Rare Trish Traveler Posted November 27, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Just booked under the cyber Monday sail with the "free prepaid Crew appreciation" included. It showed it on the computer screen and I took a photo, but it doesn't show up on the booking confirmation that was emailed to me. Where should I see that? On the confirmation it shows the HIA features included, but not the crew appreciation. Just would like to see it in writing on the confirmation as otherwise I have no proof.

KAKcruiser Posted November 27, 2023 #4 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Did you book directly with HAL or through a travel agent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just under the Promotional Credit section in the middle, there is a statement that you have prepaid gratuities. I believe this shows whether you get this as a promotion or elect to prepay before sailing. Example below. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My example is for a cruise booked thru our TA. I have also seen this when booked direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted November 27, 2023 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2023 On your HAL invoice scroll down. The second or third page will contain all of the perks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally I booked this cruise via computer many months ago. Yesterday, I called to reprice for lower fare. After one hour wait (30 minutes on hold and 30 minutes with agent checking with supervisor) I was cut off with no call back. UGH I called again, and waited on hold only about 20 minutes to totally cancel cruise because it was refundable deposit, and just outside of final payment. Ate dinner, waited for cancel email and for cabin to reappear on website as available. I then booked a new reservation, with new res number, showing cyber sale on screen with crew appreciation included. So no TA to intervene here 😒 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it shows is my cancellation protection. The other promotional credits are correct. Thanks for showing me where to look anyway. 👍 I fear I have to call back today, as final payment just happens to also be today, and I don't want to pay until this is cleared up. Has anyone had any luck with CHAT or is phone call better with HAL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should show there that you already have it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea42 Posted November 27, 2023 #12 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Just now, Trish Traveler said: Ugh! It's showing available to purchase. Oh, that's too bad. For our booking, when clicking on the pre-pay option link the next screen has the purchase option grayed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KAKcruiser Posted November 27, 2023 #14 Share Posted November 27, 2023 No matter how hard it is, talking with someone on the phone is the best way to get this resolved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Trish Traveler Posted November 27, 2023 Author #15 Share Posted November 27, 2023 SUCCESS!! Only took about 35 minutes on the phone, which for cyber Monday isn't bad. The gal went to a resolution specialist. The new emailed confirmation is correct. And the crew appreciation shows online also. Glad it is resolved so I could make final payment, which is due today. Thanks everyone. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have had to change your promotion, my understanding was that the Cyber Sale is reduced deposit ONLY and the Black Friday was the Pre paid Crew Incentive, On Sunday these two promotions over lapped and you had to let them know which promotion you wanted.

You are correct, I was told several times in phone calls yesterday that the Cyber Sale did not include the Prepaid Crew Incentive I actually did not get the email from HAL.
