jeanlyon Posted April 27, 2020 #2 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I;m not sure I understand the question. You paid the final balance to the Travel Agent but they didn't pay P&O? Is that correct. when is the cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denarius Posted April 27, 2020 #3 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I assume that you paid the balance of your cruise costs to your agent for them to pass on to P&O but P&O cancelled your cruise before they did so. Your agent should return the money they are holding on your behalf in full and deal with P&O in respect of your deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeanlyon Posted April 27, 2020 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) OK, now I understand. Your Travel Agent needs to refund you the money. quite simple. Edited April 27, 2020 by jeanlyon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your situation shows one of the disadvantages of using a third party. Part of the reason that Travel Agents are able to provide discounts is that they ask for balances some time before P&O actually requires it, so as your balance hadn’t reached P&O it wouldn’t be reasonable, IMO, to expect P&O to give you an extra 25% on money that they never received. I would think that your best bet is to express your disappointment to the travel agent and hope that they might give you some additional discount on your next booking, by way of a goodwill gesture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
