I bit upset with DCL in this. We have Hawaii booked and could spread it over 2 cruises probably having to pay out of pocket for part of second. I just don’t get this policy?
Yes, if DCL CANCELS your cruise, you are eligible for a full refund. In that case, you can use those funds to pay for anything, including multiple shorter cruises.We have a July 2020 cruise paid in full on the Dream. If DCL cancels our cruise can we use that credit to pay for 2 shorter cruises within the next year?
Basically, it's "one for one". You have one cruise and you get a future credit if it's canceled to use on one future cruise.I bit upset with DCL in this. We have Hawaii booked and could spread it over 2 cruises probably having to pay out of pocket for part of second. I just don’t get this policy?
My take is that you couldn't. Since you can't use OBC for booking onboard (you must use a credit card, it's not charged to your onboard account), I'd think credit for this could also not be used.I didn't ask if you could buy your next placeholder with it, though, so not sure on that.
Makes sense.My take is that you couldn't. Since you can't use OBC for booking onboard (you must use a credit card, it's not charged to your onboard account), I'd think credit for this could also not be used.
Best answer - maybe.Anyone know if you could actually add another passenger to a future cruise? This would be a situation where all of the original passengers were also still cruising.
Best answer - maybe.
IF there's space in the room (can't put 5 people in a 4 person room)
IF there's space in the lifeboat for that room (there are more beds onboard than space in the lifeboats).
IF there's space in the appropriate kid's club (if applicable).
And, any people added will be at the prevailing price, not the price they would have been on the original reservation.
So you only had one room on the cancelled cruise? I believe the booking credit for the future cruise would only be for one room, in that case.Thanks. We'd be moving from one 4-5 person verandah room for my family of 5 to two of those same rooms adding my mother-in-law. So we'd have 6 in two 4-5 person rooms.
So it seems we should be good for all those questions.
OK, so they can split into two rooms, but the 6th person they are adding to one of the rooms, will be paying the cost that a 3rd person would cost now, and not what the 3rd person would have cost had they been on the original reservation.The credits are per person, not per room. You can book them how you like, but per person. If you wanted to go on a different cruise than your wife, you could, but you can't split the credits between two cruises.
