The question might be better asked for a specific cruise line, but so far at least in our experience, it can for every line (5 so far) that we have been on the answer is yes.

The OP is posting on the HAL board so one would assume they are asking about a HAL cruise. This IS the HAL board, after all 😉 That being the case, the answers they have received are correct and yes, it can be used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realized that after I posted. but still the question is more broad than just HAL and deserves a more comprehensive answer. I did learn from a post that the answer would be no for NCL.

Cats Meow2012 Posted June 28, 2019 Author #8 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Thanks for the replies. I rebooked my HA cruise where I get $1200 in OBC. I came out much better than the booking with prepaid gratuities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
