akf84 Posted March 24, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Sorry, but I could not find a cut and dry answer to my question. I'm hoping some of you may have first hand knowledge of this! I have a little over 100,000 RC Visa points at the moment. We are cruising Oceanview on the Freedom in November 2013. It looks as though the best option is to use 75,000 points for the companion fare. Question is... can I use the remaining 25,000 points for OBC on the same cruise? And what if I earn another 5,000 or 10,000 points? Can I later add those on to the same sailing as well? Is there a limit to how many rewards can be used for one cabin? Any advice is appreciated! This is my first time sailing on RC! Very excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLSFAN83 Posted March 24, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 24, 2013 I wouldnt call it combining points, I think most would have thought you meant RC points from one account with RC points from another. Anyways, yes you can get the companion cruise, OBC, etc. I have done a companion fare, 1 OBC credit from my points and 1 OBC from my parents leftover. My next cruise I am doing the free cruise, 1 OBC and then most likely a last second OBC from remaining points I expect to hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devvt Posted March 24, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Yes, you can use as many points as you wish, in any possible combination, on any cruise - fare reduction, companion fare, OBC, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLACRUISER99 Posted March 24, 2013 #5 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Will you get C & A credit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailingDeanna Posted March 24, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Yes, I have also combined points like this. It works great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ama-sam Posted March 24, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Yes, you can use as many points as you wish, in any possible combination, on any cruise - fare reduction, companion fare, OBC, whatever. If my math is correct, I found that I could get a better "deal" using fare reduction that the free companion fare. A few more points will be used, but my discount is greater.

daytona Posted March 24, 2013 #8 Share Posted March 24, 2013 The conditions of some of the awards say they may not be combined with other awards or available during Christmas/New Years sailings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
