OBC and canceling and rebooking Beverage/dining package.

[bobswife91]

I have some OBC that I have received from the RCCL credit card that I have used to prebook the 3 night dining package.  I also have some OBC applied to the beverage package.  If I cancel to rebook at a lower price will I lose my OBC?

No, the planner OBC gets credited right away after a cancellation.

Thank you.

Just wanted to Thank You again.  I cancelled and rebooked my 3 night dining package.  The OBC was credited back immediately.  I was able to rebook at 25% instead of my original 20%.

Hi. How long before your cruise was your OBC from RCCL card applied.

I have the same kind of OBC coming to me.

Once I cashed in for shared Obc on the BOA site, it was a couple of days.   Was glad to get it ahead of time to pre-book dining and beverage packages.  I'm not traveling until 2025.

OMG REALLY!!!! Thank you! I thought I read it would post 2-3 weeks in advance.
I'm sailing April 2025 so this would be so helpful to have now. Thank you and I'll keep looking!

I actually called the Customer Service number for posting the BofA points, and asked they be posted immediately so I could use them.  I had them the same day.

I have used credit card points for OBC on many cruises. I do it anywhere from 6-12 months in advance. The OBC usually posts to my account in 2 or 3 days. It actually showed up in less than 24hrs. once.

Thank you all so so much for this information and to the OP for starting this thread.

My BoA OBC has posted for my April 2025 Odyssey cruise! I'm so happy!

I have since found a lower priced 3 day dining, canceled, and rebooked again.  The OBC was credited back and I was able to rebook again using it.

5000 points will get you $50.00 OBC.

10,000 points will get you $100.00 OBC.
