Which means that I will have to go to the Hotel Manager and Security Officer to enforce the rules and policy, such as it is... bon voyage

Which ship and sailing is this from??? TIA - bon voyage

I fully understand... yet, IMO, if there is a question about current policy the website is the first place I go to find out what the "official" policy is and not ask here because there will be those who can give conflicting information about the policy vs enforcement vs what they saw (or thought they saw), etc... Yet, I understand the ease of asking here in the forum in lieu of getting/reading the current official policy... In health and bon voyage

You may want to call CS and request an invoice which shows AI as you indicated.... They will be able to get one out or explain how to interpret it on the invoice you have received, in which case I would still request one that shows this info even if in X's lingo/acronyms... bon voyage

tbdi - I Am sure it is news to many others who may want or need to use 'e-cigarettes' and other tobacco products aboard any X vessel... Most of the current policies, rather they are followed or not aboard, can be found at X's website. Yet the policy for smoking and etc. can be found here, it is very clear, IMO. In health and bon voyage

From X's website: Drinks Classic members and above who choose Cruise-Only Rates can enjoy 10% - 20% savings (depending on tier) on the Classic or Premium Beverage Package if purchased pre-cruise. Elite and above members will continue to enjoy complimentary drinks from the Captain’s Club menu daily from 5pm – 7pm—or choose All Included and enjoy 10%-15% (depending on tier) off the upgrade from Classic to Premium (increased from 5% - 10%) if purchased pre-cruise.* Zenith members enjoy complimentary Premium Beverage Packages. There may be variations, to which I cannot attest and there have been a few postings where this discount has been applied to the sales price... I have not found any policy relating to that. Cheers and bon voyage

t2 - I Am sorry that there has been issues... I did neglect to write that I have had a few issues from time to time with my meal order, usually after pointing it out the kitchen gets it right going forward... I really did not mean to insinuate that on the first go round it is right... bon appetit and bon voyage

Many of us fret over what is or is not on the menu to our liking and do forget that when we look at the next nights menu it can be modified to our taste. The chef's, more often than not, are willing and happy to "do it your way"... I can assure you as I modify many meals when aboard X (and at home too... LOL, to much consternation)!!! The menus in many dining venues are not inscribed in stone and as such can be altered and modified to some degree... so ask in advance for it to be and not night of, if possible... bon appetit and bon voyage

You can call Captains Club, if you are a member or the general number and have them change it for you... bon voyage

It also depends on where the OBC is coming from, if a TA, then that will post after boarding a day or two... If X, then OBC should be readily available for use before sailing. It is not clear where the OBC is from. bon voyage

mt - seek out the Hotel Director & Maintenance Supervisor GS is not the place to be... I trust your sailing will be better. bon voyage

I recommend searching out a Travel Agent who has discount rates on the sailing you wish.... Please note we are not allowed to post names/info on TA's here... an internet search will provide a few places to check out and compare offers. Then cancel the current booking and rebook with them... as X has tried to contact you and you do not want them to unilaterally cancel the booking. You may have a few weeks yet to respond. There have been a few IT pricing and booking glitches over the last few months and a few people who post here were outraged that either their sailing was cancelled due to double room bookings or pricing glitches. While I understand and have had a pricing glitch happen to me, I figured out other ways to book which would yield better pricing and possibly better OBC, even if pricing was not as low as the glitch, it turned out to be good IMO... Good luck and let us know how we can assist you further in this... it is not fun, to be sure yet upon boarding it will be because this part will be behind you... bon voyage

Sorry to hear that... but I do think that you will enjoy X and its' ships for that sailing, which will have a few less passengers than RCCL and all in all, pricing is comparable after all items are added together... it just looks more expensive upfront... IMO bon voyage

It sounds like RC may be the best offer for you, in this case... How do their rates compare for a similar sailing at the same time in 2024??? Edit To Add: Many of RC ships contain more passengers than X and that will have an effect on pricing as well... something to consider also. bon voyage

Hello all, I Am wondering how will credit card's and/or travel insurance will look at and pay on claims for delays and missed connections???? I Am sure those who had a Berkshire Hathaway plan may have made out in terms of claims as they mainly cover delays, correct? bon voyage

Could not find anything more specific, but will continue to help you out... According to FlightAware, as of June 28, 2023, BA288 has been on time 50% of the time since June 19, 2023, and BA289 has been on time 40% of the time in the same time period. This is per my AI... bon voyage

Personally, I would not worry or conject about... Yet, if it is of value, I say take it as in either case the cost was less than purchasing it at the original full price or am I mistaken about that??? At any rate, Cheers and bon voyage

bb - I look forward to seeing you onboard.... bon voyage

dt - Great, I look forward to meeting you aboard...!!! bon voyage

Sorry to say that you well may have a sour taste left. If it was a computer glitch, then they have the right to correct it. Were it just your reservation, they may well eat the cost, yet it sounds like it was quite a few which they most certainly will not want to eat the cost on... as a consolation they are offering a discount, I presume and OBC, It is possible that your TA may be able to negotiate more OBC and/or an upgrade in cabin for the price of the cabin category originally selected OR advocate that X honour the original pricing... When is the sailing you are booked on currently??? Good luck and bon voyage

This is a situation where if one chooses not to 'approve' the price change, then X may automatically refund if there is no response in the affirmative that the passenger wishes to book the sailing at the new offer or not. bon voyage

Then that is a case of wait and see... bon voyage

mt - have a safe journey to BCN, we are on the same sailing 02 Sept and I look forward to your postings... bon voyage

Hey, I have one as well... LOL So you are not alone!!! bon appetit and bon voyage

That is, if the ticket is refundable... bon voyage
