GeorgesGal Posted September 29, 2018 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2018 When I made my booking for an up-coming cruise in December, I booked as a solo. Since there was little value to booking with the perks as only one passenger I opted for the Senior Discount instead. Subsequent to final, my daughter found she could get the time off from work, so I added her to my booking. At this point, the perks became more valuable than the senior discount, and am wondering if ~X~ will allow me to change and include the perks, doing away with the senior discount. Does anyone have experience with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmaanne7 Posted September 29, 2018 #2 Share Posted September 29, 2018 It seems that, due to the inconsistency of Celebrity, the best thing to do is to phone and find out. If you don't get the answer you want, try once more. Have a great cruise with your daughter! Sent from my HUAWEI KII-L05 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHEZMARYLOU Posted September 29, 2018 #4 Share Posted September 29, 2018 The only way to know is to call Celebrity. I imagine the price with perks will have to be more than the Senior Discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlantaCruiser72 Posted September 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted September 30, 2018 You will be re-fared at prevailing rates (as of the date you call and request the change) for your chosen category with the current base offer (right now GoBetter is base offer for most sailings). You would need to determine if the total price differential is worth it based on this. For a December cruise they would expect full payment of the fare differential at time of making changes. You will need to call Celebrity reservations, or your travel agent if that's how you booked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvcrusn Posted September 30, 2018 #6 Share Posted September 30, 2018 How did you book? If you booked with a TA Celebrity won't answer your question, you must get the answer from the TA. If you booked with X directly, then call Captains Club. If you go the Captain's Club route through X and you get an answer you're not happy with, call back at least once more and ask your question again. Sometimes it makes a difference.

gold1953 Posted September 30, 2018 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2018 It is past final payment so will be harder to change this if at all possible. Always worth a call Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgesGal Posted September 30, 2018 Author #8 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Thanks to all for your suggestions. I did book with a TA, so will call him tomorrow. As to the fare, it is the same with the perks now as with the senior discount I booked. (Think I'll call Captain's Club now. Perhaps I can get a handle on what they will be telling my TA tomorrow! If, that is, they will even talk to me today.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are asking Celebrity to add the perks via the BBB bundle pricing for the exact same price that you have already paid, you may run into an issue. Perhaps you can upgrade to a higher category for a little more money and get the “perks” for just a little more. You may wish to go on line and see what higher category might be available for an additional amount. Best of luck tomorrow with your TA and Celebrity. By the way I have not actually done what you are asking. Edited October 1, 2018 by jagoffee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
