Switching Princess Booking to TA

[geoherb]

I know it's possible to switch the booking I made directly with Princess over to a TA. I just wondered if they should offer something in return.

 

I made the booking a couple of weeks ago after the final payment date when I could not get in touch with my regular TA.

Yeah they should, a cheaper fare!

I agree with Colo cruiser. You should get a cheaper fare.

After final payment has been made, I think the T/A would have to agree to accept the booking, as the T/A may receive a reduced commission.

I heard back from two travel agents. Both said basically it wasn't possible after the final payment date. And they said the price we paid was good.

 

I was hoping to get maybe another $25 in onboard credit. We'll have a great time without it.

I don't think he can transfer after final.

True dat Princess considers it a done deal @ final payment

Hey Geoherb!

 

Hope you two have a great trip planned-where are you going? We are off on a 14 day cruise on the Ocean in September...can't wait!

 

We had originally booked the above cruise with Princess, but turned it over before final to a TA...the price I had gotten last year was unbelievable and they could not come close, but I did get some nice on-board credit.

 

Say hi to DH...hope you are enjoying the beach!!:)

They could offer you a lower price and possibly some perks like obc's.....:):):)

We're going to Alaska on the Sapphire Princess. Seven nights roundtrip from Seattle.

 

I've enjoyed Surf City. It's rented for the next few weeks. If there's not a booking at the end of the month we'll be back down there for a long weekend.

 

Barb was one of the TA's I contacted. She and Jim were on a Royal Caribbean cruise the day I tried to call her--before I booked directly with Princess. Sounds like a rough life.
