TeRriii Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Price for UDP for my sailing is SGD 273. But in USD the price is USD 167. So the exchange rate is 1 SGD = 0.61 USD. This month average exchange currency rate 1 SGD = 0.73 USD. Why the rate that RC give so awful ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 That's a great question. It seems packages like drink and dining packages share the same terrible exchange rates while voom plans, photo packages and shore excursions are charged closer to a normal retail conversion rate. I'd contact Royal on social media and ask them why certain items like drink and dining plans have different exchange rates compared to internet, photo packages and shore excursions.

Also different items have its own rate. Weird. Baked Alaska 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do certain things attract a 18% service charge and some don't. The US price usually doesn't include the 18% while I know in Australia at least the price you see is what you pay.
