Don't believe everything you see on FB. The old AD sailing from Gal was a 5 Night. They are seeing the oddities of bookings getting crossed. It is a multi step shift and when you only catch a glimpse of it....
We paid for lunch there, actually a snack. Nachos, poutine and fried pickles. The pickles were good but very small in portion size compared to the other 2 that we had. basically i pickle cut in 4
Nothing to do with deterring people. They are currently working on a new system that will allow you to cancel and rebook and they will refund you the difference.
I have prepaid a number of gratuities for clients this morning. The system is automatically set so that the old gratuity rates remain populated in bookings made prior to the cut off date. Bookings made after that date have the new gratuity rates loaded.
You don't even need to tell the rep you want tp prepay at the old rate...it will automatically come up
I will do it for even a couple of $ when I am paying with OBC as that goes back immediately. By credit card unless I'm saving more than $20 I generally don't worry about it
