EJPhilly Posted January 28, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Has anyone ever paid balance of trip a few days after due date? If so, what did you do, did you call Customer Service? How cooperative are they? Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leaveitallbehind Posted January 28, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Let us know how this works out if your are indeed past final payment due date. Edited January 28, 2017 by leaveitallbehind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted January 28, 2017 #5 Share Posted January 28, 2017 If you booked directly with the cruise line....they will not automatically bill you for your final payment. You should keep note of it on your calendar and most definitely call them! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup sometimes you just have to take a chance and make a phone call. Worse can happen is they say "no".

Retired LEO Posted January 28, 2017 #11 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I was once 4 days late making a final payment. I was on a cruise at the time and forgot to make the payment before I left. It hit me towards the end of the cruise. I was sort of in panic mode on the way home. When I got home the reservation was still there, made the final payment and all was good. I won't let that happen again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean Boy Posted January 28, 2017 #14 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I wonder if how long they will extend the payment date has any relationship to how well the cruise is selling? It is in RCI's best interest to let it go a bit on a cruise with a lot of available cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BubbaNJ Posted January 28, 2017 #15 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Hi. If they extend the final payment date and you decide to cancel prior to the new date, will they refund all the money you paid so far? I am glad to see this posting. I paid for half of our next cruise with the final payment date on January 31. Unfortunately, I had a bone marrow biopsy done earlier this week and the results may come back on the 31st. Should I just cancel it and rebook at a later date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I just cancel it and rebook at a later date? We only paid the "deposit", when we booked this cruise last May when we were on Adv of Seas. So if for some reason we cancel we'll get that back. Since you paid 1/2, I would call them & tell them your situation. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted January 29, 2017 #17 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I believe that if you have made final payment, and have to cancel at the point where you lose the deposit....you will forfeit the full deposit, not the reduced deposit that you had for booking onboard.

dvieth Posted January 29, 2017 #18 Share Posted January 29, 2017 (edited) Does anyone know when the final payment is due? There are two pages on RCI.com they have 75 days for 7+ and 90 days for 7+ http://www.royalcaribbean.com/customersupport/faq/details.do?pagename=frequently_asked_questions&faqId=2694&faqSubjectId=322 http://www.royalcaribbean.com/customersupport/faq/details.do?pagename=frequently_asked_questions&faqId=2688&faqSubjectId=323 Thanks!

Biker19 Posted January 29, 2017 #25 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I have not read recent reports but for some time even up to two months ago many sailings still had a final payment date of 75 days (which should have been 90 according to the new policy).
