Question on that. But could you book a cruise with next cruise and then later on when you get your annual complimentary coupon, could you put that on that cruise? So in other words, you reserve it to know you have it and then apply the annual later?

can a next cruise deposit be used for a cruise two years away?

thanks!!

Is there a place to find more information on the land tours pre or post cruise? I haven't been able to get much detail other than saying which city it would be in,

Is it possible to buy the sale price on the internet in advance plus use the free days as well? Or is it just one or the other? thx

Is it possible to book a sale price in advance and have the free days deducted as well?

My original question was answered assertively though, that as long as I am before that 90 day window, then I may apply that $500 trade in value from the upcoming annual tier cruise comp. I just ended up with a different situation now with the whole deposit thing

You got that right. I went ahead and booked one with a next cruise certificate and when I looked at the paperwork later, I noticed a deposit due amount of $700 due a week from now. I thought the whole idea of next cruise was to use less risk with a $200 deposit. Anyways, I called and first person said since its a 12 nite cruise, it needs more deposit. Second person said don't worry about it, it just showed up because the booking may have gone thru a different number. Very confusing. I got a good deal I don't want to lose but also don't want to plop down another $700 if that is the case. Guess I will call back again and try for a better answer.

Does anyone know if you can add the trade in value from the annual tier club royal comp cruise to an existing reservation before the 90 day final payment window?

Anyone know if an instant rewards from Royal could be used on a Celebrity cruise? thx

I don't see why not. And then I am assuming you would just pay the land portion............?

Agreed. I always wanted to go see southern Portugal but my understanding is alot of it may shutdown around that time of year. But I'm not sure.

I am still looking at this. I wasn't thrilled by the weather in portugal this time of year.

Our recent experience on Anthem and first as D+. We booked chops precruise for second night for one person. Once onboard, we went to chops and the manager understood the BOGO and added my wife to the reservation. Not sure if we were supposed to book in advance but in this case it worked.

Thanks . That helps. I was just confused if i used a refundable deposit in advance if it would end up costing more in the end result vs. getting a nonrefundable deposit. So in my estimation then, it seems it is a safer and equal bet to get a refundable deposit. I think. Yes, the tier certificate to be applied before final payment is due. When I click on the refundable deposit it shows it to cost $387 but then shows a deposit of $500. So I am gathering the total costs of the cruise goes up with the refundable deposit, even though the deposit seems to stay the same. So wouldn't it make sense to do the refundable just in case the certificate isn't accepted?

Once the 2024 tier certificate is applied would the ultimate cost of the cruise be the same as a non refundable deposit?

yes, that's what I meant the annual free cruise with prime. Any thoughts on a refundable vs. a nonrefundable deposit? If I do the refundable deposit and follow through with the cruise and the free coupon, am I losing out on the extra deposit in the end?

Just trying to confirm, if I buy a refundable cruise ticket say a year out..........can i use the annual comped certificate from crown and anchor as long as its before the 90 day final payment date?

I recently was on Anthem of the Seas and noticed they were also offering Celebrity cruises at the Next Cruise office. I think this is new. I wonder if there could be a slow merge of benefits between Royal and Celebrity?

Eclipse is still running in SA, I believe.

But are the drinks really compatible? As a diamond, you get 4 per day, but on celebrity you only would get happy hour from 5 to 7? Is that correct?

Yes. My mistake. I believe it is the casino program. Apparently, one can get comped and discounts and perhaps even the annual 7 day on celebrity. Perhaps, this has always been the case but I am just now learning

I have noticed chatter in some of the facebook groups about RCL members getting comps or discounts on Celebrity?. Is this something new?
