Payment in full date changed

[Treasure Hunter]

I went on line to pay the balance on my February cruise on the Getaway out of NY as my due date was October 30 and was pleased to see that it had been changed to December 29. I called (the casino) just to be sure and was told that all cruises until March had the 120 days cut to 60. Thrilled and delighted. Just a heads up!

This is normal for now due to covid

Change occurred either late July, or early August, for cruise booked through the end of March 2022.

I'm looking at booking a cruise in April 2022.  Do you think that NCL may extend the 60 day pay in full date past the current March timeframe into April?

NCL might change it.  But I wouldn't count on it!

So someone leaving on a 4/1/2022 cruise needs to pay in full by December 1, 2021 and someone leaving on a 3/31/22 cruise needs to pay in full by January 30, 2022.

 

Seems kind of crazy.

We're living in the Covid era.  There are a lot of "crazy" things.

I am fortunate.  Our next cruise leaves 3/20/22 so we are getting a break.  Need to wait as long as possible because my wife is against going for now.  We went on the Jade in Greece in July and a few things soured her on cruising now.  We need to see what COVID protocols will be.  Again we are on the first cruise on the ship at restart.  We were on the first Jade sailing and this will be the first Jewel sailing.

 

I am really looking forward to it though.  I think the itinerary is great and we will be stopping at 6 new ports for us (Panama canal cruise).

Checked this morning and the April payment date is now 60 days for the cruise I'm looking to book, so I'm pretty happy!  (Payment in Full date is February 9 for the April 10th cruise.)

We are booked for an April 3, 2022 cruise….I just went on the website and see that our final payment due date has been changed from December 2,  2021 to February 2, 2022……so… check your account!

 

PS we were never notified of this change by NCL.

First time Norwegian Cruiser here. ....

 

Will Norwegian contact me, or will have to keep an eye on Final Payment date on my own?

Not a big deal, but was just wondering

They probably won't notify you if it changes - they would be more than happy to have your money early.  You should get a reminder that your payment is due, unless you booked through a ta.

I always just capture the due date and put it as an event in my online calendar. Can't forget it then. Hope everyone enjoys their cruises.

Mike, I do always put the date about 5 days prior to the due date, just to be sure.  Hope you enjoy your cruise.  My next cruise in April, so looking forward to it.  Cheers

Just a friendly & cautionary reminder for "newbies" about NCL's Covid-19 final payment and cancellation deadline, as amended & pushed back for sailings now thru April 30, 2022 (instead of March 31, 2022) - with final payment for sailings or 7 days or more, depending ***** on ... at 60 days prior (instead of 120 days) for mini suites / club balconies and balconies or below ... 

 

The cancellation deadline is 1 day earlier at 61 days - otherwise, on day 31 thru day 60, the penalty is 75%.  Sailings on/after May 1, 2022 is on a different timetable, as show below - read and kindly refer to it for details, to avoid nasty & costly surprises.  Happy planning, dreaming, safe travel and healthy cruising ... we got till mid/late January to decide to proceed or cancel & change with zero penalty, and to track any (unlikely) price drop and add/change our bundled freebie "perks" etc. etc. 

 

***** Refer to this official schedule link for details - https://www.ncl.com/about/cancellation-fee-schedule

Many Thanks to all......I've marked my calendar.

 

I'm really looking forward to cruising NLC!

Does NCL send you a reminder when payment is due? My due date has changed and I'm afraid it may change back and I will miss my final payment date.

Yes they send a reminder.  No , they won't change it back.

Thank you for the reply. I am glad they send a reminder. Last year they changed the payment due date on me twice so they can change it back, they did it in the past.
