Flora Dora Posted June 25, 2020 #1 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I cancelled my Silversea cruise booking for 31 March a week before the cruise line cancelled the cruise. I received a FFC but those who waited received the option of a 125% credit or a refund. Does anybody have any experience with 'persuading' cruise lines to exchange the FCC for a refund? My husband is 87 and in poor health so is unlikely to be able to use this credit. This was to have been his last cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Sweethearts Posted June 28, 2020 #2 Share Posted June 28, 2020 If you aren't able to get the refund you wish, you might consider the following (from a Silversea website): "Future Cruise Credits are transferable to family and friends, and can be used partially and applied on more than one new booking."

They applied it to future cruise credit. I called and asked to have FCC refunded, and it was no problem. It did take a while (70 days) but we got it. Now, that was another cruise line, so I'd suggest you give yours a call and ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you, I wasn't aware of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanger727 Posted June 28, 2020 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2020 You should ask on the silver sea page. It’s entirely dependent on cruise line. Many have taken the stance that since you cancelled when they were offering FCC then you no longer had a reservation when they offered a refund.
