Lovetocruise2002 Posted April 25, 2019 Report Posted April 25, 2019 From my understanding, if you miss final payment, they automatically cancel your reservation. tiny260 1 Quote

It may all depend on if you are using a TA or not. If you have a really good TA, they should be able to help you figure out what options you have available. If you don't have a TA - then you'll need to call RCL to figure out what options are available Quote

Asking for a friend... You might be able to get it back BUT they will make you pay whatever the cost of the room is now. Unless like everyone says you have a really good TA and they work their magic Quote

VinceC Posted April 25, 2019 Report Posted April 25, 2019 I am a Travel Agent and the first thing I do with my clients is put a reminder in my calendar and my CRM that the final payment is due, FIVE to SEVEN DAYS PRIOR, in case they I cant get in touch with them for a few days......

CyclingVa Posted April 25, 2019 Report Posted April 25, 2019 I'm not sure what you are insinuating by the "MY FRIEND" comment and the laughter. Do you think i'm lying about my story? The story is true, it was a friend that was traveling with me, and nothing happened. Do you really think royal, or any cruise line for that matter would just pull your booking for being 1 day late? They can, but they don't unless you are substantially late. Just like they can deny you boarding for bringing on alcohol but they don't, they just call you to the naughty room and take the booze. They want your money, they want you to travel and spend money Quote

fonemanbob Posted April 25, 2019 Report Posted April 25, 2019 Pay early. Get a good travel agent. We mark our calendar 3 weeks out. Each week says cruise final payment.
