Book for 2 passengers or 3?

[nycruise1]

Will not be booking under early saver or another penalty rate and will only book one room, for either 2 or 3 people.

If we book for 3 passengers now and then 1 cant go (before penalty period), do we keep current 2 person rate or is this a rebooking at the then prevailing 2 person rate?

Or we book for 2 passengers now and then add 1 later, do we get the current 3 person rate or is this a rebooking at the then prevailing 3 person rate?

 

Rates are good now for the fall so I would like to keep these current rates in either instance.

I would book for three. You don't want to book for 2, then if number 3 figures out they can go find out they can't be added.

No, definitely will not require rebooking at a new rate should #3 drop out.  You get the third person rate at whatever it is when you book them.  As noted, it is possible a 3rd person can't be added  later and with just 2 persons in a 3 person room, you have a chance of being moved to a 2 person cabin.  It isn't a huge risk but it is a chance

Bookings can be limited at a future date due to capacity. Therefore, book 3 now

I would book for 3. 

 

1. You don't want to accidentally end up in a cabin that only has the occupancy for 2 and then need to add a third

2. If the cruise suddenly starts booking up you may run into capacity issues that prevent you from adding a third

3. If you book 3, you lock in the rate for all 3; cancelling the third shouldn't change that. I do think that if you book 2 and try to add a third you might have to pay the rate at the time for the third person later.
