Taxes and port charges

Hello

 

I have two questions about taxes and port charges. I don;t know if I really never paid attention before or if I just never purchased a cruise this far out.

 

The taxes and port fees on the cruise I am sailing on went down $54 from what I paid. I realize it is not a huge amount of money. BUT.......

 

I do have two questions:

1. is this normal and does it happen often?

2. what should I do if anything?

 

Thank you for your response and advice

Depends who you booked with and where you're from. Over in the uk it's a suck it up. If you're in the US you could ask for it reducing but be warned they may insist on reprising the whole cruise and you could lose perks. You don't get if you don't ask.

Thanks everyone.

 

I did make final payment even though it is not due until December. I emailed the TA and asked him to try and get them to give me an OBC.. I realize it is only $54 but hey better I should get it than Azamara

 

Have a great day & thanks again
