lovinlife58 Posted November 6, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2021 This morning we were going to check to see if our luggage tags were ready to print but....we got more than a surprise, it was disaster! Our cruise on the Allure Dec 5 was canceled and given no reason! I called Royal but since we used a travel agent, we'll have to talk to her on Mon. It's going to be a very long and nerve racking weekend! Has this happened to anyone else? If so did it get resolved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This cruise still shows as available for booking with cabins in all categories still available. The only thing that I can think of that would cause your specific reservation to be cancelled is the TA never made the final payment on the cruise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted November 6, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) Check your credit card to see if it has been charged for the final payment. Final payment was probably yesterday, travel agent should have paid 7 to 10 days before that.................Plus I highly doubt Royal would cancel your confirmation only 1 day past due.............Sounds like an IT issue Edited November 6, 2021 by Jimbo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoeyVictoria Posted November 6, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I am on the same cruise. I am able to access the booking and purchase dining, etc. on the cruise planner. Ours has been paid in full for a while, but final payment date would have been yesterday. Is it possible your TA missed it? Or possibly prepaid gratuities were added later and still shown as a balance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably best to spend the weekend looking for a new TA ... that is available on weekends. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbeyg Posted November 6, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I know you have to be beyond upset. I hope things get straightened out very quickly, and you sail as booked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovinlife58 Posted November 6, 2021 Author #8 Share Posted November 6, 2021 We paid the cruise with Air2Sea off Sept. 3, so come Mon, hopefully we can get it resolved. We may not get the original ocean view cabin but there seems to be a lot open. We just have to stay positive!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cruiser1862 Posted November 6, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 6, 2021 My TA is always available by email and has an emergency contact. She lets everyone know if she’ll be unavailable and who to contact in her absence. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After initially being issued to my deceased SO (who died long before it would have even been possible to book the cruise), it was eventually reissued to my SO, in the wrong amount. It left the deposit on the new cruise $14 dollars short, and the booking was automatically canceled by Royal’s computer, with no notice either before or afterwards. The computer cancels cruises with no oversight/review by a human employee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also checked on my Travel Agent site -- still open to booking, and there are many cabins available. Hopefully, it's just a glitch.

DMWT Cruiser Posted November 6, 2021 #14 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Sorry to hear of your difficulties. Did you check your reservation on both the app and the website? Did all payments that you made post to your credit card on or about the date the payment was authorized? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another_Critic Posted November 6, 2021 #17 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Do you have a recent invoice that shows it paid in full? If I use a TA, I always ask them to request (and forward to me) a RCI invoice after final payment is made. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only showing on your app cause you haven't updated it.....refresh the app and it will probably not be there anymore if Royal is saying it's showing cancelled on their end.
