Deposit refund??

[tamara01]

My final payment is due the end of August - but if I need to cancel my cruise before final payment, do I get my deposit back? I booked directly thru RCCL online. I know I could probably research this question but I am on my phone and it is hard to search so thought I would just post a quick question in case someone knows the answer. I haven't called RCCL yet since I am at work. Just curious if I would need to transfer my deposit to a future cruise or just ask for the refund, if possible?

 

thanks

Yes, if you made your booking before July 1, you would receive a full refund of your deposit if you cancel before final payment date.

Unless you are in the U.K. and booked through the UK site, in that case you will loose your full deposit.

I booked our October 2017 transatlantic back in May of 2016. Final payment is due this August. Today, out of the blue, I received an updated invoice from RCCL via email. Having made no changes to my reservation, I compared today's invoice to my previous invoice. The only change was that today's invoice states that my deposit is nonrefundable and that there is a $100 fee per person for ship or sail date changes.

If you are sailing in a suite, that may have been an automatically generated comment. On July 1st, they made suite deposits non-refundable. That said, since you booked before they did this, you should still be able to call and get a refund.

Not a suite, just a regular balcony. Not too concerned about it since final payment is due in a couple weeks anyway.
