RecoveryDude Posted March 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Hi! I’m cruising on HOTS in September - couple questions about using cruise planner: 1. If I buy a beverage package now, online, and later notice a “sale” - will they credit me back the difference, either on my credit card or as OBC? 2. Can I cancel an excursion after buying it (before the cruise) or are they non-refundable? 3. I never pre-buy stuff with Carnival as they add FL sales tax if you pre-buy, however, if you wait until ur in international water, you save the tax. Is this the same on RCCL? Thanks all!!

Clarea Posted March 31, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 31, 2018 If the price of a package (or excursion,dining, etc.) goes down, they will not give you a credit, you have to cancel and reorder. You can cancel anything pre-purchased with the Cruise Planner up to 3 days before the cruise. No state sales tax is added to anything purchased pre-cruise with the Cruise Planner.

katiel53 Posted March 31, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 31, 2018 If you purchase a beverage package and the price goes down, just as Bob stated, you need to cancel and rebook it. Just keep in mind, that it takes a few days for the credit to show up on your credit card, whereas the charge shows up right away. The only reason I mention this is that there is a long thread where someone is complaining because he has/had to wait a few days and he wanted OBC. It's just like every other credit card purchase that takes time for the credit to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB_NJ Posted March 31, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 31, 2018 FYI, there can be an exception for some excursions where you need to cancel further in advance, just be careful or ask about a specific excursion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted March 31, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Just cancel the purchase online. Then re-purchase with the discount. There are usually discounts as your cruise date gets closer. But, if it is a very popular and sold out excursion, you may lose it during this process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
