How best to use shipboard credits

[Lenbro1944]

Recently was able to receive $1000 shipboard credit. Since everything is included on Regent does anyone have suggestions how best to use them?

Best thing is to have a TA that gives a better price and no OBC

The price is fixed for all TA by Regent...but some do give a kickback to the client.

The shipboard credits was from Regent on one of their recent promotions. Trying to figure out how to best use them. I didn’t see any special premium excursions that were worthwhile using them for so looking for suggestions.

Things you enjoy, maybe a private car for touring is always nice.  But no matter what you use it for, the price of that product or service well be higher.

Paid excursions (including the Small Group alternatives); Premium wine; Spa treatments/products; Boutique purchases (perfume, clothes)

 

If you are on Splendor or Explorer you can use SBC for Culinary Arts classes

Wife had a very nice haircut and styling. Used a good portion of the OBC.

The lunch they hold with the premium wines is very nice if that is your thing. $169 each but you need to book with one of the wine servers at lunch on your first day as very popular.

If you are considering a Culinary Kitchen class, they can be used for those.

any way to use the credits in the casino????   

[labonnevie]

No.

Actually, if you have refundable credits available, you can withdraw the funds from reception, take the cash to the casino and give it back to them.

Spa. Boutique. High-end wine or whisk(e)y. Cigars. The wine lunch or one of the liquor tastings. Bingo. Regent Choice excursions. Cooking class on Explorer or Splendor. Buy a robe. 

 

One hopes not needed, but: the medical center.

That is where our OBC went to for COVID treatment.  But yes it can be used for any issues.

 

Also if you like CAVIAR - you can use it for a nice appetizer.  Our preference is to use the non refundable OBC on premium shore excursions.
