Scrst Posted October 20, 2021 #1 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Before I contact my TA, I thought I’d try for some experiences from this group: I am thinking of changing my cabin from a veranda to an outside. Would I have to cancel my booking and rebook? If so, would this happen if I upgraded my cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted October 20, 2021 #2 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Are you in the US, UK, Australia? There are differences in policies in different areas. Also when is your sail date? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandancer Posted October 20, 2021 #3 Share Posted October 20, 2021 If my memory serves me right, here in the UK you cannot downgrade. You cannot move to a cabin costing less than the one you originally booked. I have to say that it is quite some time since we tried to do this. We were actually transferring the booking to another sailing and wanted to take a lower grade cabin but it was refused. As Jelayne says different t&c’s apply depending on location. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny01 Posted October 20, 2021 #4 Share Posted October 20, 2021 And it also depends on when your cruise departure date is. Best to check with your TA who is the professional and has the right 'gouge'. den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guppy99 Posted October 20, 2021 #6 Share Posted October 20, 2021 You are far better off checking with your TA than getting faulty or outdated information here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted October 20, 2021 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Is your deposit refundable? If so, I would cancel and rebook. If not, keep your eye on the fares every day. Sometimes they drop and you can certainly call and get the saving. Good luck with your decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flipflopsnfrozendrinks Posted October 20, 2021 #8 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I went through this. My DH booked us in a concierge class on Edge, thinking it had a real balcony. Once we realized the mistake, it was a job to change rooms. I wanted to change from concierge class to sunset veranda. They would not let me change the existing reservation because it was a "downgrade". I ended up cancelling the cc room and booking an sv. The SV cost me almost $500 more. This was all in the matter of one day. I was on the phone explaining that the cc rooms have infinite balconies, which we are not interested in. The rep was arguing with me saying that it clearly says "private balcony" in the room description. It took about 2 hours, but it worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
