Changing room to different passengers?

[jdb in AZ]

If FIL is still coming, maybe MIL will change her mind and come anyway. She should ask Dr. WHY NOT? Who is going to care for her at home if the whole family is on the ship?? Once the shock of the break has worn off, she will be more likely to want to go. Makes more sense for her to go and take it easy and be pampered all cruise. If the long flight is an issue, see if that can be broken up into two shorter with a night on the ground in between?? Seems a lot better than forfeiting her week in a suite and her being all alone.

The biggest problem would be danger from a blood clot due to the long plane trip. (DH had to cancel a trip to Europe a few years ago because of minor knee surgery.) But I would ask the doctor if two shorter flights would be o.k. Don't take her off the reservation yet.

Travel agent checked, and if we wanted to add a 3rd person to FIL's room, it would be about $1300. Which is more than I was hoping for :-(.

How much will it cost to add that third person to one of the other rooms? He/she doesn't have to sleep in the room he/she is booked into.

Yes, that seems logical to me too! I checked another 5 night cruise that still has 1 bedroom concierge, and it's about $300 more to add the 3rd person to it compared to adding the third person to a regular cabin. Perhaps it's similar for the OP's cruise?

Our other room is also a one-bedroom concierge, so price would be the same unfortunately. How much less to add an extra child, I wonder?

Thank you all for your help!

Hmmm, I also just checked another cruise, and where the first two adults were $1300 each, the third adult would only be $700. I think I'd better double check the number my travel agent gave me.
