ACtually if you are trying to add an onboard booking 5% to an already existing booking that is fully deposited you do not put down any more money.

It must be a booking that (a) is still offered at the same price (b) the cabin category is still available and (c) you are outside of cancellation. In other words if you could cancel and rebook the exact same thing. This is done on a "consideration" basis and is not "guaranteed' to be approved. In fact there are so many changes coming this may or may not be available in the future but right now it is available.

At this time you can keep rolling it forward. You must make the new booking at the exact same time you cancel the old booking. Eventually it will stay the same booking number and just change dates - that should be coming soon. This will help things a lot.

Only those of us in the business know what a trauma the operation of the onboard booking situation is. I spend 20% of every day dealing with these things. It should not be that difficult but it is. Rolling over from booking to booking trying to keep track of that - people forget and then want Radisson to tell them what they have. There is no central location in their system they cant just look at the computer. They have to pull up every sailing you were on to see if there is one and then track it from there. People constantly think they have not used them or that they made more than one and so tracking all that is time consuming. Also they can get lost in the system so be SURE to keep your letters and send a copy to your TA.

A lot of the new rules are because of these problems not to make it difficult for the passengers. I hope a better system will be forthcoming soon.

It is a nice savings and I still think it is worth doing. The savings are 5% and that can be substantial on some of the more expensive cruises.
