I booked a total of 6 cabins on a Princess ship through a travel site. The TA said no connecting cabins were available on the entire ship. I was on the official Princess site last night and saw there were connecting cabins and one such cabin was available and next to a cabin we already have a deposit on. I called the TA today and tried to switch the rooms around. She told me there would be a huge cost involved over $1500 for just one cabin change. I don’t understand this as they are all the same cabin class and in the same area of the ship. I had booked three cabins next to each other starboard and two cabins next to each other port side. I placed the two sets of cousins (2 in each cabin) in their 20s port side. My son’s family of six we placed in two cabins (3 in each cabin)next to my cabin (2 of us) on the starboard side, all the same class and category. The only available connecting room was next to one of the cousin rooms, so I wanted to get that room, move the family to the two adjoining rooms (one of which we already booked) and move the cousins to our rooms on the starboard side. In essence, all I was doing was getting one ‘new’ cabin and releasing one we had a deposit on. She said there would be a huge cost to this. One of the cabins, is completely paid for, does that make a difference? All of the others are just being held with deposits. The cruise is scheduled for over a year away. I know it would be a pain to change all the names on the cabins, but there are no new people or additional rooms or upgrades. Is this typical? If you want to change your room to the same class and category you have additional charges? Does anyone know if this is a princess policy? Or is this strictly from my TA? I have other family members who want to book, but will tell them to look for a more knowledgeable TA who knows the deck plans better. Ironically, I found out I am in a connecting cabin, of course I don’t know the people my cabin is connected with. I apologize for the length of this, but wanted to fully explain. Just hoping to find out if this is Princess or if I should be shopping for another TA for future cruises.
