NicolaNerthus Posted January 11, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2020 My TA is closed until monday, so i was wondering if anyone here had any experience with this. I have a cabin booked on Harmony coming up in about 3 weeks. I've booked a balcony as a solo. So i've already paid double fare. But i have a friend that may be interested in joining me. Any one have experience with adding someone last minute? did it change your perks, or charge a fee? I told her i would take her for free since i've already paid. i don't want to get her hopes up if its not possible. Thanks for any information!

Merion_Mom Posted January 11, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2020 No change for you. The new passenger will just have to pay port fees and taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee & Chilli Posted January 11, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 11, 2020 In addition to the port fees and taxes, there has to be space available in the lifeboat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the policies have changed, they always make sure there will be room in the lifeboats for the first two guests in a stateroom. That's why they put limits on adding 3/4 guests even though there may be empty staterooms in that muster station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suizas Posted January 11, 2020 #5 Share Posted January 11, 2020 So they won’t reprice the cabin? I’m asking because I also booked a balcony cabin as a solo on Allures west bound TA in November — but now considering adding a companion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcantw3658 Posted January 11, 2020 #6 Share Posted January 11, 2020 It's been a few years but I did this on Freedom. Only cost me less than $200 for port fees. 2nd passenger was added out 30 days out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seamingo Posted January 12, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) I tried this a few years ago. My husband’s work schedule changed so he could join me after final payment was made for me as a solo. RCI wanted about $500 to add him to the cabin. I was shocked thinking that I already had paid double as a solo but RCI was repricing at current rate plus his port fees which were about $100. The result: It was a 5 night cruise and he didn’t go.

If the agent tries either escalate to resolutions or call back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
