Ken at the beach Posted February 15, 2021 #51 Share Posted February 15, 2021 (edited) 7 minutes ago, cruiseboy89130 said: Great advice - so the best way to do this would be trying to get the 125% FCC when they cancel and move the OBC or would you advise to cancel now....get the 100% FCC before final and try to move the OBC as it qualifies under the categories of OBC you listed... Can you get the 100% FCC after a L+L? Thanks for all your help! Yes you should be able to cancel now as you are still under CWC and get the 100% FCC. That’s what I would do so you are not putting out more money. call and move the OBC first. Tell them you are going to cancel and get a FCC and that you want to move your OBC, once that is moved then cancel for the FCC. unfortunately you may end up with an agent that does not know that you can do this. If that is the case ask them to check with resolutions for clarification. 6. What will happen to my client's NextCruise onboard credit if he/she chooses to cancel? When choosing Cruise with Confidence, NextCruise onboard credits will be reallocated to your client’s future booking. Additionally, if your client has received onboard credit as a result of a redeployment, charter, or other goodwill gesture, it will also follow them to the new reservation. If your client chooses to cancel without opting for a Cruise with Confidence FCC, the NextCruise onboard credit will be forfeited.

cruiseboy89130 Posted February 15, 2021 #52 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Thank you so much!👍 That is what I will try to do.....move the OBC to one of my refundable bookings in 2022 and use the FCC to pay for that refundable booking .....that would also give me the opportunity to change in 2022 as there are no fees for the refundable booking to be changed.... You are a great help! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare A&L_Ont Posted February 15, 2021 #53 Share Posted February 15, 2021 @OurusualbeachI’m starting to think I will cancel my October sailing as well. We can then put down a combined total of $2,600 on our March 2022 cruise. Oasis in the RLS. If it is our last cruise it should be a good one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much depends on the vaccine, not just in our country but other countries as well. October is kind of that bubble area where many countries think that everyone who wants a shot will have one but right now it’s not clear we can meet that target. I still have my December cruise booked and have enough FCC to pay it in full so I’ll go ahead with that. Next up though is Baltic’s in August that I will pay off I& it’s not cancelled by then. Such a great deal on it that I will make final just to get the chance to lift and shift. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO I don’t see the quarantine returning home coming to an end by October, or at least any clear evidence of that by my final payment in July.

Final payment is due in a few days- we also have an august 2021 cruise booked, as well as winter 2022 cruises booked. With the May cruise, I booked drink package and a beach club day on Coco Cay. can we move these extras to the August or January cruise? We got a good discount on all. Or will we be refunded the extra's? So confusing! Edited February 16, 2021 by Cruise a holic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refund only for CP.. Nancy I just lifted and shifted my 2021 Alaska cruise to 2022. I had 125% OBC for CP purchases from a cancelled cruise from November 2020. The rep was able to not only allow me to keep the 125% OBC; they also let me transfer it to another booking. Perhaps it was because of the current vague status of the Canada sailings? In any case, I was surprised because I thought I would just get a refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, what you did was normal as you already had the 125% OBC from a previous sailing where you took the 125% FCC. I moved mine as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We L&S from 2020 to a more expensive 2021. Not sure if we'd do it again. After several cruises now having been canceled on three different lines, we're growing weary of making plans and having to change them. Getting too old for that. Probably will just take the refund and go somewhere domestically. Unless they sweeten the pot somehow :-). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cublet Posted February 24, 2021 #74 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Hello, I cannot see any conjecture on the following. Anthem has her last return sailing ex Southampton on 9th October 2021 for 11 nights returning on 20th - and then nothing. She next appears on the UK boards as departing Cape Liberty on 7th November. 17 nights to do a TA? I think not. Any suggestions?
