TropicalIslandGirl1981 Posted April 30, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Well that's a given Lol. Meaning what happens if I lose my room and now have to reschedule everything? Do I get the same price I was locked in at? Or am I going to have to pay more because they canceled?

Royal usually gives you some sort of consideration towards another cruise. Could be OBC, percentage discount on fares, rebooking another cruise at your same rate, etc. They should contact you with details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovesthebeach2 Posted April 30, 2014 #5 Share Posted April 30, 2014 We've had that happen to us. Apparently someone decided to charter that ship for that week so we all got the boot. We never re-booked that trip. I guess I don't blame RCCL but it still was a letdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nascarcruiser Posted April 30, 2014 #7 Share Posted April 30, 2014 You have plenty of time to regroup and rebook. You have over 6 months until you sail. Sorry but its not the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean Boy Posted April 30, 2014 #12 Share Posted April 30, 2014 At least you have a good length of time to prepare for the change. Imagine how folks feel when their cruise gets cancelled with very short notice as happened to folks when Allure went into an unscheduled repair of its center pod.

Imagine how folks feel when their cruise gets cancelled with very short notice as happened to folks when Allure went into an unscheduled repair of its center pod. I can't even imagine. That's awful. What does royal usually do for all those passengers who have booked, paid for flights, shuttles, hotels etc? What happens when someone has picked a particular room and is not available on the next available itinerary?

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk PIA? Maybe but it's not like you canceled for a bogus reason or medical emergency. At some point in time we all have to or will have to reschedule a vacation. Disappointing yes, the end of the world no. You will have a better idea now than you did of how things work when you reschedule. Sorry with all the other issues in the world right now being upset about this to me seems petty. There are people where I'm at dealing with the aftermath of tornadoes no homes loss if life. That's something to be upset over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy oooo Posted April 30, 2014 #15 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Our cruise was canceled on the Norwegian Pearl for Feb 15 because now the Pearl is the chartered ship for Sixthman Music charters. stinks, but now we are on the Independence. Glad to be back to RCCL for a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk Take a deep breath, and don't make any hasty decisions. Wait until you hear what RCI is offering as compensation before you rebook. I agree, if you've already booked hotel, air, etc., it's a nuisance. We had a cruise get cancelled (for repairs) about three weeks before we were due to sail, and trying to get everything undone and rescheduled to salvage vacation was a pain!

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk I believe in that particular instance with the Allure they were offered an equivalent room for their booked price on their choice of the nearby Florida-departing ships, and possibly OBC, but I may be mistaken.

ryano Posted April 30, 2014 #19 Share Posted April 30, 2014 There are people where I'm at dealing with the aftermath of tornadoes no homes loss if life. That's something to be upset over. We could ALL recall instances where people arent doing well now or are less fortunate. The OP is new to cruising and is a little upset that her cruise got cancelled. While its not the end of the world for sure, do you REALLY have to be rude? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the tornadoes and their aftermath are horrific -- definitely something to be upset about. However, this is a cruise board, and if someone's upset about something they have every right to vent and ask questions about it here. Is a cancelled cruise terrible in the big picture? No, but that's not the purpose of Cruise Critic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this logic none of us in any 1st world country should ever complain about anything :rolleyes:. OP, I'm sorry your 1st cruise was cancelled. I know if mine had been it would have been a huge PIA since it involved 11 family members traveling from as far away as China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
