I'm not disagreeing with you that the pricing moving forward may be an issue, but...at least there is an option to just get your money back and walk away. I agree with Jamie and feel bad for those who understandably jumped onto the FCC earlier. They will likely not have the choice. I already cancelled on Mar 6 and I am yet to see credits on my credit cards.. frustrated.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unfair to expect one company to eat the cost...... 125 is a buffer expecting those companies to pass along that cost to NCL. 125 is smoke and mirrors to convince people to leave cash with NCL. Sky high prices make the FCC somewhat useless and if they go BK it's toilet paper (kind of a hot commodity now, so maybe not so bad) Take the 100% cash refund and run 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btmfdr Posted March 13, 2020 #34 Share Posted March 13, 2020 What happens with your 'cruise next' that you have applied to your cruise, just reversed? credited in full? credited at a reduced rate? Hmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wampuscat7 Posted March 13, 2020 #35 Share Posted March 13, 2020 They're getting a lot of bad press over the lying to customers thing. Wonder if that factored in to the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love NCL, but I am totally nervous about the future of this company with the US Senate letter, and now this. I called and they couldn't answer that question. The employees seem to have been told almost after the release. All she could say was we would be notified or to try calling later, tomorrow etc. I agree we should at least have the same options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlamorousGirl Posted March 13, 2020 #40 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Very disappointed, was supposed to sail in 2 days. Guess I have to stay on land and be LESS safe, if the last few days of news is any indication... We already have other cruises booked that aren’t paid off yet so we will take the FCC and not need to worry about the price hike. If we didn’t already have prices locked in we’d probably take cash. It was booked partially with a voucher, hope we get that back too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jxtgreek Posted March 13, 2020 #41 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I would be interested to see what NCL's response will be when one of us finally gets thru to them and asks for them to convert their FCC to a cash refund or up the FCC to be 125%.

I would be surprised if they do. People who canceled before the Peace of Mind policy, even on cruises that would have been covered under that policy, were not retroactively given FCC.

susanf31 Posted March 13, 2020 #43 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I just called to get my refund on my 3/22 Encore sailing. They said the announcement just went out and they have not been briefed yet on how to issue refunds and to call back in 24 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHilla619 Posted March 13, 2020 #44 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I have a 4/11 sailing booked. With the wording they used does that mean I'm canceled and cruises starting 4/12 are still on? Or does that mean 4/11 is the first day they are allowing sailings again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caesars Entertainment has been “bankrupt” for a long time, but business goes on. I do agree the price hikes do make the FCC a bad option for people who don’t already have prices locked in for future cruises, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LS6Caddy Posted March 13, 2020 #49 Share Posted March 13, 2020 We were supposed to be on Breakaway 4/28. After the FCC cancellation policy came out last week, we pretty much decided we were going to cancel (due to DW work and the possibility of getting stuck somewhere for more than a few days extra). BUT...we were not going to actually cancel until 3-4 days before the cruise because of this exact situation. This thing has been evolving and changing by the hour...we felt there was a chance there would be cancellations of cruises and/or modifications to the cancellation policy. So we knew we should wait and see what evolved in order to cancel under the most beneficial circumstances. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
