xtaylorjean13 Posted May 8, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Alright..maybe I’m an evil person, but I can’t be the only one to have thought about this. Asking advice from anyone who may have had the same idea. My boyfriend, daughter, and I have cabin 7408 (the corner aft with the huge balcony.) My boyfriend’s mom wants to book the balcony room right next to ours (7410) with her boyfriend. The problem is it’s an E1 that requires 3 people. So my question is has any one booked an E1 with a kid as the third person and then just had the kid be a no show? I thought if they booked while the kids sail free promo was going on, they could add a kid to the reservation and then just have the kid be a no show at arrival. Tell me your thoughts people. I need advice. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 8, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 8, 2018 The child should be free during the KSF promo, however, some have reported that the first two guest's prices are higher when the child is added. Anyhow, there should be no problem having the child be a no show. You will get a refund of taxes paid for the child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted May 8, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 8, 2018 But will they let you keep the three person E1 cabin? I think it's highly unlikely they would make you move staterooms on boarding day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtaylorjean13 Posted May 8, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I think it's highly unlikely they would make you move staterooms on boarding day. I wonder if they would charge any kind of fine or penalty rate? I think it’s worth a shot. I don’t imagine they can do much once you’re there.

I've never seen any report of a fine or penalty in this situation, and believe me, if there ever was, we would hear about it on CC instantly.

Rare lazydayz Posted May 8, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 8, 2018 They don’t usually reassign cabins at the port unless something out of the ordinary is going on with your cabin. Agree with Bob about no penalties. We have had a no show or two over the years and always gotten a refund of taxes and port fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] I think Booking for three and showing up with two is the best thing to do Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bedford5 Posted May 8, 2018 #12 Share Posted May 8, 2018 We booked a royal suite on liberty of the seas and had to have 5 for the reservation but we only had 3. We booked direct with royal Caribbean and the agent told us to give them 2names and cancel them later. So that’s what we did and did not lose the suite.

Wine-O Posted May 8, 2018 #13 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I've booked a stateroom that could hold more than 2 people with only 2 people. They are a little bit more expensive than a 2-person stateroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
