Rare SpainAlien Posted February 5, 2021 #1 Share Posted February 5, 2021 So, my final payment is due 12th February for a cruise going from Barcelona (I live in Spain), what do you think the odds are that Royal will announce the next round of cancellations before then? When did they announce April's cancellations? I have to make final payment we have none refundable deposits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare SpainAlien Posted February 5, 2021 Author #6 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I will make the final payment and get the refund, I already have four other cruises booked in 2021/2022 so if this one doesn't go ahead I'll take the money and run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cublet Posted February 5, 2021 #8 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Hello, My first choice will be L&S to May 2022 and if that is not offered then I'll take the refund. 2022, ex Southampton, is up to 45% more than 2021. Regards, Cublet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vplsh Posted February 5, 2021 #9 Share Posted February 5, 2021 We have a May 9 cruise out of Galveston booked and final payment is due on February 8. I think we'll pay for it as well and see what happens. Fortunately we don't have any other FCCs to worry about! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Cublet Honestly if the Harmony of the Seas was going from Barcelona next year I would have done L&S too but we only really fancied that one or Symphony. My son is booked in a Virtual balcony and they don't have them on the Allure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we wait. I am afraid to ask for a refund on that one. We have a $500 payment on it from Royal's insurance that I am afraid we would lose if we don't take the FCC.

I think the OP was referencing a May 2021 cruise, given the final payment date quoted. So if there were FCCs on that cruise and RCL cancels May, then the FCCs would roll up into the refund.

Only if the FCC came from a sailing that Royal cancelled previously would it be refunded. FCC's that originated as a result of a customer cancellation CWC are never refunded...even if the cruise line cancels the cruise they were applied to. They are reinstated.

I paid it off so that I can get a cash refund when it eventually cancels m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
