Dan83 Posted August 15, 2022 Author #51 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Do I get double cruise points if my sailing companion cancels and I sail as a single? A booking must be created and sail as a single occupancy, with a paid single guest supplement to cruise fare, to receive the extra single sailor points. When one guest from a multiple-guest occupancy reservation cancels within 100% penalty, their cruise fare is held in penalty within the reservation. This allows the cancelled guest to potentially file a claim with their travel protection provider, if applicable. The booked cruise fare for the remaining guest(s) within the reservation remains the same and no single supplement is applied; therefore, the remaining guests receive Crown & Anchor Society points based on the initial occupancy booked within their reservation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan83 Posted August 15, 2022 Author #52 Share Posted August 15, 2022 At risk of beating a dead horse…. I think that was quietly added to the FAQ’s recently. And they “fixed the glitch “. Really that’s what all the fuss was about. Only recently, I have read a couple reports of this situation where someone has not received the solo double points. Could be new policy, maybe. I’d like to hear from someone that has done this in the past couple weeks and automatically got double. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However recent reports of more folks being denied and appealing it didn't change that. What happened before 2022 may not be a good indication of what to expect going forward.

IMO, that is not a fair policy if you can't collect from travel insurance. RCI would then be indirectly charging a single supplement. Plus, RCI keeps the cancelled fair regardless.

It is none of their business what travel insurance you have or what gets reimbursed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously Royal doesn't care how many points they give away 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
