Jill Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 I’m thinking no but thought I’d ask. Friends booked through Royal for our upcoming cruise this spring. Now they cannot go. We have family that would like their cabin as it’s next to ours. Is there anyway to do this? Family knows they would be priced at todays pricing. Just would be nice if they could be next to us. Not a whole lot of inventory left either. Thanks for any advice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireFishII Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Talk to a TA. They may be able to help since they talk directly to RCL. I know that for one of my cruises, I did not like the locations of our family cabins (all spread apart). My TA was able to get 3 almost in a row (1 cabin in between the 3.) Maybe the TA can do the cancelation followed immediately with the new booking and grab the canceled cabin. Neesa and Jill 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokeybandit Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 I know you can replace all but one of the names on the reservation without penalty. But can you then replace the leftover original person later as Step 2 after changing the rest of the names? Jill and Pattycruise 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ampurp85 Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 I was going to suggest what @smokeybandit stated. Maybe add one or more your family. Then wait a day or 2 and change the other names. Jill 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 Not sure I understand the recommendation but I believe the rule is that at least one of the original pax must remain on the reservation….forever. So you can never completely replace everyone from the original res. From what I understand, this “rule” keeps someone from purchasing a cruise and the re-selling it down the road, for a profit.

Sharla Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 One original passenger must remain on the res. If they cancel then you can snap the cabin up almost immediately. If it's a non-refundable deposit they are out of luck with that but the new guests can take the room.
