Allure March 1 2020 cancelled

[Nado44]

Received the official email that our MARCH 15, 2020 Allure of the Seas sailing (in a JS) was cancelled.

 

Was offered three options: 1) Sail on alternative early 2020 dates on Oasis and Allure along with $400 of onboard credit (edited to add "& price protection").  2) Book any new sailing and have $400 of onboard credit applied. Or 3) Cancellation & full refund.

 

We chose Option #2 and had the onboard credit applied to a booking we made yesterday.

The first option included price protection, right?

Yes, with price protection. Edited my post to reflect this. Thanks for asking!

I got my emails and will probably switch to Oasis.   It doesn’t need price protection because the same room is available at the same price.  

 

Was hoping to try a different ship since I have been on Oasis before but Oasis is much easier in terms of logistics for us.

Does anyone know if the $200 obc can be moved to an existing reservation?

Guessing you would have to keep  the original booking number.

You are right, that’s probably the way they do it.

The original Allure booking number needs to remain intact as that is where your $200 OBC will be (or $400 if you had a JS or higher). RCL will then transfer the confirmed ship, date, cruise fare/price of your existing reservation along with any other OBC or discounts/certs you previously used to the cancelled Allure booking. And then cancel the existing reservation.

Thank you.  

 

My existing reservation has gone up in price by much more than $200 so if I have to cancel and rebook it will not be worth it. I think I will stick to the original plan and transfer to Oasis on the same dates.

No - they insist on moving....if you chanage the res number the OBC will be gone as the promo is sticking to that res

For anyone who was planning b2b on Allure, I just received my second email notification. March 8th Allure is also cancelled. Same options were given as the letter of March 1st cancellation

Does a solo passenger get the same OBC compensation for a cancelled cruise as a double?
