keifernny Posted June 27, 2020 #1 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Hi Everyone, I was reading the celebrity faq and it is a bit confusing due to the wording they use. Maybe someone else has run into the same situation. I was scheduled for a 2/1cruise to Asia on Millenium, which we cancelled the day before departure and received 100% FCC. This was the first cruise that celebrity allowed cancellation on due to covid but before they created any official programs. I applied the FCC to the final payment on my 8/17 Greece Cruise on Constellation, which is now cancelled. I called my big box TA yesterday and they weren't sure whether I'd be eligible to get my money back, FCC, or 125% FCC. Has anyone run into this situation yet? Thanks!

twins_to_alaska Posted June 27, 2020 #2 Share Posted June 27, 2020 From other threads it seems like Cruise with Confidence FCC - the 100% when you cancelled - can only be returned as FCC again but if you had 125% FCC from a cancelled cruise which was used for a second cruise that was cancelled then you could get that refunded.

wrk2cruise Posted June 27, 2020 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2020 From my understanding any FCC used toward payment for a suspended cruise will be reinstated. Any additional funds can be returned as 125% FCC or 100% refund. But it would make sense that if you applied a 125% FCC that could now be refunded. I would assume though that it would only be refunded at the original 100%. Remember the original 125% FCC could be exchanged for a 100% refund prior to 12/31/2020 for these early suspensions. I believe some of the later sailings had earlier deadlines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Miaminice Posted June 27, 2020 #4 Share Posted June 27, 2020 (edited) This already happened to us... The answer is simple: any FCC applied to a cruise, regardless if it originated from 100 or 125%, will be reissued as FCC. Once applied, the option to switch 125% FCC into 100% refund is gone. What was FCC stays FCC. Any additional payment can be refunded or turned into 125% FCC. One of the reasons I keep telling people to only apply their 125 % FCC at the last possible moment in order to keep the option to change their mind.
