Rare mj_holiday Posted September 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I have seen it many times, but can't find it when I want to. Can someone give me a path to find the air credit for a cruise? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mj_holiday Posted September 7, 2023 Author #2 Share Posted September 7, 2023 I see the two tier system for our cruise on line, but we booked this cruise awhile ago and at a less price that what is shown. So I guess I am looking for where that history price would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonedaddy Posted September 8, 2023 #3 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Your TA or regent can just tell you . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhenry1 Posted September 8, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 8, 2023 On our cruise to Alaska they announced they would now offer first class air but what they are offering for the air stayed the same amount that was offered for economy air. That doesn’t make any sense. They are offering $850 for first class air if you chose to book your own. This is what was offered for economy on the same cruise.

pingpong1 Posted September 8, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 8, 2023 I think it's a mistake for anyone to think that the "Regent air credit" somehow constitutes a direct "refund" (by Regent) of the amount of money they are paying for everyone's air tickets. The same applies to the "hotel credit". 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare pappy1022 Posted September 8, 2023 #8 Share Posted September 8, 2023 The air credits for our trip were so little, I couldn’t purchase main cabin tickets on my own with the credits being offered. Made it an easy decision to stay with Regent’s business class offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardbohn Posted September 8, 2023 #9 Share Posted September 8, 2023 For our recently booked Iceland cruise July 2025, my wife and I each received an air credit of $3800. That’s a total of $7600 which we were extremely happy with. Looking at airfare prices for July 2024 (2025 not available yet) on Icelandair, Saga Premium seats, NY to Reykjavik round trip is running about $2400 per person.

papaflamingo Posted September 9, 2023 #10 Share Posted September 9, 2023 First, you can look on the current pricing and subtract the difference between the inclusive and non inclusive rate and it'll give you an idea of the air credit. But if you booked a year ago, you'll have to check with your TA. I tend to agree that it seems the air credit is less than what they really charge. However I "ran the numbers" for our Oct. cruise. The air credit (as I remember) was around $6000 or so. I priced business class round trip on Royal Caribbean's website (you can get their air fare without booking a cruise) and it was about $7000 round trip per person. So it's pretty close. Hard to actually say if Regent keeps some of the cost, but it is what it is. Maybe Regent gets better rates or maybe Royal Caribbean uncharges for their service. Who really knows?
