Pstcrik Posted September 12, 2019 #51 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I dont know if I am having a senior moment or not. I have been using future cruise credits for years now and all of a sudden took notice of an up coming booking The booking confirmation shows fare plus taxes and fees and amount due. I am sure that when a future cruise credit was used that Princess deducted $100 from the amount due. However on the invoice I am looking at does not show the deduction and in fine print it is noted "Future Cruise Credits cannot be used towards payment of deposit (excluding Future Cruise Deposits). Is this new ? and I find (excluding Future Cruise Deposits) strange wording. I should have kept previous invoices for past cruises to see if $100 was deducted from invoice but know questioning .

I'm going to ask two specific questions in hopes someone can answer from experience. I read the FCD form linked to an earlier post, but did not see an answer. Situation: We have three Princess cruises scheduled right now. I have already made a deposit on each. I did not use an existing FCD for any of those three. I have paid the final payment on only one of the three (sailing Nov 2019). Q1. If, while on the November sailing, I purchase a FCD in my name, and another in my wife's name, will I get any OBC for any of our three scheduled cruises? Q2. Or can that OBC only be gained on something I have yet to book within the 2 year FCD program? I understand the two years specified on the FCD form is for booking a cruise, not actually departing on a cruise. We very often book a cruise 18 months in advance. I also understand if I do not book anything in those two years, the FCD I pay in Nov 2019 will be refunded to me in Nov 2021. Doug Q1 : No only future cruises. Q2 : Yes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
