kessdarln Posted December 29, 2010 #1 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I plan to take a Cruise on the Epic after my NCL cruise this summer. Should I book it while on the ship or will I find better rates later? How does this work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Got Tequila? Posted December 29, 2010 #2 Share Posted December 29, 2010 I plan to take a Cruise on the Epic after my NCL cruise this summer. Should I book it while on the ship or will I find better rates later? How does this work? They no longer have the option to book a cruise while on the ship. What they offer now is to purchase a "Cruise Reward Certificate" which is $250 and gives you an automatic $100 OBC for the cruise that you are on. This certificate can be used as full deposit for any non-suite cruise of 6 days or longer that is booked with NCL or any TA you choose.........within 4 years. We think it's a great program.

OK, so if I understand right, since I am traveling alone, I can book a studio through my TA with one of these? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got Tequila? Posted December 30, 2010 #5 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Do you know why they wont let you use it to book a suite by any chance? The suite deposits are more expensive than the regular cabins. They will let you use it as partial payment of the deposit from what I've read....so you just have to pay the difference, and still can take advantage of getting the immediate $100 OBC.

BikerAl Posted December 30, 2010 #6 Share Posted December 30, 2010 You can use it to book a suit, but some require an additional deposit. Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I haven't tried it personally, but from reading the fine print I would say yes. You might want to confirm it with the Cruise Consultant on the ship before purchasing it, just to verify it.

Linda the Book Lover Posted December 31, 2010 #9 Share Posted December 31, 2010 The Dh surprised me by doing this on our last NCL cruise. I was happy because it meant we would be going on another cruise within 4 years. He was happy because we would be going on NCL. A win-win for both of us. We used ours to book our upcoming Epic cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
