cruisetravlr Posted August 31, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 31, 2022 We have a cruise booked on the NS for next Feb. After booking, we submitted for our military OBC and received it. When I noticed our cruise fare had dropped, I requested a re-fare from our PCC for the lower rate. When she did this, we lost our military OBC. I have tried re-submitting but it’s been 2 weeks and have not heard anything. Is it possible that since I am using the same booking number that it’s being rejected? Should I contact my PCC on this or is there another way to handle it? Original request was under my husband’s name. New request is also in his name. I, too, am a veteran. Would it help to submit it in my name or not because it’s still the same booking number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same thing happened to us. My husband is the veteran. I re-applied for the military credit and it was added to my re-fared booking. Same booking number and still under my husband’s name. It happened within a day or two. We don’t have a PCC. I do all bookings myself. Maybe re-apply? It shouldn’t be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, perhaps as the other poster mentioned shareholder credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some years Princess has given a military OBC in the same amounts as the CCL Stock credits. Maybe @LewiLewiis remembering Princess? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Military credit, not HAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that there should have some response as you heard back in a couple of days. Any suggestions on who to contact and how (phone #s, email, etc.) would be appreciated.

SusieKIslandGirl Posted September 1, 2022 #12 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Unfortunately, it's per cabin, not per person. Military Appreciation Offer Bonus Onboard Spending Money Limit: One (1) onboard spending money credit (“Offer”) per stateroom. Offer is only applicable for active and retired military service members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
