The first booking pushes me into Platinum. Gotta love that. Definitely. I can’t argue with earning 30 points for one cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomO Posted May 27, 2021 #27 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Do you think they can retroactively apply the promo to a cruise already booked? I could potentially cancel and rebook, but I'd have to check the rates. We aren't sailing until 2023. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AwesomO Posted May 28, 2021 #30 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I used the chat feature and was told they had to reprice it, which I don't think was technically a cancel and rebook since it's still the same reservation number, but it could definitely impact your price and promos of earlier bookings. Luckily for me, price was still the same with all the same promotions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saltsandknit Posted May 28, 2021 #32 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I was able to do this on one of my cruises and the price stayed the same. It really depends on the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainWoody Posted May 28, 2021 #33 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Two for two. Two different reservations. Two different CSR's. Neither was initially sure it would work, but tried. One told me she had been told that they would only be applied upon sailing, but I think she confused when they would be added to my point total not when the promo would be applied. They were both very helpful, and new confirmations were emailed showing all else as per the original booking but with addition of the LATDBLX promo code. I checked prior to verify that the cruise prices had not gone up. If they had, I don't this would have been possible. 11 day 2023 Southern Caribbean, so that's 44 extra points for fifteen minutes on the phone.

In my case I suspect it might be more because we are in Europe and can't reprice, it's always a cancel and rebook for us. Under normal circumstances we also forfeit our deposit no matter how far out, it's only "peace of mind" that allows us to cancel right now and we get our deposit back as a FCC. My PCC is brilliant, I'm certain he did all possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldconnection Posted May 28, 2021 #37 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Booked 3 cruises B2B a while back. Total of 21 days. Called my CC and asked about the double points. He happily rebooked. Will receive a whooping 63 points. Also one of the cruises went down a few dollars and he rebooked us at that the lower price. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come Monday they are offering 3x latitude points and ALL perks so I cancelled and rebooked. The only thing my PCC is unsure of is weather I will get my 10% of voucher back after the cancellation so I could be a small amount worse off is the don't let me have it back. That is a very good point! We are booked on the Prima and getting all the deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our booked cruises last year were all cancelled and we took FCC with the airlines refunding in both cases. We are looking for a September cruise around the Med. but it looks like our Christmas/New Year cruise around the Med. isn't happening as I can't find anything for 2021/2022.

PhillyTravelBug Posted June 1, 2021 Author #41 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I’m glad I went ahead and booked the cruise, because it looks like the two extra points per night promo is gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same!! We had one booked before the promo and got the triple points added Then booked Prima with the triple points And last week I booked our 2023 cruise so we could get triple points on it as well. I doubt we will see that promo again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well maybe not on your planned cruise itinerary - - - Don't doubt NCL - it will be back again - - - Something not selling to expectations - lure them in with points offers incentives etc. Least we forget Insider Past Guest Offers - - - NCL still offering the FREE Five promos and 30% off - - - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzsnooze Posted June 2, 2021 #45 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I feel ripped off. I booked a club balcony suite GTY and they don't honor the double points. If I booked a much cheaper inside cabin I'd be able to get the points. I have other cruises booked on a different line and feel their perks are more beneficial. I'm still going to do the booked cruise on NCL but feel disenfranchised as a customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare All-ready2cruise Posted June 2, 2021 #50 Share Posted June 2, 2021 My experience, as far as the double points given, is that they were applied to all cabins regardless of category. I think that promo ended May 31st at midnight. 1. I made an adjustment to my May 2022 cruise on Saturday May 29th and was given the extra points for a balcony. 2. On May 12th, I booked the Prima in a Studio T1, and received double points for that cruise as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
