39august Posted March 11, 2020 #1 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Now the wording on X's website explaining the "Cruise with Confidence" says FCC can be used for "new bookings" Has anyone cancelled today and been able to apply FCC to an existing booking? As we know Fain's press release specifically said existing bookings were covered for the FCC. I believe that the FCC 75% in the cancel for any reason travel policy can cover existing bookings, as I used it once a few years ago and did use it for an existing booking. I guess that will remain an option with my cruise line travel insurance. I was counting on getting the 100% back though. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is so, it is a change from what was originally communicated publically and to travel professionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted March 11, 2020 #3 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Our paperwork says new or existing bookings..But we did not yet receive our Certificate yet. Plan to hold X to terms of our cancellation. Later programs may differ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted March 11, 2020 Author #4 Share Posted March 11, 2020 When did you cancel, please? You are getting a paper certificate and then having to call again to apply it? Seems cumbersome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Georgia_Peaches Posted March 11, 2020 #5 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Dang. I hope this is not the case. If we end up canceling our April 11 Infinity cruise I was hoping to use FCC on an existing booking we have for March 2021 to Panama Canal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oville Posted March 11, 2020 #6 Share Posted March 11, 2020 (edited) I posted this Sunday on another thread. It is from the Cruise with Confidence description on the website. “From “Terms and Conditions”: The FCC certificate’s value may be applied toward the cruise fare due on a new booking on the brand originally purchased.” Edited March 11, 2020 by Oville Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted March 11, 2020 #7 Share Posted March 11, 2020 That may be an updated post on the FAQ. Our paperwork and recorded convo says new or existing Celeb sailing. But it is not the actual certificate which of course will be the final word...for the better, we hope. If not honored we'll use it up in a 3 or 5 day cruise in the allowed period as it is not a large amount. Devil is always in the details but relieved we cancelled.

Fouremco Posted March 11, 2020 #8 Share Posted March 11, 2020 When I cancelled on Sunday, this question was specifically posed to Celebrity by my PA and the response was an unequivocal "yes", that under the CWC policy the FCC can be applied to both new and existing bookings. This question has been asked and answered numerous times on numerous threads, always in the positive. As @hcat says, however, the proof of the pudding will be when the FCC's and their included provisions start arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
