blgsiebe Posted July 17, 2017 #26 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Hello, blgsiebe. We did book the cruise and our air through Princess, and they are hanging onto the pre-paid airfare to apply to the replacement cruise. Since that's next August, we can't book air until sometime this September. They offer up to $500 each in change fees if necessary. Keep in mind that your cabin choices will be very limited if you sail out of Berlin. In our case, being upgraded to a suite, there were only three suites available, and I don't think the aft-facing one would have been available to us. The bulk of the cabins are set aside for Copenhagen departures, which they consider the main place to start the circuit. Did you hear back from Princess yet? I have no idea how many cabins they were trying to free up. Jim Hi Jim, Just got the call. Were given option to wait for choosing replacement sailing and also to take a longer sailing by paying a prorated per diem rate based on the original class we booked, so we have accepted. We are going to peruse other sailings and maybe find a bucket list trip! Thanks! Blgsiebe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a bucket lister for me. We cruised the canal once, but I really want to go somewhere on the Pacific. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasbo49 Posted July 17, 2017 Author #29 Share Posted July 17, 2017 When did you make the call,? I called friday at 8am eastern time and am still waiting! This is very stressful! I hope you hear back from them. That's a long time "sitting by the phone." And that's something that was never answered for me: Do they bother calling people back just to let them know they've missed the boat? Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klannin Posted July 19, 2017 #31 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I called about 9pm Eastern on Thursday. Hope you hear soon! Thanks All, she did call, and we did get the Move Over deal for a cruise to South America in December, we had first leg, now we have both, we paid a proration for the extra 3 days. We also were able to get another cruise for the same time so we will still be going to Baltic. Hope we all have a great trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
