brenderlou Posted June 19, 2020 #1 Share Posted June 19, 2020 What happens now? Do I get 125% credit? Lift and shift? Curious how it works. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted June 19, 2020 #2 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Until Royal officially cancels the cruise, the options will be listed on their website. Don’t be too quick and cancel on your own, or you may just get the standard 100% FCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karena1 Posted June 19, 2020 #3 Share Posted June 19, 2020 I am waiting until they officially cancel, then will see what they offer. Will probably do another FCC since I have another 20 cruises booked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted June 20, 2020 #4 Share Posted June 20, 2020 if you cancel you only get a FCC. If they cancel you can get your cash back or get a FCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted June 20, 2020 #5 Share Posted June 20, 2020 We didn't want to make full payment for our Alaska cruise because the amount was huge, for four of us. We cancelled before RCI cancelled us and made a claim through our insurance. It didn't make sense for us to tie up that much in FCC that we may never use. We made the call and yes, lost some of it but we will not be cruising again, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello friend....Sorry to hear you won't be cruising again and hoping it's not due to your health....but rather out of caution. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBlackDress Posted June 20, 2020 #7 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I just sent an email to my TA... Our cruise was September on Grandeur. I don't know what our options would be for a lift and shift since Grandeur won't be with the fleet anymore. If I don't like the L&S options, I will probably take the 125% FCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean a 125% credit?Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being able to book August is not an official cancellation. As of today, RC only announced sailings are cancelled through July 31st. You are eligible for a 100% FCC. Although you cancelled, you may be able to call and lift and shift. RC is under no obligation to do this as your reservation is now cancelled.

puerto penasco lady Posted June 20, 2020 #11 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I am totally depressed. Just called my travel agent and cancelled 10 of the 15 cruises I had booked this year. I had already had 5 others cancelled. Now I have nothing until Nov 22, not sure I can survive that long. I would have made Pinnacle in February, but now who knows....I hate this damn virus.

I don't see anywhere where the poster said they already cancelled, just that it looks like their sailing will be cancelled because Royal pulled it from sale (plus the industry is shut down until September). They should get offered 125% as soon as Royal officially cancels it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello my friend, and thank you. It's actually both - my illness and the precautions I need to take are the reasons we can't cruise, or fly, or travel anymore, really. Well... maybe a road trip to a vineyard somewhere fabulous? 😊🍷 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point, the 125% is just an assumption based on what they have offered for other canceled cruises. The website says they will share details next week.

firefly333 Posted June 20, 2020 #23 Share Posted June 20, 2020 I saw someone who posted what looks like a text with a rcl agent who told her rcl will be sending out cancellations on tuesday. So ya all might have to wait until then. Carnival says it will make announcement monday, which doesnt mean for sure cancellations will be sent Monday but possibly. Just saying I'm reading tuesday for rcl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeW Posted June 20, 2020 #24 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Then there is the question of what happens to the Cruise Planner Credits that were applied to these cruises from other cancelled cruises. Hope they would just become another Cruise Planner Credit ( or just loaded back to the original numbers). But language of the original emails were that these were now non-refundable OBC. We had applied all but around $300 to new cruises that will be in this latest group of cancelled cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
