Chacooe Posted December 13, 2009 #1 Share Posted December 13, 2009 When I was looking at for drops in cabin prices for my cruise in January on the Carnival Splendor, I noticed that the Government Fees had dropped from $70.57 to $59.79pp. I know that it is only $11.78 difference, but can we ask for that difference back as well. Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setme2sail Posted December 13, 2009 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Port charges can be adjusted up and down. Your sign and sail card will be charged or credited accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanatravel Posted December 13, 2009 #3 Share Posted December 13, 2009 You should at least ask for the reduced taxes & fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering. I think you are thinking that port charges are part of the taxes and fees added on. Port charges are not broken out, except by a few TAs, and are included in the cruise fare you bought and are not added on (at least they are not added on in over 10 years now, they used to be). Taxes and fees, if they went down, Id go and ask for the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After final payment the adjustments were credited back to my CC and prior to final payment they just adjusted the amount due. I noticed fees were added to our S&S account one time.

Mine went up on Ecstasy and my TA said they could add them to my S&S card if I didnt pay the difference. I had a price drop, and they agreed to take them out of the price drop last January. I thought no way they would add them to my S&S card, first Id heard they could .... interesting you post they did to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall the amount, but it was on S&S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
