Anyone recently cancelled a cruise?

(No, this has nothing to do with the noro thing.)

 

If anyone has recently cancelled a cruise, I was just wondering how long it took for the refund to be processed. We recently decided to switch our upcoming reservation from the Navigator to Explorer and I didn't realize you could just transfer, so I cancelled the old one and created a new. I submitted the cancellation on Friday and got a confirmation number.

Took me a couple of days to get my refund.

Your example is an illustration why we don't make final payment until the last payment is due. While there is generally deposit money- it's much smaller, so the strain of waiting for it is lowered.

 

Actually, for us, we use FCC, so we have to find a different cruise to change it to- which is exactly what you just found out.

 

Either way, we don't generally pay until the end, so that we can make changes as need be.

I had not made the final payment yet. I was just curious how long the processing typically takes because it had been a few days now. The only related thread I found in the search was a few years old.

I cancelled recently on a Thursday and the money was back on Tuesday.

It took about a week, came back in three installments.
