CalLuvsCrusingToo Posted April 19 #1 Share Posted April 19 Princess Casino Comp bookers, What is the best way to Cancel an Oct. 2022 booking? I was able to Cancel & get refunded on our Sept. start of our B2B booking. But when it came to second half of B2B that happens in Oct.? They are saying its beyond Cruise with Confidence which ends in Sept., and I will lose our $200 pp but get back the taxes/port fees cuz its far enough away timewise. Seems theres No way to cancel without getting stuck for deposits. Saying, Non refundable. Any suggestions? Has anyone added travel Insurance, then able to cancel to get All refunded?

negn Posted April 21 #2 Share Posted April 21 The $200 pp deposit is no refundable and they tell you that when you book through the casino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuedon Posted April 22 #3 Share Posted April 22 You can try escalating it. I had some luck with whatever they call the retentions department when they let me double book myself, then tell me there's nothing they can do about it when I called five minutes later after I noticed my calendar was on the wrong month.

The casino cruise deals deposits are always non refundable and this has always been stressed to me whenever I have book one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalLuvsCrusingToo Posted April 25 Author #5 Share Posted April 25 Thanks for replies. In the past, I have had the opportunity to move our deposits to another cruise we were booking. But This time, (and it seems it depend on Who you talk to) didn't give me that option.... I will try calling again, and talk with someone else. I haven't heard of the Retentions dept.

Cuedon Posted April 25 #6 Share Posted April 25 (edited) I don't remember what Princess calls them, but they're the equivalent of the people you get escalated to with complaints/cancellation threats that lower tier employees don't have the authority to handle with other companies... often referred to as retentions. In my case though, it was a call back literally minutes later, and I wasn't trying to cancel, but just change the booking to a time when I wasn't already on a different Princess ship. (You'd think the system would red-flag a scheduling conflict like that, but I guess not.) Edited April 25 by Cuedon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we do many casino offers with Royal, Carnival, & Princess, I have to make sure our bookings are not at the same time. I really need a secretary for that. (And now making sure we have time to test between) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalLuvsCrusingToo Posted May 22 Author #8 Share Posted May 22 Wanted to tell my outcome. I was able to move ALL those funds from October Meditt cruise, to a CA Coastal cruise during the same time. This was done by having a new casino offer that needed to be booked. When I explained to Princess Casino Rep that we had no intention of doing EU cruise in Oct., but wanted to coastal comp cruise instead? She said, Oh I can do that for you. So I lost no $$, and lost No deposits. Just lucked into speaking with an experienced Casino Rep. and she handled it without prob. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
