fairywren Posted July 8, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) I will have a cash account onboard with my already pre-purchased OBC. Can I have the foreign currency amounts I want to buy for the various ports deducted from the OBC or do I have to get the cash from the casino first?

Ourusualbeach Posted July 8, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Buy your foreign currency ahead of time. Royal charges ridiculously high exchange rates. If you have a cash account you can get your money out in US $ at the casino no charge. Take the extra US$ home with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairywren Posted July 8, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Thank you for your advice. What I was actually asking is if it is posssible to buy small amounts of foreign currency from my onboard cash account. Not worried about the exchange rate on a few dollars :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairywren Posted July 8, 2015 Author #4 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Well I guess I will find out when I get onboard :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea_Salt_Sailor Posted July 8, 2015 #5 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Thank you for your advice.

Not worried about the exchange rate on a few dollars :) Royal charge the on board account in US$, if you withdraw money in the casino will be given to you in US$ plus a % for service. Front desk might exchange US$ currency for Euros or other currency but very limited as the entire vessel runs in US$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted July 8, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Well I guess I will find out when I get onboard :rolleyes: The ship is not really a currency exchange. They will try to help, but I would not depend on them having what you need. I would instead try to use an ATM in the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
