I presume RC? If you tell them they will reprice it as a single and will be a similar price. If you don’t,even while boarding ,it won’t make any difference and you will receive taxes and gratuity of the second person as a OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruiser3775 Posted November 7, 2022 #4 Share Posted November 7, 2022 Let the cruise company know in advance, with your reasons. They should be able to give you some on board credit, at least. I hope you enjoy your cruise despite the circumstances. You are wise to make some new memories, even though it may not be easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband is not able to travel with me in February next year and he had the same credits I did I emailed solutions@princess and explained the situation and they were kind enough to transfer them over to me.

sayaguru Posted November 8, 2022 #9 Share Posted November 8, 2022 (edited) I'm on Coral tomorrow. My husband is in hospital. I rang Princess and they said I can change the name. I was surprised as it was FCC. I rang my agent and they changed it, no charge. If you have no one to take I'd just turn up. I also just got off a Carnival cruise and my husband didn't go. I just turned up by myself. I'm ringing them now about port charge refunds. I asked on the ship but got no answer.

Bubbeh Posted November 8, 2022 #10 Share Posted November 8, 2022 I'm so sorry for you loss. I'm also in awe of your choice to continue living well. Good for you! As others have suggested, keep busy. Go to the Trivia sessions and find yourself a Team, eat in the MDR in the evenings at least and as much as you possibly can, smile and act engaging. Go you good thing. 💗 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Diamond Princess didn't go into lockdown, you and your husband would have gone of the cruise. They owe you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
