Ptroxx Posted January 25, 2022 #2 Share Posted January 25, 2022 It’s at 30 days right now if I’m not mistaken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All final payment dates for everyone were automatically changed by Royal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheryltx Posted January 25, 2022 #6 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I got an email from Priceline stating my final payment is due February 5th for our May 16th cruise. Do they have different rules than the cruise line? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longhorn Cruiser Posted January 25, 2022 #8 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Royal Caribbean announced it has extended the final payment window to 30 days-to-sailing (DTS) for April and May 2022 departures (excluding China & Singapore departures). Prior to this change, the final payment had only been pushed back for cruises through March 31, 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddyfish Posted January 25, 2022 #9 Share Posted January 25, 2022 When i log in to my Voyager april 24 sailing the payment date still is feb 8th. European sailing and booking. So maybe other rules apply here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I booked with a US TA. I just did a mock booking for your sailing here on Royal's Portuguese website and it does show final payment as being 8th February, so it looks as though it is related to the market you booked in rather than your cruise destination.

Do they have different rules than the cruise line? The final payment date set by Royal is 30 days. travel agencies are free to set whatever dates they want. They want to keep it at 90 because once final is made they get their commission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She said her agency hadn't changed the rules to align with RC yet. And sure enough, I was charged at 45 days even though my actual receipt still says I have until the 30 day mark to make final payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longhorn Cruiser Posted January 25, 2022 #14 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Why not just tell the travel agent you will be switching the booking to another agent or back to Royal if they don't abide by Royal's new 30 day rule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that would be grounds for Royal taking a reservation away from an agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheryltx Posted January 26, 2022 #16 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I called Priceline and the agent confirmed that they will abide by Royal Caribbean's new 30 day rule. She said it may still show up as the original due date, but assured me our reservation would not be cancelled if we decide to wait until 30 days out.

Starry Eyes Posted January 26, 2022 #17 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I am hoping Royal changes the final payment for June cruises to 30 days fairly soon. Otherwise, I’ll be paying for my June cruise before May cruisers pay for theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
