goofysmom99 Posted July 7, 2021 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2021 If I go through booking online and get to the payment page, does X offer a courtesy hold as they did in years past? I haven't booked directly since 2013 so I'm a bit out of touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieCharlieCharlie Posted July 7, 2021 #2 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Yes. Go through to choose the cabin, select and continue, review and pay. Click on the Celebrity X Cruises symbol in the left corner. It will ask if you want to Courtesy Hold or Exit or continue to book. Then you can fill in the info required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Turtles06 Posted July 7, 2021 #3 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I had the same issue over the weekend. There is no longer any easy way to do a courtesy hold on line by yourself. I confirmed this later with my CVP. You either have to get lucky by exiting the booking and getting a pop up that asks if you’d like to place a courtesy hold (and I was told the pop up doesn’t always appear), or you have to use the chat function on line, or call them.

Clicking in that spot just exits the booking. I tried several times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlieCharlieCharlie Posted July 7, 2021 #4 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I just did a mock one right now to review how to do this. It did not work for the one I tried that had already reached final payment, but it did work for one further out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any event, it’s like needing to know a secret handshake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofysmom99 Posted July 7, 2021 Author #6 Share Posted July 7, 2021 (edited) Thank you both for the input. Will try in the morning. It just might be within final payment. We shall see. Edited July 7, 2021 by goofysmom99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The secret handshake makes sense. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
