Cruisin MarcnFran Posted March 29, 2020 #1 Share Posted March 29, 2020 How many folks here have lost their $18 drink packages with all these cancellations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieDiva Posted March 29, 2020 #2 Share Posted March 29, 2020 [emoji1327]♀️And I know that we will never see it again. RC won’t even allow most OBC to be transferred. We lost almost $400 ($200 of which came because RC cancelled our Allure cruise )in OBC due to the cancellation of our cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted March 29, 2020 #3 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I will answer the question. We have lost our $18 drink packages. I don't drink much at all but we bought at that price since it was the same as what we spend on the refreshment package. I was looking forward to trying some different drinks and finding a new favorite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wine-O Posted March 29, 2020 #4 Share Posted March 29, 2020 We lost ours last August when Royal cancelled our 13-night TA cruise on Vision to make it a 11-night TA. They refunded everything in the Cruise Planner, requiring you to rebook your drink package, etc. at the current price (around $55). I called Resolutions and argued with them to no avail. 🍷 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuCruise Posted March 29, 2020 #5 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Yeah, lost it on our 7 night Anthem. We have it for our 4 night Mariner end of August, but not hopeful for that cruise either the way things are going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nu_cruzer1 Posted March 29, 2020 #6 Share Posted March 29, 2020 5 minutes ago, CookieDiva said: Well, of course, if we had completely cancelled our cruise and took a refund, we’d have saved thousands of $. But we rebooked for the same time of year on an older ship which hasn’t been amplified and paid several hundred $ more. We too rebooked for next March. Our booking is almost $4,000 more (7 people) than we paid for our cruise this past March just to get the same room configuration. Guess I won't be winning for much longer.

CruiseKeeper Posted March 29, 2020 #9 Share Posted March 29, 2020 We booked 5; used 2. We have lost 2 due to cancellations with 1 more potential Canada cruise cancellation anticipated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilgrin72 Posted March 29, 2020 #10 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Booked 1, lost it. Having to rebook at prevailing rate is going to mean I'm going to have to go several hundred dollars out of pocket even on top of the 125% in order to get it back. I may just take all my money back and put future cruising on hold for a couple of years, I haven't decided yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgestang Posted March 29, 2020 #11 Share Posted March 29, 2020 I did....but I still have my t-shirt....can I still wear it one cruises where I didn't score the $18 package or should I just relegate it into the trash 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilgrin72 Posted March 29, 2020 #12 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Separate question.. Do you think this is the reason they won't simply allow you to transfer any existing pre-cruise purchases to a new cruise if you want to re-book? Or is that completely unrelated?

Even in the odd case where your reservation number changes but it is the same cruise, ship and sail date cruise planner purchases cannot transfer from one reservation number to another. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nabalab Posted March 29, 2020 #17 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) We originally had it for this past week on Anthem, before it was obviously cancelled... ah well. Have it in the Fall on Oasis, one could hope! Edited March 29, 2020 by Nabalab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you rebook, they clean the slate in your cruise planner. 🍷 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1packerfan Posted March 29, 2020 #19 Share Posted March 29, 2020 Lost the $18 package for Harmony that was cancelled on April 12th. We still have it for a B2B on Freedom in October as of now and we had it for a 3 night on Navigator in Feb so took it where we could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure if they always did that because I've never canceled and re-booked before. Seems like if they're desperate to hold o to bookings, they might alter policy when people are being forced to re-book rather than doing it voluntarily, but I guess not. They would have kept my money had they allowed me to transfer that drink package to a new sailing, now I'm taking cash back instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
