Didn’t do it yet. guess I won’t need to call & cancel. Not worried re: refund. Deposit was $1.00 each. They can probably handle that refund without affecting the cash flow too seriously. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Not a good move on your part Princess. Did you really expect your January 16th cruise to sail? We had a July Princess cruise that we cancelled a month before they did and only had a refundable deposit as opposed to final payment as we knew it could not possibly sail. And I'm sure they also knew too well before final payment was due. How much more proof could one need that a cruise out of London (Southampton) to the Norwegian fjords would be a no go when you could no longer fly to London and Norway was closing ports? Did you really expect them to be able to meet the CDC requirements by mid-January? 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Princess will probably be the last line to sail. I was thinking the same thing. They had the most serious and highly publicized Covid cruise, so they don't want to be associated with Covid again. Let the other lines break the ice so when Princess resumes it'll just be another line belatedly returning to cruising. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

You will have a deadline to choose a refund or (by default) FCC. In the past they have not processed the refunds/FCCs until that deadline. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

triple7tahoe Posted November 20, 2020 #37 Share Posted November 20, 2020 so far I find this interesting. We have scheduled 2- 7 day cruises out of SF on April 17 and 24th. I have been told that the one on the 17th has been cancelled but nothing about the following cruise on the 24th. Is it just a matter of time until I get that email? Link to post Share on other sites
shellbeachjim Posted November 20, 2020 #38 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Our June 1, 2021 Pacific Princess cruise (Singapore to Rome) was on the list. I can’t say I was surprised - in fact I was getting pessimistic about its chances of happening. We have 2 more cruises scheduled - a 10-day Mexican Riviera cruise next December and a longer Papeete to Sydney cruise in February 2022. We’ll just have to see what happens...

mina Posted November 20, 2020 #42 Share Posted November 20, 2020 So my 10 day cruise in March was cancelled. It was booked with a FCC from a prior cancelled cruise. How will they calculate the 25 percent bonus FCC for this cancellation? The original FCC breaks down to 100 in refundable and 100 in non refundable. I am assuming that it will now be a 300 FCC since the minimum bonus is 100. Has anyone had this situation already? Link to post Share on other sites
greenie082756 Posted November 20, 2020 #43 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well this was expected considering all the bad news lately in the US with covid risings. I was hoping the 3rd time would be the charm to go to Alaska but alas not. Guess we will have to find somewhere local to go to for a get away. Link to post Share on other sites
Cruzinnana47 Posted November 20, 2020 #44 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Received our email this AM....our May 2021 10-day Inside Passage cruise is cancelled. Certainly was expecting it. At least we didn't have to call ourselves to cancel and only paid the deposit. This makes 3 cancellations during 2020 for us. Wishing everyone luck in their future cruise planning. We look forward to SAFELY cruising again. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Is the oct 21 Quebec to FLL permanently cancelled like all Princess cruises through march 31 or temporarily cancelled because of the CDC and Canadian cruise ship ban. If it's the latter, then there is the possibility the cruise could happen if both bans were lifted. Link to post Share on other sites
