In the US you only impact your deposit if you change ship or sail date on a non-refundable booking.
Even then you don't lose your deposit entirely, there is a $100 fee per person and the rest of the deposit becomes a future cruise credit.   That is only when you change the ship or sail date.
Typically before final payment due date you can upgrade your cabin.  I suggest calling again and speaking with a different agent.
 

@TheJones oh my so Sorry. It is on this blogs home page. I'm trying to figure out if I can link it now.

teenager to the rescue!

@Ogilthorpe and @dodgestang obviously need help with their surplus...hoarding t.p. is one thing, but I draw the line at booze! 
 

I can be there from Winterville in a little under two hours!

Found out today my kids will be home through April.... Acting accordingly. 

Were you following me as I got my breakfast? ?
 

So does that bring it to 20 years to implement this supposedly vital piece of national security legislation?  I think this law was cursed!

My wife's office is closed for at least 7 week so I have to use the check to pay bills ?

I'm definitely thinking about it. If not book a new one, move/pay off one I already have booked. Between the stimulus check and an FCC, that would put me well on my way!

No stimulus for either of us but honestly, we don’t need it. We are both still working full time even though retirement is imminent for me.  If I was getting one it would definitely be going to the citizens’ cruise ship industry stimulus fund.  ??

I am definitely thinking on a dining package - skipping the MDR except for lobster night....For me, this is pushing the envelope!

It was an unexpected deviation from policy, until a couple of weeks ago, we couldn't even buy wine in a grocery store ... now mixed drinks to go!  There is the provision that food has to be part of the order.  At the same time, I could imagine ..."I would like a French fry .... and 12 Harvey Wallbangers ....to go" ????

A small change to the wording of the order made ALL the difference, originally, it read "original and closed containers" then it was changed to "original OR closed containers" that opened up all sorts of possibilities!! Have a gallon jug with a cap? ... now you have a party!???

I love seeing all of the creative ways American businesses are innovating to overcome the negative effects of this misery.  Most of our local restaurants are providing take out and delivery and providing support (meals) to our local HCP and first responders.  It really is heart warming and a reminder that nothing is more powerful than love and good ol’ American ingenuity. I don’t think our liquor laws allow alcohol to be taken out.  I haven’t heard of anything like that, locally.  

Spaghettios aspic?

Same to all the above here in Maryland.
I can't help but wonder if the liquor stores staying open (here, they're doing online/call-in order with curbside pickup) are a reaction to all the kids being home from school. ? ?

So far, Gov. Hogan of Maryland has stopped short of a shelter-in-place order, but I can't help but think (and as someone in the world of emergency management, kinda hope) that it's coming soon enough. More non-essential businesses were closed today, and of course, there's still no word on when the Cruise Maryland Terminal will re-open. I'm definitely staring down RCCL over my June cruise to Canada; I've got a July itinerary booked, too...but I really don't want to go ahead and cancel the June one because I'm inside final payment and I'd rather Royal blink first and I get the better deal.
We cruisers are a stubborn bunch!
 

Only if you share. ?

We are simple people.  Just bring beer and maple syrup ?

I'm hoping to get a clear answer on Adventure going TO New England/Canada on June 4 when y'all get back. Everything seems to be pointing to the notion that they'll point their cruises south for the time being -- and I'm the opposite of you -- I don't wanna go that way...it's not what I paid or booked for, so I get you not wanting to go north! ?

That's certainly one way to get me to avoid eating up all the stay-in-place supplies. ?
