My trip supposedly on the 8th March...they are offering $300 credits for us both....but I don't know what I can do with it....can anyone help me abt this...thanks in advance

Hmmm so they cancel and offer you a onboard 300 credits ( 2 x 150)as compensation?

The credits is for onboard spending like F & B etc

Did you rebook or take a full refund?

If you rebook then you can use the 300 credit onboard..But if you refund then maybe you can check can you use for future trips or is there a expiry?

My personal view is you should rebook and use the credit..300 can go for meals onboard & buy wifi or some gifts to enhance your trip

Duno why they dun want continue the weekend which maybe easier as no port call..Like do 2 x 3d2n cruise to nowhere per week

hvnt got a chance to speak to my host yet.

some questions remain for members..They are some e credits which expire within 3months so will they extend it? also for TP will they extend as u cant go up to clock and maintain status..

They will need to park both ships in malaysia i think.. Maybe take this times to do some staff training, enchancements or take out the mattresses sun it (after many ah neh sleep on it lol)etc..

You should get Food & Beverages Credits if you had booked your cruise from travel agent paying by cash. It can be used onboard to dine at speciality restaurants or order drinks (wine, beer, cocktails, cafe etc) in restaurant/bar/cafe. You just need to let the crew to swap your cabin card upon ordering to charge to your cabin card.

Before the last day of cruise or before arriving back SG, just proceed to Frontdesk at midship deck 6 to settle your final bill. The F&B credits given will be used to offset these spendings and any extra just pay them in cash/credit card.

Do take note there's a 18% service charge on top of the prices.

I doubt you can use F&B Credits to buy wifi or gifts but good to double check onboard in case they allowed.

i was compensated once for 125 onboard credit..I know F&B sure can use cos i use for the KTV and some drinks...

Anyway call centre nor membership hotline will not know what can be used nor even dream elite.. So best way is double check onboard with the front office. I think wifi can...

Thanks for the info. 👍
Planned to go onboard 23/2 free cabin with $50 credit....☹️🙄
I guess for the next few months, GD will have to rely on the regular gamblers to fill up the cabins. I forsee more offer of free cabins 😀
