vm6514 Posted April 29, 2020 #1 Share Posted April 29, 2020 I booked my cruise directly myself. Now that RCC cancelled my cruise I Going forward I would like to use an qualified travel agency, one that is knowledgeable with Royal Caribbean re-booking FCC. My question is since the original booking was done by me can I now have an travel agency help me re-book? thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Fusion FoodsJ Posted April 29, 2020 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Yes you can. Just contact the travel agent of your choice and they can take care of it for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeW Posted April 29, 2020 #3 Share Posted April 29, 2020 (edited) The FCC is attached to your account so the travel agent can look it up once it is issued. You should also get an email with the FCC information. Haven't gotten ours yet. You can also book now pending the issue of the FCC. Royal is booking without a deposit while the FCC is being processed. Downside is you can't book anything in the Cruise Planner until you actually pay something for the new cruise.

boscobeans Posted April 29, 2020 #5 Share Posted April 29, 2020 You should get a certificate stating the amount of the credit for the cruise that was cancelled and it will have a document code . This is all you or you agent needs. Then when booking a new cruise at the check out stage there should be a place to enter the certificate code. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisb732 Posted May 1, 2020 #6 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I used credit from a canceled cruise earlier in the month for my August cruise. My credit was $1,373 a person for my wife and I. On the August cruise I owed $2,204.10. I went online and put my credit of $2,746 towards the cruise and later got these two receipts. I then checked online to see what my balance was and it said it was $132.32 instead of the $192.10 it said on the receipt, makes no sense! Does this make sense to anyone? Has anyone had a similar experience when using their future cruise credit? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll probably need to call RCI to make better sense of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vm6514 Posted May 2, 2020 Author #9 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Thank you all for help. I got an agency and they booked my cruise. I have a question . When I finally get my FCC, who applies the certificate to pay for the cruise. Does my agent do this, or do I? Thanks again for all your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onthewater51 Posted May 2, 2020 #10 Share Posted May 2, 2020 FY....we never received our FCC email. Coincidentally I called them yesterday to find the status having cancelled the cruise back on March 14 The RCL rep said our certificate was issued one week after we canceled and he told me the amounts we were expecting. He didn’t know why I never received an email. We asked for a confirmation email, which he could not do. He said the notes under our reservation reflect the FCC and all we need to do when we re-book is give them our old reservation number we took down his name and made detailed notes of the conversation, but all in all, typical disorganized method as it has been with the entire cancellation process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tree_skier Posted May 2, 2020 #11 Share Posted May 2, 2020 We received our FCC last night by email. They came in two emails, one for me and one for my wife. Our TA was able to see it on his computer earlier in the day. He applied the FCC to a future cruise we already had booked with him. There will be a small amount remaining after that cruise and he will then apply the remaining balance to another cruise after that. I included a copy of my FCC for informational purposes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though there is a FCC certificate number it is easier for them to use the old reservation number and they always ask for it instead of the certificate number. As long as they confirmed that it has been processed you shouldn't have any issues. I've had 3 processed in the past week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisb732 Posted May 3, 2020 #15 Share Posted May 3, 2020 @TennisCruiser62 they didn’t really have an explanation of why it happened. We had to talk to a few people to get it sorted out. If I could do it again I would just call to use my cruise credit instead of doing it online. I would also maybe try to get an idea of what the credit will pay for before I call. The credit was used for the cruise fare only. It wasn’t used to pay taxes or gratuities. The $1 and $2 charges were so the cruise still received crown and anchor points.

The minimum you would have to pay would be the taxes and fees as those were refunded from your previous cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough, our cruise docs arrived today on our apps. But more weird, there is an indefinite ban on Americans traveling to Europe right now. The cruise is still on for June 22nd out of Amsterdam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
