Sharon in AZ Posted September 13, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 13, 2023 September 2024 probably doesn’t qualify for the early booking bonus since there are Spring 2025 Mexican cruises available. When checking out the cruise on the HAL website it will say if it has one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have already used it once, or are applying it to more than cruise at the time, it needs to be applied "manually" (my PCC's term), which she was going to do. She asked that I forward her my SHEER confirmation email as our AARP number wasn't showing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, then yes, and it shows up on the website like this: I would check with your agent to confirm that you received the Early Booking Bonus.

You can get both, BUT, you have to book when the cruises are first released to get the Mariner Society bonus (I think it is within 90 days of release). I believe April 2025 cruises have been out longer than that, but worth looking into. https://www.hollandamerica.com/en/ca/cruise-deals/mariner-early-booking-bonus 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BermudaBound2014 Posted September 13, 2023 #9 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Looks like HAL released their 2025 west coast itineraries on April 11, 2023. The early Mariner society booking bonus is only good for 90 days (expired in July). Your cruise will quality for the early booking bonus which includes gratuities with HIA, but I would be surprised if they honored the Early Mariner Society Booking Bonus this late. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
