Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and hope to get some help for booking a free cruise with RCI.
My husband got a complimentary cruise offer from Club Royal during our most recent sail. We have 30 days to book a free cruise for two. We have selected a ship and itenary and only need to pay about $160 extra for the two of us. But because we have two kids (under 12) and definitely want to bring our kids with us on vacation. The total cost then becomes 2 extra cruise fare + upgrade to a 4 people cabin, which will cost over $2000 extra.
My questions would be, when RCI has "kids sail for free", or any other type of promotion, could it be applied to existing booking? It will save us a lot money if we could wait till promotions are out, but our offer has an expiry date.
Could I book the free curise just for me and my husband before our offer's expiry date and wait till later on when there are better promotions to add my two kids? Will our booking be eligible for the promotion then and will we risk not being able to secure a 4 person cabin?
If we book for 4 now and pay extra $2000, when there are promotions out, could we request price adjustment?
I also would like to know if we shall book with Club Royal directly or shall we book with a TA?
I really appreciate your help if you have any experince or knowledbe about adding people to free cruise offer.
Thanks so much!
