aberfoylespring Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Hello, I know lots of questions about FCC were asked here, but I could not find a similar one like mine. Thanks for your help in advance! According to my understanding, the FCC is issued for EACH guest, not for a family (please correct me if there is misunderstanding). Assuming the FCC received for each guest in my family is: Adult 1: $1500 Adult 2: $1500 Kid: $700 That is, the total FCC for my family is $3700. As indicated, the future cruise that I select has kids sail free promotion. The summary shows: 3 Guests $7,697.00 Free Kids NRD -$2,827.00 Subtotal: $4,870.00 Taxes & Fees: $255.00 Total For Room (after discounts): $5,125.00 I click the "Pricing by Guest", it shows: Guest 1 Taxes & Fees $85.00 Cruise Fare $3,479.00 Guest 2 Taxes & Fees $85.00 Cruise Fare $3,479.00 Guest 3 Taxes & Fees $85.00 Cruise Fare $739.00 Discounts & Credits Free Kids NRD $2,827.00 Average cost per person $1,708.33 ======== I try to understand how the FCC will be used in this situation. 1) Will the FCC $3700 be used to against the total cruise fare $4870? 2) Or will the FCC for each guest be used to against the cruise fare for each guest? However, in this situation, "Kid sail free" promotion makes the cruise fare for each guest is unclear. Can somebody help me to understand how it works? Thanks a lot!!

Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 The FCC is used for the cruise fare portion of each individual guest. KSF is an awesome promo, except in times like this where you are trying to use a FCC. Because the kids are not paying a cruise fare, you will not be able to use/apply their FCCs to any sailing that involves KSF. You will only be able to apply the FCC to those who are paying a cruise fare. Neesa, aberfoylespring and Ogilthorpe 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the example I put above, I know I cannot apply my kid's FCC because "kid sail free". So how much is two adults' cruise fare in above example? It's obviously not $3479 for each, but how much is it?

The FCC should be issued exactly as it is on the invoice. So whatever the amount was for Passenger 1, that will be the amount of the FCC. Whatever the amount was for Passenger 2, that will be the amount of the FCC for that person, etc. (not counting taxes and fees of course, just the cruise fare portion).

I know how much the FCC is. My question is, in my next cruise, how much is each adult.guest's cruise fare, after the kid sail free promotion?

If you do a mock booking online, it should show you the breakdown on the final screen. *edit...I see what you mean now about the funny math. I am not 100% clear on how they break it down either but basically, you can apply your FCC for the adults and you will have to save the kids for another time. aberfoylespring 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeWhoWaits Posted March 20, 2020 Report Share Posted March 20, 2020 And the opposite effect is true if your cancelled cruise was KSF. If you book on a cruise with expenses for the kids, the FCC doesn't help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
