boilerupcruiser Posted July 25, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Will be on the Royal in November. Is it best to book another cruise for January while on board or would it be better to book the cruise now? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

jasbo49 Posted July 25, 2017 #2 Share Posted July 25, 2017 I would book now. Lots of good cabins will disappear between now and November. When you board in November, you can go to the Future Cruise desk and buy a Future Cruise Deposit and ask them to rebook your January cruise using that. That will give you some onboard credit. The FCD costs $100, but serves as your deposit for whatever you book. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted July 25, 2017 #3 Share Posted July 25, 2017 January is one of the slowest cruising times in the Caribbean (rock bottom pricing). If there is a lot of availability, I would wait until after final payment. Travel agents can tell you if the ship is getting full or not. If it is full, I would not wait.

I would suggest checking with Princess and your TA before trying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted July 25, 2017 #5 Share Posted July 25, 2017 If you have a preferred cabin, might as well book it now as it may not be available anymore in November. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
