Air Canada Vacations Booking Codes?

[Nflder71]

Looking at booking through AC Vacations. When I look at the various price options there is this code: NOPRKBO75 NRD. I can guess what the codes stand for but when you hover over it, it says Non-Refundable.  Does that mean that just the deposit is non-refundable or the whole cruise cost is non-refundable?

That would depend on the cruise line and lead time to departure. ACV T&C here

 

Unless you are using/collecting aeroplan points for the cruise, I wouldn't use AC Vacations. Crappy customer service, hard to contact, little to no support.

Generally speaking "non-refundable" means that you cannot get your money back.

 

Generally speaking however if you cancel a flight within the airlines cancelation window - which may go up to just prior to the flight boarding - then you will retain the value of the fare for one year subject to change fees and increased fare.

 

Change fees can be high and moving your fare to another destination may jump the fare considerably.

 

You must read the cancel / change rules and look for the fees for canceling, changing, and so on...

 

I think with Air Canada VACATIONS it will depend on if you are just booking a flight vs. booking a full holiday.  This is where it gets confusing.

I am pretty sure that the NRD refers to it being a Non-refundable "deposit" rate.
