Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted April 14, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Booking with OBC is the "default" if you show OBC in your account. You have to manually uncheck a box if you don't want to use the OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majmaj4 Posted April 15, 2023 #5 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Is there somewhere to see the OBC balances. I booked a few things but want to check to make sure it looks correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can go back and do a mock payment and it will show you on the payments screen. So add any excursion, go through the process following Pay Now, etc., and when you get to the last screen you will see how much OBC has been used and what remainder you'd have to pay on your credit card. Obviously, that is as far as you go unless you actually want the excursion. From the same page, you can choose to Remove the excursion, as in cancel the payment process and remove the excursion from your cart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suekel Posted April 15, 2023 #7 Share Posted April 15, 2023 It depends on the OBC. Some is not given until you are on the ship. I have 725 in OBC on my next cruise. I could use the OBC from using my FCC and shareholder. The rest I could not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nini Posted April 15, 2023 #9 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Yes. This is one of the things that OBC can be used for before boarding. It will be deducted from your OBC. OTOH, specialty dining venues may not be booked using OBC before boarding. There is no logic in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you can, I just did so his morning and used over $1K in Princess gift cards for our cruise this fall. Just make sure you get someone that knows how to apply them correctly in the system.
