tere247 Posted April 16, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Question: When can my onboard spending credit be used?Answer: After your successfully referred guest has completed their first cruise your onboard spending credit will become available for use. If you are sailing together on the same cruise, you can both use your onboard spending credits at that time. Am I reading right? The credit is available on their second cruise? Not the cruise after referral has been made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bemis12 Posted April 16, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I believe the person who was referred uses it on their first cruise- their first with Princess. The person who referred them has to wait until after their friend has completed their cruise, unless they are on the SAME cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted April 16, 2019 #3 Share Posted April 16, 2019 (edited) The friend receives the OBC on their first Princess Voyage. If you sail on the same voyage you also receive the OBC on that voyage. If you are not on that voyage then the OBC credits are posted to your Captain's Circle account once the friend completes their first voyage. You have 24 months to use them before they expire. The friend must be a new Princess customer. Edited April 16, 2019 by skynight 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it $25/cabin or $25 pp? Edited April 17, 2019 by chamima Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted April 17, 2019 #6 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Be careful, the name on the referral must match that on the reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll be on the cruise with us. If there's a problem all 4 of us can go to guest relations together. But will we be arguing for $50 ($25 per cabin) or $100 ($25 per person)?

cruzsnooze Posted April 17, 2019 #8 Share Posted April 17, 2019 It is per person not per cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted April 17, 2019 #9 Share Posted April 17, 2019 (edited) My referral passengers are sailing on the same cruise as me & in my Cruise Personalizer’s Credits it shows a $25 Referral Credit for each passenger I referred...3 passengers = $75 credit. Each referred passenger has a $25 credit in their CP. Edited April 17, 2019 by Astro Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmilesYourWay Posted April 17, 2019 #10 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I used refer a friend with my brother. Every little bit helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myjillian Posted April 17, 2019 #11 Share Posted April 17, 2019 Remember it can only be used for that persons first Princess cruise....if you get them hooked to sail Princess from now on...Princess does not keep giving you some kind of credit...but it would be nice is they had some kind of program...ie. after your 10th name you will get a bonus Speciality dinner on your next cruise....just a thought...

I had sailed on Princess before, but they hadn't. So we all missed out. Do all cruise lines do this, or just Princess? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LessWorkMoreTravel Posted April 17, 2019 #15 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I'm taking my first Princess cruise this summer. A friend gave me a lot of advice before booking but didn't mention the referral thing. I guess since I've already booked it's too late for us to take advantage of this?

Here’s a link to Details & FAQ: https://book.princess.com/captaincircle/referralRewards.page Your friend could follow the instructions to refer you online & if unsuccessful then could call about adding a Referral & hope for the best.
