Kelli0927 Posted June 28, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I need some help from the experts. We've cruised 5x all with RC and in the past (even before covid) I was able to call and re-price a Cruise. Is there a certain cutoff where I'm not allowed to do that? We sail Dec 18 and I saw that the fare has dropped quite a bit since booking so I called C&A to re price. She said that my sailing is not eligible for re price because it was booked after Cruise with confidence ended. Is she right or should I call back to speak with someone else?

This seems to be happening a lot. Re-pricing is alive and well and is different than the Cruise With Confidence deal that expired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted June 28, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Cruise with confidence only affected reprices after final payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2sailAgain Posted June 28, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Did you call the Crown and Anchor number? I called about something else and the rep checked to see if the fare had dropped without me even asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called back today and had no problem with repricing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad you have to keep calling until you find a competent phone rep but at least it got settled. I did the exact same thing with a far less important issue not too long ago. Completely wrong info one day... taken care of properly with no hassle the next day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has only been in the last 3-6 months that they have hired huge numbers of new reps who really are still learning. They came in and started during Covid and CWC and don't know the pre covid policies. So much of their training is on the job and learn by experience as opposed to learning and being trained fully prior to starting 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those that booked prior to March 31 that sail by Sept 30 can still get price drops after final payment. Those that booked after March 31 are not covered. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
