We were on Jewel's last "sailing" March 9 (departed and turned right back around), and I'm dying to go back and finally hit Sir Bani Yas, Oman, and more! Just curious did you still get loyalty pts and a refund since the cruise turned back? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were given full points (7) and a refund to our onboard account which resulted in a refund to the credit card after everything was closed out. I don't remember if we were charged tips or not. This was one of those cruises where we used the ship as a hotel for a day then we embarked the following evening. 20 hours ago, Coralc said: And I will add to that question. What did you do the rest of the time in Dubai, or did you just have to fly home? This was 2 days before the US travel ban was announced. We returned to port in Dubai and had a sick passenger who was being tested so we had to remain onboard the ship until we received the results but were free to move about. The ship ended up switching locations on the dock once during the day. The result was negative that evening, and we were free to leave the ship and roam around Dubai or fly home as we saw fit. The next morning the travel ban to the US was announced so we made plans to fly back that night. We still ended up with a full day to see the last remaining sights we didn't originally see (Dubai Frame and Jumeirah Mosque were the big 2) then headed to the airport for a 2:30am flight. Slightly nerve-wracking but we had an absolute blast! I can't wait to go back! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would be more than happy to book the cruises, if I wanted to give them $450 deposit for each cruise. Thanks, but no. They are already sitting on over $5K of my money. 😡 Call back and just ask to apply it. If they say no, ask for an exception. If that doesn’t work, ask for resolutions. Worked for family members. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to use a current fcc expiring in april 2022 for july 2022, you would have to do a fake booking say for april 2022, then cancel before final payment and jump thru hoops explained on other threads to get the fcc extended. I have heard of some used into may but not as late as july. Nothing I would do on purpose. But good luck getting resolutions to make a exception. Who knows maybe you can with a good reason, and rcl keeps pushing out dates as the cancellations pile up, so it might happen on it's own, just not yet.

atgood Posted January 1, 2021 #811 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I think RCI will extend the FCC expiration date once they do another round of cancellations. They’ll have to eventually if their ships don’t start sailing in more places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If rcl waits for some kind of her immunity maybe next fall, that's why I posted the dates could get extended. Hope people saying rcl wouldnt sail until then are wrong.... but then when I booked april 2021 I thought it would go, now I have my doubts as I dont see crew being hired or other signs moving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many possibilities, both pro and con, that just about anything is possible. I'm hoping for the best but prepared for the worst. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I would normally agree...I would have thought they would have stated the policy for FCC's again and pushed for me to book. Since this was the exact opposite it led me to also have some hope. If it makes any difference, this wasn't one of the normal reps it was a return call to me from resolutions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, What feels like a lifetime ago, I responded to the announcement that RCI was going 'plastic free' with the question "does that mean an end to the 'ham' and 'cheese' found in the Windjammer?"
