KenP Posted November 19, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 19, 2016 I have a Future Cruise Credit (not future cruise deposit) from a canceled cruise. (platinum insurance, cancel for any reason). The future cruise credit amount exceeds the fare of next planned cruise. The excess is like 75 USD. What happens with the excess? Can it roll over to an onboard credit? Does the excess remain as a credit for a different future cruise? Is the credit just lost? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might be able to get customer relations to add the remaining as OBC. Do be aware that most credits have an expiration date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the last one I had to apply it all to one cruise, could not be split, and was use or lose. If the new cruise was cheaper the difference was lost.

That has a better chance of getting you the correct answer than asking here, I'll bet. ;) But if you do, I would suggest writing down the name of the person you spoke to along with the date & time of the conversation and what was asked and answered "just in case" something different occurs on the cruise itself!

We had booked one of the "get your cruise fare back as an OBC" promotions a few years ago on a West Coast cruise. We used the FCC on another cruise which paid for the cruise in it's entirety. We were able to refare the cruise later and the price dropped and something like $30 went back into our "bank" which we used on another cruise.

cherylandtk Posted November 20, 2016 #9 Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) We were issued a credit last year (for a cruise which did not go as well as Princess had expected). The paperwork said the credit was to be used for one future cruise booking within a set time period. We were not allowed to apply it to any of our already-booked cruises, it had to be a new booking. IIRC, the credit could only be used towards the fare portion, not taxes/fees. Edited November 20, 2016 by cherylandtk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
