Irieman 262 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 Hello all - I have two cruises, not paid in full, that I booked about 90 days ago. I really would like to move them to an agent. Anyone have success doing that after the listed 60 day window? Thanks for any advice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My MEI agent (Michelle Cunningham) has never had a problem moving cruises even if it has been more than 60 days and even when they were paid in full ! 1 Mljstr reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, she was out for an Easter break. I think she is back now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twangster 20,848 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 There are exceptions made but I don't know how that process goes. I once had an agent get a transfer done shortly after final payment was made. I don't know how hard they had to fight to get it transferred but they did. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joshvc 57 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 If you book via NextCruise or perhaps just off the website, then transfer to your travel agent, do they get commissioned for your cruise, or do they just get to service it in hopes that you'll use them next time?

tiny260 1,602 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 I think they may get something from Royal, truthfully I've never asked. My MEI agent (Michelle) started with 1 and is now up to 6 with me, so maybe they just hope it pays off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheHobbys 613 Report post Posted April 24, 2019 If you have a TA, make sure to bring their info (agent name / agency name / agency IATA # / agency address / agency phone) with you to NextCruise. They should be able to assign it to your TA. We are going to try and book out 2021 cruise during our upcoming cruise June 6 on Anthem and have our TA's info. This info will allow your TA to service your new reservation. As far as the commission, that may be up to the agency your TA is associated with. Technically, if they are servicing your next cruise they might get it - but would need more info from an actual TA about that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
