xnavyss Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 Transfer of a Casino Cruise to a Travel Agent Can this be done ? When I get the Casino Offer’s they are normally for an Interior or Ocean View. I usually upgrade to a Balcony and pay the difference. Awhile ago I tried to transfer a casino cruise to a TA and the TA told me Casino Cruises can no longer be transferred to a TA. Does anyone know if this is still True ?

WAAAYTOOO Posted January 9, 2021 Report Share Posted January 9, 2021 I have had mixed results with this, recently. I usually ask my TA to try and transfer the booking(as opposed to asking CR to do it). Sometimes the booking gets transferred and sometimes it doesn’t. Very frustrating. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharla Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 It can definitely be done. I have not heard of any rule changes on this one. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjChefSteve Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 On this same topic, do you still get your Crown and Anchor points for a free casino sailing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sushitex Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Yes, as far as I know. We've only been on 4 comped or discounted (through Club Royale) cruises, but we've also collected Crown and Anchor points for going on those cruises. cruisellama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Back when the "global pause" started there were definitely casino comps that were not eligible for transfer to or management by a TA. They eased up a bit on that later but there were still some that they would not allow me to transfer. Frankly, I just quit trying and booked and managed all of the casino bookings myself after trying a few times. It was just easier than asking my TA to go on a wild goose chase and end up with nothing for her trouble. I currently have 9 casino bookings (all of which have been upgraded to suites) and none of them were transferred to@michelle. It's not b/c I didn't want to do that...it's b/c it was just too much work for her to try and get them transferred just to be told "no". I think that once cruising starts back up they will go back to allowing the agents to manage the comp cruises but now....not so much. Having said that, I would definitely try and see what happens.

Hagar Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 The only customer I have that qualifies for the free casino rate usually upgrades but the rep requests FULL payment right away. This keeps them from requesting the transfer to me ; "Bookings may only be transferred to a Travel Advisor up until 60 days from creation if the request is made outside of Final Payment period and the booking is not paid in full." I don't mind since there isn't much meat left on the bone at that point (more importantly, they are friends and I want them to get all of the best deals they can) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
