jjduck Posted September 7 #1 Share Posted September 7 Is this OBC for pre-cruise only? backstory: About three weeks ago, we applied for the shareholder credit and the OBC showed up on the cruise planner within one day. (top right of the page) Today, checked cruise planner (just to double check about luggage tags) and was surprised to see "You have a $250. credit to spend on PRE-CRUISE purchases" scrolled across the top of the page. Before we make a phone call, thought to check with you experts if this is correct (or not) Thanks for any info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatbird2 Posted September 7 #2 Share Posted September 7 The shareholder OBC that I have received in the past has always been $100 and never said anything about pre-cruise. I used it for things I wanted on the ship-dinners, wine. Maybe your TA gave you some more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They booked a longer cruise and the shareholders is $250 Edited September 7 by Ken at the beach 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It started appearing in the so-called pre-cruise about 4-5 months ago, at least mine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjduck Posted September 7 Author #7 Share Posted September 7 thanks, nelblu. So, if we do not make any pre-cruise purchase, we should expect to see the OBC on our account on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it was just a change in terminology but in practice nothing at all changed Edited September 7 by Ken at the beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
