brenderlou Posted August 22, 2020 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2020 Can you switch dates (either earlier or later) when you have a non refundable deposit? Cruise it the same just a different date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Posted August 22, 2020 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) We movedCanada/ Endgland Cruise from September 2020 to a Caribbean Cruise in March 2022. Couldn't do the Lift and Shift to another Canada/New England cruise in 2021 because we already have an Western Mediterranean in September of 2021 booked on RCCL. Actually also have an Alaska Cruise booked for September 2021 on Princess....one of them we won't take in September 2021 depending on current conditions of Covid at that time........... Reason Booking the Caribbean cruise even though we really don't want to sail that cruise is because we couldn't do the Canada/New England cruise which we really want in September of 2022.....but itineraies were not out yet, so we booked Rhasopdy of the Seas March 2022 , gambling it will be sold by that time so we will get another free move, to the Canada/New England cruise which we really want to do in Setember of 2022. So far chances look good if current condtions don't change Edited August 22, 2020 by Jimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not price protected. Not quite. Under the current CWC you can move dates until Sept 30th. You can cancel and get a FCC up until 48 hours prior to the date of sailing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now can move date until sept 30, if doesnt get extended again, or cancel, get fcc, use fcc to rebook. But you said it better, more specifically. The switch with just switching right now has a deadline of sept 30. But if price or deposit different, might have to pay more. Like I switched from 5 day to 7 day so owed more deposit to make switch.

It’s similar but the big difference is that you have to wait to get a a FCC which can complicate things as opposed to just moving a deposit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djyellowsub Posted August 22, 2020 #8 Share Posted August 22, 2020 We moved a November 13th Anthem cruise to April 11, 2021. The first RCI rep said we couldn't and would lose our deposit if we didn't pay the full price by August 13th. My husband hung up and called again. The next rep said we could and had no transferring our deposit and prepaid tips and gratuities to the April cruise. My advice: if you don't like the results from one rep, hang up and try again. You never know what you may get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brenderlou Posted August 24, 2020 Author #9 Share Posted August 24, 2020 yes, right now, with the Cruise with Confidence, you can change to whatever you want, but can only do it through Sept 30th right now.Wrong. Just called and if we moved from Xmas to Thanksgiving it would cost $100 per person. Have to move to the future.Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call again, shouldn't be a fee. Shift and lift is price protected, but not cwc shifts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can move cruises all the way through 4/22. But the program to do that, only goes through 9/30 as of right now. Sorry if I was not more clear.

Seville2Cabo Posted August 24, 2020 #13 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I thought if you purchases the cruise before March, you were not protected and would have to pay the $100 change fee to move a still scheduled cruise non-refundable deposit.

I've moved many reservations for clients with NRD deposits and there has not been a charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
