RC booking on board?

[hanna]

What are the advantages of booking a cruise while on board?

You get onboard credits...for your next cruise...

And the booking is easily transferred to your regular TA. They'll take care of that for you at the time of booking. .

Exactly Sheila...if you are booked through a TA for the sailing you are on...the TA that booked you will get credit for the "new onboard booking"....if you so choose.

This is always a nice surprise when clients do this!

I have also been able to get cabins that do not show up as available.

If you chose you can book it as a direct booking and then transfer it to a TA later.

Ok, OBC. I had read somewhere about Next Booking Credit? I think that's what it was called? Whats that?

[djgifford]

Same difference Hanna... they also offer a special lower deposit...

Now...if you book onboard, get that cruise credit...then you transfer to a TA, or it is already with the TA that has a group, with an onboard credit, and you have a balcony and are a diamond member...lots of on board credits

I see. So the best thing to do is:
Book on board for the NBC ...right? And then go from there?

[djgifford]

Hanna, I would say so...it can really be a wonderful benefit...and if you change your mind later on the cruise...you can switch to something else and still get the goodies!

Bless you Dolores. I do hope that the cruise we are going on next isn't too crowded in the booking area. Last time I tried to do that, I had to wait almost 2 hours and ended up not booking on board.
