COCKYMARK Posted December 7, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 7, 2021 When you apply points to a cruise how long until it is applied? did it 3 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare h20skibum Posted December 7, 2021 #2 Share Posted December 7, 2021 How far out is your cruise? I think they show up about 6 weeks before the cruise. You can call and ask that they make them available sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwayneb236 Posted December 7, 2021 #3 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) I did the same thing and waited and waited. Finally called and they told me it would show up something like 14 days before the cruise. I had asked when it was 16 days out and the next day it showed up. Not sure if my call pushed the guy to start something or it was just a coincidence but it's there now.

Ours has pretty much been right at the two week mark before the cruise. We've applied OBC with points on three cruises so far this fall, and only once did we get the OBC applied before the two week mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted December 7, 2021 #5 Share Posted December 7, 2021 They supposedly post them in the order they receive them, but they try to make sure that points are posted at least 2 weeks prior to your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted December 7, 2021 #6 Share Posted December 7, 2021 They changed a while back to issuing them 2 weeks before the cruise. When I had the card, I could call or even put a note in the comment when requesting the points to issue them immediately. And they usually showed up in a day.

COCKYMARK Posted December 7, 2021 Author #7 Share Posted December 7, 2021 If they wait till 2 weeks before the cruise to apply them...how does it work when you have to have the cruise paid off 3 months before your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted December 7, 2021 #8 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Wondering the same. I suppose if you pay off, they issue a refund to your card for the overpayment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRF Posted December 8, 2021 #9 Share Posted December 8, 2021 I was talking about using them for OBC. If you apply them to your cruise fare, it is within a couple of days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truffles2 Posted December 8, 2021 #12 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Good…I will be watching as final payment is due in a couple of weeks or less. Glad I found this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted December 10, 2021 #13 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Well, it took more than two days....more like three.... due to COVID no doubt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc1025 Posted December 10, 2021 #14 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Have done this a few times and at first it did not appear until the final due date for payment. But the last one we did was about three weeks after we applied. The process is a little more automated now so maybe that makes it easier to see it sooner.
