Sunshine3601 Posted September 23, 2020 #52 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I wish they would update website to show new sailings as I want to see if there is a chance to turn the jewel aug 5th sailing into a b2b. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who will be downgraded? Of course we would love a OS but a GS would be fine. Not interested in a JS or less. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

njkruzer Posted September 23, 2020 #58 Share Posted September 23, 2020 usually book balcony. Aft if available. Need new itineraries. Ta on phone with Royal. So frustrating. Have a family event in MA in late September so have to work around that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpluvsdolphins Posted September 23, 2020 #59 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Now the big question is: Will they move our casino comp cruise over from the Brilliance to the Independence? Should be easy as the Independence is larger. I’m emailing my casino host. He will probably be getting 100’s of emails. 😞 I called a Casino Royale (host is off at 5) and the person said they don’t know what they are going to do yet with the free casino cruises.

How about the October 19 Odyssey Greek Isles and Transatlantic? We had been on the Oct 15 Jewel Med & Greek Isles cruise, followed by the Oct. 28 Odyssey TA. In July we changed from Jewel to the Odyssey Greek Isles cruise so we wouldn't have to fly from Barcelona to Rome to change ships. Really glad we did that now.

Interesting idea about the transfer over. usually they don't but if everything is the same I don't see why they couldn't move everything over Oh you nabbed that straight away!! The reason I bring it up is because a friend of mine on Insta is attempting to do just that, she has Key, drink package, and excursions all booked. She said RC is getting back to her on if they will honor everything since it is the same itinerary (fingers crossed!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TinkBellaMom Posted September 23, 2020 #68 Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) Wow, we are very disappointed. We booked our Baltic 12 day on Jewel when they were first released. Planning is done, booked private excursions, hotels for before and after cruise. It was what I did while stuck in home trying to do something productive. We didn’t get a letter yet. Wondering if we could do a L&S for 2022? I know it doesn’t fit the rules because they cancelled but hoping they might offer an incentive if we let them keep our money in exchange.

I never get these canx emails from my TA in a timely manner...sometimes weeks later. Can anyone tell me what the refund/OBC credit Deal is for the fully cancelled jewel cruises out of Barcelona. We are (were) on the 12 nt, 23 Sep cruise. Booked with fully refundable deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xDisconnections Posted September 23, 2020 #71 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Any idea how Royal handles shore excursions? We were booked on the Adventure being transferred to the Jewel and already reserved shore excursions in St. Petersburg. Should I expect having to rebook and follow-up accordingly with a refund?

We were on the July 27 sailing of the Jewel out of Amsterdam. We thought about moving to a shorter cruise as long as it included overnight St. Petersburg. Two problems, we have booked private tours with other couples at a significant savings and they might not rebook and we are worried RCCL will require that we only do ship excursions.
