rodndonna Posted September 6, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 6, 2023 When we booked our NCL cruise with air, they automatically added on transfers which I would now like to remove (I assume I don't have to take them) as final payment is later this month. I don't see a way to do that on-line. Do I have to call in for that or am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare schmoopie17 Posted September 6, 2023 #2 Share Posted September 6, 2023 (edited) Yes, you have to call. If you have a PCC, call him/her. If not, call the regular toll-free number. Unless you used a TA, in which case you need to call them. But hurry up before final payment is due.

Rare ontheweb Posted September 6, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 6, 2023 Definitely call. We were on the Prima earlier this month and also had the BOGO transfers automatically added. Our flight back was not until 5 PM (actually with delays ended up more like 7 PM). DW said we are not sitting in the airport terminal that long, and went and bought an excursion to the airport with a stop. We asked and were told that if we bought the excursion, the BOGO transfers would automatically come off. But when I checked out account on the tv, they had not come off. I went to guest services and they asked if we wanted them off as if we somehow might want to pay for both an excursion to the airport and the regular transfer to the airport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They assume if you are using their airfare and flying in the same day as your cruise that you will need transportation to the port and back to the airport at the end of the cruise. Lots of people do and it alleviates any miscommunication if people think that NCL will also get them to the port as part of their airfare. If you request a deviation or book a post-cruise excursion, they will normally remove the transfers - assuming you do so prior to the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a one day deviation coming into Heathrow, and they were not removed. I checked because I did not want them removed. We booked an excursion to the airport in Reykjavik, and I had to ask for them to be removed even though they now knew we were going to the airport through them in a different way. I forgot what the transfers were called on the invoice we received from our TA, but I do remember it was not transfers. Maybe someone else remembers the term they used.

You booked through a TA - they should have removed them. If you book through NCL directly their system will normally cancel the transfer - which is a pain for me, since I usually go back to the airport and want to use the transfer. Line item on an NCL confirmation is simply "Transfer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoops, just looked at the invoice and it does say transfer, both specifically. But I can swear on the original invoice before we changed to add the tips before they were raised, it said something else. I do remember the TA trying to figure out what it was and coming up with transfers.
