Rare Ryan82 Posted October 25, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I know cruise lines like package hotel companies will offer different deals for different markets. Is it allowable to book a cruise as a UK passenger on a different countries website. Have seen on MSC Austria they're offering a ten percent discount as well as other discounts not available in UK.

HipHipOnAShip Posted October 25, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 25, 2022 The issue with doing this is that the default country of origin is the host country. For example given the exchange rate and promos it is much cheaper to book on the Italian website but I cannot change the country and I fear that the booking would be compromised.

Rare Ryan82 Posted October 25, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Thanks - good heads up. Yes if you cannot change the country you live in (address) that would be problematic. What a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikita4 Posted October 25, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 25, 2022 You can book with a TA in a country with smaller prices/more promos. We live in a european country and book always trough a TA in an other european country. No problem! Once I was booking with MSC direct, our country had a better promo for a short solo cruise. They saw in the system that normally I book in a other country and also my VC-Account is in this country, but it was no problem to book in our and normally in a other country. But I have to log me in the other country in my MSC account. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheycallmeDrew Posted October 25, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 25, 2022 I had this exact issue booking in US but living in Canada. I had to call a couple of times but finally got a great customer service rep who was able to fix the situation with me on the phone and I was able to get my cruise docs.
