Rare loriva Posted October 8, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2022 DH and I will be taking our first voyage with Viking Ocean on a "Viking Homelands" itinerary in May 2023. Viking, of course, modified the itinerary after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It provided an OBC in compensation for the changes. The OBC shows on the invoice sent by our TA but not on MVJ. We'd like to use the OBC potentially to book optional excursions when booking opens in 2023. Has anyone had experience with this? Should the OBC show on our MVJ? I thought they would show up when we made final payment in July, but no change. Do I need to call Viking (or have my TA do it)? Many thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks, They did move it in my viking journey since the last time we cruised. When you log in you need to go to payments and cart and then click payment method at the top. That is where ours is viewable. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duquephart Posted October 8, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 8, 2022 Where the Gulf of Finland ports included when you first booked? We got both OBC (only once aboard) and FCC (following completion of cruise) on ours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDR2001 Posted October 8, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2022 (edited) We completed Homelands in August, and our OBC didn’t show up until we were “onboard.” It never appeared on MVJ. We did not pay gratuities in advance so used the OBC for that while on the ship, as well as used some for an excursion booked onboard.
