Shore Excursions

[gogy]

Once you select the excursions you would like to take, do you have to pay NOW on their website? Or can you order and they can bill you once on board. I would like to use my OBC, for excursions.

Thanks

If you wish to book your excursions now, you have to pay for them when you order them. If you wish to use your OBC for them, then you will need to wait until you are on board to book them.

Just a heads up popular excursions like marine animal interaction/swims, horseback swim/rides, cabanas/villas, 4x4/Jeep, and certain private resort passes do sell out online with no reserve for on board sales. If an excursion is something you really are looking to do book it now even though you will have to pay for it now.

OBC can be used for anything on the ship that gets charged to your S&S account, unless it is a promo that was strictly for drinks or excursions. You do know that with refundable OBC you can get cash back instead of waiting for the mailed check, by visiting the guest services desk the last night and requesting them to close out the account before accounting does (some have success at the S&S kiosk doing a "withdrawal" mid-cruise). With non-refundable OBC, at best you can treat yourself on board to something you would of never done or purchased before. At worst the last night on board you go to the casino transfer from your S&S card the rounded off dollar amount of the OBC left to a slot machine play a few spins, cash out and then withdraw the remaining credits at the cashier for currency.
