Mljstr Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 We made a late booking for our cruise and there are very few excursions listed on the cruise planner as available. Is it possible to book an excursion and then get on a waitlist onboard with the idea of canceling the first booking if our preferred excursion becomes available?

Dan Curtis Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 I believe you can cancel, not 100 per cent sure, we never have but I would ask at excursion desk be make sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melski94 Posted February 6, 2020 Report Share Posted February 6, 2020 Cancellations onboard do happen. Just go the shore excursion desk right away before they get really busy. Personally, I'd use trip advisor to search for a similar excursion from a 3rd party. Many 3rd parties offer the same excursion to RC as well as the public and often for less than RC charges.

I have used "Viator" for shore excursions and they were just as professional as RC shore excursions. @Mljstr I also believe you can get a discount for your first time you use them. Just be mindful of the times you are at the port and see if the excursion works into your port timeline. Have Fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To follow up on what @melski94 said, we just received an e-mail from AAA marketing their excursions (in our ports of call) up to 40% off. So you do have options....
