People blame IT too much.  RC books hundreds of cruises per day.  There's not some piece of code that said "oh I'm going to give this reservation a random payment and deposit date"

Still seems like something we don't know (not that it's the fault of the OP)

 

I guess you have not spent time developing complex computer systems.  Yes, intermittent errors DO occur.  And they are hard to track down, because they don't happen all the time.

What are AARP certificates?  How do you get them?

Sorry I looked back and saw AARP gift certificates.  I assume these can be purchased.  Any discount or monetary benefit of having them?

Some cruise lines give an AARP cruise fare discount - I know Norwegian (on certain cruises and Ponant (all cruises so far); the Ponant gives the $300 per person discount to US citizens (it used to be $600 per person when I booked 2 cruises with Ponant - March 8, 2020 and June 26, 2022 cruises).  I don't know whether either of these 2 discounts might be referred as a "certificate".

 Yes  AARP members can buy gift cards with a 10% discount, so $100 cost $90

Royal Caribbean- submitted to sharedservicesgiftcertificateRedemption@rccl.com exactly as per their instruction. 

 

 

It does say "Please allow up to 10 business days."  you might as well say 3 weeks.

Did you finally get your credits used ?   

 

I am going through this now.
