rnr4thatsme Posted January 8, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Hi there… I’m considering allowing my son to bring a friend on a future 2024 cruise, but as they are all young, new to job market, I’m aware things sometimes come up. Is it ever possible to add or remove a person from a reservation, in case his friend for some reason can’t come? If his friend couldn’t come, could he add a different person? Just wondering how that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted January 8, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 8, 2023 The policy varies by cruise line, and may generate a fee, but yes, you can change a person on a reservation a reasonable time in advance. Don't try it the last couple days before sailing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted January 8, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 8, 2023 the closer to the sailing you do this it may be more difficult to add people unless you have a spot reserved already if you book a cabin with 4 it usually can change a pax for a fee if you book a cabin for 3 then it may not be possible they have to have space in the lifeboats & that is capacity controlled Best to check with the cruise line before making any reservations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the max capacity of your cabin is generally not a factor regarding the lifeboat capacity restriction. But for clarification - when you are not adding a passenger, but merely replacing an existing passenger booking with a different person, lifeboat capacity and cabin max have no effect.

The OP did not clarify whether the friend would be booked & then change the name if the friend does not go or if the friend decided to join later in the process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
