Another Waitlist Question

[thepla]

I see several threads and see waitlist with donwpayment has prioity. What I would like to know if cruise price goes up am I locked into price when I waitlist?

AFAIK  you pay the price  it is  at the time you clear the waitlist

Waitlist with payment = priority waitlist

Waitlist without payment = normal waitlist

 

When the priority waitlist is cleared, it will be based on the fare on that day. You will be given a deadline (I think it is 48 hours) to make a decision. If you do not accept the fare, you can decline it and receive refund on the deposit.

 

Unforuntately it is not possible to lock the price when you create the waitlist at the beginning.

Our October cruise has been “ waitlisted “ in every category for over a year. Waitlisted right through final payment date. I’m now waiting to see what waitlisted means. Will we have a full 680 passengers, 600, or 400? To what capacity is Oceania booking the ships? Time will tell.

Yep, completely waitlisted. Can't wait to see how many are on Sirena 11/18/22. I suspect a full ship at 100% passenger capacity. People are really wanting to travel.

Our recent cruise to Bermuda was 96%, so I don't think they are restricting capacity much at all.
