$100 On-Board Credit Certificate

[themnms]

Hi

 

We were given 3 of these from NCL as our cruise cost dropped dramatically after full payment. I have looked all over and these do not say non refundable. My question is may I use them towards the gratuities?

 

Thanks in advance

I don’t know for sure, but when I received refundable OBC from NCL it specifically said “refundable OBC” on my booking confirmation and Edocs.

 

Unless you have something in writing to prove it is refundable then I’d say there is a good chance that it will be non refundable and you would struggle to argue the point onboard.
 

Do you have any reason to believe that it should be refundable other than that it doesn’t specifically state it?

It will be clearly stated on your account once onboard, but I think it will be non refundable.  Use the OBC for dinners, drinks, excursions, spa, etc.

Ask for an Amenity Confirmation, it should say on there, this is the only place my shareholder OBC states non-refundable.

 

If it's non-refundable, I get Cruise Next certificate certificates, you can buy $500 worth for $250 only costing you the extra $50.

We used our non refundable OBC from a price drop on specialty coffees, bottled water, upcharges/extras at the specialty restaurants and photos.  As DURN lists, you can also use it for extra charges on drinks over $15, tips via voucher to crew members, bingo/deal or no deal cards, gift shop, etc.
