moki'smommy Posted May 8, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 8, 2016 We are doing a B2B for a total of 20 nights. Can the Captain's Club host arrange for any unused time on the first leg to roll over to the second leg or is it a "use it or lose it" situation?

Rare dickinson Posted May 9, 2016 #2 Share Posted May 9, 2016 (edited) When we did a b2b we spoke with the internet manager. He said it would and it did. Check with the internet manager on your ship. Edited May 9, 2016 by dickinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hpeabody Posted May 9, 2016 #3 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Not a "use it or lose it" situation. The transition from one cruise segment to the other was automatic and pretty seamless for me recently. On my cruise the first segments remaining minutes carried over automatically to the next segment. When they were used up it went into the minutes for the second segment. I am given X amount of minutes due to my captains circle status. You do not say if you are paying actual $$$ or not. I don't think it should make a difference. If you are concerned or if it does not go right for you the person you want to see is the INTERNET CAFE MANAGER. The captains circle host/hostess will most likely refer you to the internet cafe manager. I find the Internet cafe managers are generally quite good to work with. This was my experience YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted May 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 9, 2016 We were told on the Emerald Princess that the B2B procedure with regard to Internet is now standard on all ships. Whether I trust that is another matter. But here is what we were told: You get one set of Internet minutes per booking number. Unused minutes automatically roll over to the next booking number when doing B2B cruises. If doing three or more cruises in a row, minutes from Cruise #1 must be fully used and Cruise #2 minutes "purchased" before the end of Cruise #2 or you forfeit the minutes from Cruise #2, and so on.

Check with the internet manager on your ship. Thanks! That's what I was hoping. Our minutes will be purchased (paid for in real money), not a benefit from sufficient cruises to qualify...although by the end of these, we will qualify on the next round.

paul929207 Posted May 9, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 9, 2016 We were on the Royal Princess for a pair of 10 day cruises. Unused minutes carried over with no effort on our part. It will probably not be a problem, but you must sign into each account during the cruise the minutes are awarded for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmak8 Posted May 9, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 9, 2016 We've had several B2B cruises and the minutes rolled over. Any problems, see the internet manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted May 9, 2016 #9 Share Posted May 9, 2016 On our last b2b, the minutes did not roll over. They did on our previous 2b2. The difference was that we switched cabins on the most recent one and had the same cabin on the previous b2b. They were both short cruises, so we did not run out of minutes. It's possible that we could have gotten them switched over to our new cabin, but I didn't try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
