OBC for Sky Suite?

[Cajuntraveler]

We recently booked a Sky Suite on the Soltice.  This is our 2nd X cruise and 1st in a suite.  The info on X's web site indicates one of the retreat benefits is $150 OBC for shore excursions.  We each received $300 OBC and I can't determine if $150 of that credit can only be used for shore excursions.  The OBC shows as one amount on my account.

We probably won't do any shore excursions on this trip and are hoping that the entire $300PP can be used as we want.  Can anyone answer my question and save me hours waiting on the telephone for my TA or X to answer my question?

You can use it for what you want.

I used all of mine on casino chips, they have a good deal if you gamble when you buy 50 in chips you get 55. So I spent my entire 600 and got 660 in chips. I got 800 OBC for next sky not sure why.

Yes, use it as you like. They don't actually earmark OBC, no matter what the promotional materials say.

Yes you can use it as you like.  We went out to Dawes Glacier (4 of us ) with a portion of ours and I bought a very nice pearl necklace and a watch.  The thing is you have to use it or loose it.

The amount of OBC for booking a suite is based on the length of your cruise. $300pp for less than 10 nights and $400pp for over 10 nights.

Did you book when Celebrity was giving $200 OBC? We got that when booking during the Black Friday sale.

I booked it last December for this November, looks like being a veteran gave us extra 200. I need to always mention that , MSc gave us ten percent discount for that.
