B2B/Same Vessel/Different Itineraries

[Hunding]

Info please (and TIA): Contemplating Regatta B2Bs next summer and have a few questions. (1) Is it necessary to disembark the ship from the first leg? (2) Is there a credit because of the second round-trip air ticket being unnecessary?

[LHT28]

It depends on the Country.

We had to disembark in U.S.A port on turn around day but only for a short time.

If in Europe I am not sure how they do it

You do not need to pack up if that is what you are worried about.

 

You do get an air credit & 5 % discount for the B2B

Ask your TA for specific details

We have been on several BtoB's and have never had to get off the ship while in Europe. You can,however, get off for the whole day or whatever amount of time you wish or you can enjoy the empty ship and empty laundry room.:D

I am doing a B2B in Nov., and I did not get a discount, my TA said we got a good price. As I recall it was the price I found on the Oceania website. How can I find out if I am due a rebate and discount. Thanks for any help.

When you book a back to back, there is a 5% discount, which should be reflected on both of your invoices. If you are using Oceania's air, you receive an air credit for half of the air fare, and you pay 1/2 the air tax on each sailing.

 

My suggestion would be to check again with your TA.

Thanks for the information Sharicruz, I have emailed my TA and checked my invoice (I only have one) I am on the Nov 1st Athens to Barcelona and then Barcelona to Miami. Oceania air Tampa to Athens and Miami to Tampa. Will let you know what I hear. Thanks for the info.

I e mailed my TA she said she would call Oceania but said discount was in price. I paid the full on line price with no perks. If I don't hear anything by Friday I will call Oceania my self.

Leonardray,

 

I just went on the Oceania website and looked at their calender, so I could check the dates you booked. The reason you only have one invoice, and it does not show a back 2 back discount, is because you are on a grand voyage. The discount is in the price. I'm sorry you did not recieve any amenities on your sailing.

 

Hope this helps~
