Yes...I believe X has the same policy that RCI has...as there's nothing at this time I can move the $900 deposit to. Have been hoping they will cancel this RT out of Amsterdam. I'm certainly not going to pay them my large final payment which includes business class seats booked with them...way too much $$$'s. Also assuming my RCI Oct 2021 Canada/NE will be cancelled also but if not I will cancel and have plenty of RCI cruises to move that FCC to.

CTCruiser76 Posted January 31, 2021 #5 Share Posted January 31, 2021 (edited) Yes, we just did this with RCCL. Our final payment date for our cruise was Feb 1st, we cancelled our non refundable suite deposit of $500 and received it back as a FCC.

Is this fairly new....that a FCC can be used toward a deposit? We were informed when we got it that it could only be used toward balance payments.

Does that include taxes/port fees? We have already paid a $250 pp deposit for a fall 2022 cruise. If our fall 2021 cruise isn't cancelled by the final payment date in July, we'll opt for a $250 pp FCC- which I'd like to apply to the 2022 cruise. However, the total cruise price is only $532 pp, including taxes & fees of $84 pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Ken...I was afraid of that! **I don't suppose RCI can swap monies so the cash paid for the deposit covers the cruise fare + partial taxes, and have the FCC cover the deposit?
