To late to cancel

[lhanson38]

My DH and I should be leaving for a quick 4 day cruise on Monday. I can not go. He still can but doesn't really want to. This cruise was booked so we would go D+ before our TA next mth. If we don't go will we still get the points? no point in Canceling wouldn't get anything but port fees back anyway.

You only get the points if you actually sail.

Only the person who cruises gets the points.

 

However, if you are linked in C&A, you will still get your spouse's C&A level when they move up.

Go ahead and tell him to go.  That way y'all get the points.

How do you know if you are linked?

What Bob said!

 

My wife has cruised a few more times than me on Girl Cruises and has more points but we both show up in our cruises with her level. I would check with RCI if he does go alone to make sure you are linked as members of the same household! Do that before he sails. That way you will be good to go for your TA.

If you are linked and he has the same number of points in his own right he will accrue the necessary points.

 

However he will get double points if he sails solo.

He does not have to sail alone.  You can change one of the names on the reservation and he can bring along a friend. It could be a fun "guys trip" if he has a friend that could make it.

Guys don’t usually do that. Unless it is a son or grandson. I sale often with a friend and no way we would share a cabin. We both get separate solo cabins.

Guess it would depend on the "guys"!

I have shared a room with a friend many times.  If I was paying for two people no matter what I would definitely look to bring a friend along.

As a heterosexual male (not sure why biomedbob included quotes around guys) over the years, I have shared cabins with guy friends.  I also did several cruises with a friend that happened to be a female on cruises and hotel rooms

 

When I worked for the Air Force, to get approval for attending certain conferences and training , to meet per diem hotel requirements, two of us guys would share a hotel room. 

 

It is all about the personal budget.

 

I have a couple of other examples when I have share rooms think college dorm rooms and apartment rooms during college but post dorms.

If hubby sails alone, one of the port tax amounts will be refunded.....probably as an OBC.   I think it's a good idea for him to go to get the points.

[dswallow]

Plus as he'll be traveling solo in a double occupancy cabin he's going to earn an extra point per night.

Have you ever sailed without your husband?  If so you will have more points than him and while he will earn points it will be added to his total and not yours.  Depending on your situation, even if he takes this cruise it may not get you to D+.

[John&LaLa]

Whst ship is it?

[Billy Baltic]

I could offer my services as a travel buddy. I’m sure my wife would understand in the circumstance. I don’t know much about US sports but given a topic I can study up and pretend to support any team. I can also drink beer if I really have to.

 I believe the taxes and port fees are returned to the passenger who cancels, using the same form of payment that was used to pay for the cruise.

So you spent hundreds to get minimal benefits?

We stayed onboard in Labadee on our last Oasis cruise, and we got a OBC within 24 hours refunding the Port Fees.

These were a refund of port fees to passengers on an ongoing cruise.

 

However, when someone is a no show, their port fees get credited back to the credit card that originally paid those fees.
