FCC and Refundable Deposits

[vjmatty]

On our last cruise we were given FCC’s for a faulty jacuzzi, equal to 25% of the cruise fare with a one year deadline. If the FCC’s are used on a new booking with a refundable deposit, will they be lost if I decide later to change the sailing date?  In other words, does the refundability include the FCC’s?

It does not matter of the booking is refundable or not.

 

Since you have to pay a deposit (Those FCC's cannot be used as a deposit) the FCC's would be reinstated as long as you cancelled prior to final payment.  After final payment they would be subject to the cancellation penalties on the booking whether it's a refundable or non refundable booking.

 

When they are reinstated they are subject to the same use by and sail by dates of the original FCC which in this case given the type of FCC it is would have a use by and sail by date of 12 months from the date of issue

Thanks…. I kind of figured that they’d be applied independent of the deposit but wasn’t sure.
