the sea and me Posted June 7 #1 Share Posted June 7 Just curious. Has anyone ever received an email to ask if you were flexible in your travel plans to change your cruise date. This is 5 days before sailing. 100% refund or an upgrade to a better cabin on a future cruise no penalty. Never heard of this and I’ve been on over 40 cruises in the past 15 years. Just wondering Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted June 8 #2 Share Posted June 8 Sounds like they have oversold and yes someone posted a similar email & offer a few weeks ago. I believe theirs was an Alaska cruise. It isn’t common but it does happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering Doesn’t sound like much incentive unless it’s a significant category update…like from a veranda to a royal suite. 🙂 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, they may find some takers - people who were going to have to cancel anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering The ones I have seen are a move to a similar sailing and the cost of your original cruise given as refundable onboard credit on the new booking. Therefore, being a great incentive to move! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridgerunner51 Posted June 8 #7 Share Posted June 8 Yes. We changed our Bermuda cruise out of Cape Liberty from June 2nd to July 14th. They upgraded us from a balcony to a prime balcony, refunded our money and the new booking is free. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I filled out the survey to express interest. How long before you heard if you were chosen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
