Thank you. I applied the maiden voyage refund of cost FCC to a cruise in January. The amount applied was more than the balance of the cruise. The rest of the FCC has disappeared.

We did the same for a March cruise, I was told that the balance of the FCC would be credited back after that cruise was completed and could be applied to another future cruise. It’s only a small amount so not a major problem if that doesn’t happen but time will tell. We had to pay the taxes at the time of booking as the agent said any cruise booked using the maiden FCC had to be paid in full at the time of booking.

We should get the balance after our next cruise as we are hoping to book the same cruise as Riocca from Gran Canaria to Lisbon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Miggins Posted August 9, 2022 #34 Share Posted August 9, 2022 Our FCC certificate has now been applied to the booking for the Spanish Intensive June 3rd 2023 that we made onboard in April. Confirmation invoice received from our TA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benthayer Gonbak Posted August 12, 2022 #35 Share Posted August 12, 2022 We were due a FCC from a cruise in late 2019, it seemed to took quite a while to received. We had made reservations for 2021 so we had plenty of time for it to show up. I think it arrived before everyone got laid off! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you receive OBC? We would rather have OBC but just received ours and it is FCC that I don’t think we can use before June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riocca Posted August 18, 2022 #39 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Just received ours as well, thought they were going to apply it directly to clear the outstanding balance for our October cruise. Going to have to brave telephoning Azamara tomorrow to check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Ravenna is shown as your departure point, despite flying into Venice, then I do not think you will get OBC. Our port change in April was one of the first from Ravenna. We expected to be in Marghera/Fusina nearer Venice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barneyboy Posted August 19, 2022 #42 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Our email states that the FCC is because of feedback from the maiden voyage. It doesn’t mention that it is due to the change from Venice to Ravenna which is what we were expecting. Seems strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not it’s going to be interesting if they choose to stay at Ravenna or change to Trieste either way it’s going to cause problems with transfers to the port. Our next cruise from Venice is October 2023 so we’ll hold off on getting the outbound flight until we know what’s happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that, did wonder if having refunded the cruise cost for the maiden they thought that there was no requirement for this FCC. If that was the case it should have been communicated in the maiden refund email and maybe they realise this. Anyway gratefully received and spent on an extra cruise so Azamara have gained from it 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed this had been cancelled when we received the FCC for our entire cruise cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the note in the cabin, but nothing further, so I assumed it had been superseded by the credit for the entire cruise. Until yesterday, when I got an email refunding a further $300. It was a total surprise! I felt I’d been more than fairly recompensed for every possible thing already, but an extra credit is always a very nice thing. It’s no wonder I am an Azamara loyalist!

I have my flight booked to Venice and my transfer with Azamara to the port (Venice or Ravenna) I think it’s a bit like Civitavecchia for Rome. The port will be listed as Rome, but of course the ships must call at Civitavecchia. I think Ravenna is a better deal currently than Marghera or Fusina, since it’s not very industrial. Other options may open up in the future, but not for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
