department stores at home but I don't have to pay sales tax. That seems like a good way to use a bit of the OBC.

If you plan to upgrade your drink package to premium, you can use OBC towards that.

Looks like this thread has jumped the shark. If you re-read the original post from an elite cruiser, they were looking for a way to obtain cash for the OBN since Celebrity changed the cash back policy in the casino.

 

They're well versed in ways to spend it on board since that's what X has evolved into nowadays. Pay for this extra or pay for that extra.
