DP Posted December 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Next year I will qualify for a free cruise. Can it be applied to a Thanksgiving cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted December 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Yes, but it has a limit of $1200 per person, with no balcony discount applied. It may also have to be applied to a minimum 7-day cruise, but I'm not sure about that part. Edited December 2, 2015 by clarea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PC Complimentary cruises can be applied to a longer cruise and they are not restricted to just Caribbean sailings.

What happens if you already have the cruise booked?? Do they take the "up to" $1200pp off?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DP Posted December 2, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted December 2, 2015 I was told by head office that I can apply certificate to a booked cruise but let them know so they can make a record of it and that way they lock in the price. I just booked a cruise for next year while onboard the Allure. I got the BOGOHO price but for this promotion they do not apply balcony discounts but instead give $300 OBC. Can you keep the OBC for complimentary cruises? Since I am still onboard the Allure I cannot get answers from personnel onboard. Do I still pay fees and taxes?

Yes, you would call the D+ desk and then ask for the Pinnacle Resolutions Rep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARCruisinNana Posted December 2, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 2, 2015 What happens if you already have the cruise booked?? Do they take the "up to" $1200pp off?? Yes. I had booked my Thanksgiving cruise 18 months ago. I had a JS at a very good price. In March I had my PC certificate and was pleased that I could use it for a Thanksgiving cruise. At that time the lowest balcony price was was $1199pp. This was applied to my booking and brought my cruise down to $600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can keep OBC from booking a cruise onboard, but don't know about other OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you keep the OBC for complimentary cruises? Since I am still onboard the Allure I cannot get answers from personnel onboard. Do I still pay fees and taxes? That is what I was told also (notating the booking to lock in price) and I did that for my pinnacle cruise next year. It is my understanding that they will not allow you to use the balcony discount, but can keep OBC from promotions or from next cruise. In our instance, we are doing an 11 night cruise in a suite. So they will prorate the lowest balcony price on our cruise as if it were a 7 night cruise and give us the value for that. Yes, you would call the D+ desk and then ask for the Pinnacle Resolutions Rep.

They are more flexible with PC Members now when booking your complimentary cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
