LostFan#1 Posted December 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 24, 2023 Just double checking here - at 3pm (EST) today< I am able to sign up for excursions. I know to have a credit card handy, super fast handy. But I'm double-checking here to make sure OBC is used first, and it's used automatically (as opposed to my selecting to use it). Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance! It depends on the type of credit issued. FYI using the ACH bank transfer is faster. It can be pre-entered, unlike credit card info. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropomo Posted December 24, 2023 #3 Share Posted December 24, 2023 It would appear from this thread that expenditures preboarding will not be covered by OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one for our next cruise (and have for previous cruises) where it’s clearly stated it can be used for excursions. For those OBCs, it’s used when you pay for the excursions.

LostFan#1 Posted December 24, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted December 24, 2023 I did just find this on my "Payments" page - Vouchers and Shipboard Credits will be automatically applied to your purchases of excursions, beverage packages, and prepaid gratuities.

LostFan#1 Posted December 25, 2023 Author #8 Share Posted December 25, 2023 And my OBC was tapped for the excursions immediately. Thanks again, everyone. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highland cruiser Posted December 28, 2023 #9 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Our OBC was used first also. We used the ACH process to pay for tours and received the 3.3% discount right away. This was recommended to us on our roll call and it worked very well. We were able to book the tours we wanted immediately. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddeprez Posted January 2 #10 Share Posted January 2 Where is the easiest place to see what Viking shows as your OBC? We have it from our TA, and it’s on their info, but does it show somewhere on MVJ, or elsewhere? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your booking is currently managed by a TA, you can ask them to generate one and FW it to you. Those whose booking is directly with Viking can generate it manually in MVJ.
