bar1068 Posted July 29, 2023 #1 Share Posted July 29, 2023 We've booked our first "true" B2B cruises on Mardi Gras this October. We've done "B2B" before, but on different ships, even different ships on different cruise lines. Anyway, I submitted our stockholder benefit request the other day, and was sort of surprised they, gave us the 14 day $250 amount which they allocated between the two cruises. The second of the B2B cruises we had a bunch of OBC, not so much the first cruise. Has anyone moved OBC from one cruise to another, particularly the shareholder OBC?

nwcruiselover Posted July 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted July 29, 2023 They don’t allow you to move OBC from one B2B to the other one, unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VentureMan_2000 Posted July 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted July 29, 2023 (edited) Great question. Asking friends from a B2B group to see if they know how this works. My guess is that you can only use the OBC assigned to that specific cruise week. So, if they applied the $250 to the first cruise, you would have to use the whole $250 on that first cruise. I'll let you know what I hear from the B2B group. Edited July 29, 2023 by VentureMan_2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VentureMan_2000 Posted July 29, 2023 #4 Share Posted July 29, 2023 OK, Just received a reply from the B2B group: "We had the issue last year on the Horizon. You can't move onboard credit to another cruise." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another response from the B2B group: "OBC is per cruise, use it or lose it is my understanding. A B2B has 2 different booking numbers and the OBC goes with the booking number."

When I submitted the OBC request to the shareholder folks...I submitted 2 emails, one with each booking number. As I mentioned it surprised me they sent the approval, and basically treated our B2B as a 14 day cruise and gave the $250 OBC. They also put $100 on the first cruise and $150 on the second. Since we had some OBC on the second, we thought if we could we'd move some back over to the first cruise. But, sounds like no movement allowed...not at all an issue...just thought I'd put it put there to see what others experienced. I think we'll be just fine. Thanks Again.

Rare Haljo1935 Posted July 29, 2023 #7 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Hey @bar1068 similar thing happened to me - submitted 2 separate requests for shareholder OBC on a B2B and they applied larger amount to the 2nd week. Have done several B2B and have never been allowed to move OBC between the weeks. They do close the first out as they treat each booming number separately. Safe travels - enjoy your cruise!

n6uqqq Posted July 29, 2023 #8 Share Posted July 29, 2023 If you have more than you want to use on the 2nd cruise, buy a gift card from cherry on top to use at a later cruise. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very familiar with the gift card game, but we will use the OBC for sure. If there was an option to even the amounts between the 2 cruises, we'd have looked at it...but seems not...we're good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
