PashaPoo Posted December 1, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2021 We are on Adventure of the Seas, sailing from Galveston, on March 18, 2022. Our final payment is due mid Dec 2021. However, we just got a notice from RCL that our final payment date has been changed to 30 days before sailing. What does this mean? Has anyone else seen this kind of change? I hope it does not means sales are lagging and this may be yet one more cruise to be cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading about this last week on CC I called my clueless/useless TA's (actually her boss as I refuse to deal directly with the original agent) boss this AM to verify the change as the TA didn't pass it along to me as she should have according to her boss. Our payment was due on 4 Dec. Edited December 1, 2021 by davekathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least her boss verified the TA should have sent me the Email. Her boss sent me the Email and also the new invoices showing the new due dates for each leg. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pay it at 90 days if you want, or at 60, but it must be paid by 30 days. That's all it means. It is a due date. Plus, cruises are not being canceled except possible some in other countries that just random, closed there doors to all travel and your cruise was leaving from that country. there is no need to read between the lines, and make up fears that are unfounded.

JasonMason Posted December 2, 2021 #12 Share Posted December 2, 2021 A little while back Royal introduced this to give more flexibility to guests with close-in departure dates to help curb cancellations, I wanna say they initially launched it around the time that the delta surge happened. They did it fairly quietly, but it was something that was rolled out and extended a few times. I’d love it if they would push it back one more month so I can pay off Wonder a little later!

I won’t be surprised if they change the window for those cruises, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
