Thanks! Under US and Canadian booking conditions you can get price drops on both refundable and non refundable fares up until final payment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find the pushback is more for people looking to upgrade after final payment as there are very seldom cruises listed in the GGG sale that are more than 90 days out that would be eligible for price drops 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare vacationlover_mn Posted April 14, 2019 #7 Share Posted April 14, 2019 And, I know I should know this but... what if we want to change to a suite before final payment? Will we lose our deposit, or just pay the difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sj25 Posted April 14, 2019 #14 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Anyone tell me the fee that is added when you put names in and say you want refundable deposit is that part also refunded or is that a fee non refundable?

You don't see it in the initial stages of the booking. After you have done most of it, through selecting your cabin, after you have filled out the personal information, there will be a box to check (with a dollar amount) if you want the cruise to have a refundable deposit. It should be on the same page where you can select to prepay your gratuities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're missing it because Royal wants you to miss it. As explained above, you have to jump though hoops to see the option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always liked that you just booked and could change, cancel and didn't have to worry about all the changes..( I now don't book way out like I use to as soon as it came available....with most part didn't change but have ....but I know it is business and make more money any way they can.

There is no "fee" finally this makes sense to me. it's seemingly presented as a "fee", meaning press the button and pay $159 to get your full deposit back, but i guess that's just the difference in cruise pricing.
