Have You Ever Had To Cancel Your RCI Cruise Shortly Before Sailing Date?

[vettegal99]

Two years ago we had to cancel our cruise 2 days before sailing. I ended up in the Hosp and the Dr wouldn't permit me to travel. Our TA took care of the cancellation. We had a full refund from the Insurance Co within a month - refund from Royal Caribbean for our excursions took a bit longer. We don't cruise without travel insurance.

My hubby had a kidney transplant 2weeks before our cruise.....RCI insurance was great!!!! We got every dime back!!!!

I am an attorney and had a trial scheduled for a month before a cruise, but due to inclement weather that closed the courthouse during the days of trial, the judge rescheduled the trial on his own without coordinating with anyone. i didn't file a notice of unavailability because my cruise was scheduled for after the trial date. Judge picks the week of my cruise. I filed motion but judge didn't care.

 

Guess what? Being ordered by a federal judge to attend a trial is NOT covered by RCI's travel insurance.

 

My law firm had to eat the couple thousand dollar cost.

 

That's a first for me...never heard of one like this! Thanks for sharing the experience!
