DCL Word Problem...HELP

[pontikes67]

Okay, my kids are always doing word problems. Here's my 'word problem' as it relates to DCL.

Scott has a back to back cruise booked that was booked on board their last cruise. He received a Discounted Fare for the front end of the cruise (a 4 night) and the standard fare for the back end. Scott is planning to cancel his 2nd reservation and move the first reservation to a cruise in early 2019. Can Scott move the Discount to the new reservation AND if he added a 2nd room would the Discount apply to both rooms?

What if the 2 rooms are occupied by the same 4 guests from the original back to back cruise?


Please double check your work

Scott can move the reservation to a different cruise and still get the onboard booking perks. For the one room. Onboard booking perks are only applicable on however many reservations were originally made onboard for a future cruise.

In order to receive an onboard booking discount for two rooms there must have been two reservations made onboard for the same future cruise.

I agree with PrincessShmoo, but in double checking her work would like to add that you would only get the onboard booking discount for the one room if you book a new cruise that travels within 24 months of the time in which you booked the original placeholder.

 

[PrincessShmoo]

OH, and I'll add the discount will only apply IF the cruise taken is begun within the 24 month window that opened when the original reservation was made onboard.

EDIT: then I read formyboys answer.

Nice Work! I give your reply a 100%!

I am not smart. I should always just book a couple of rooms when on board for flexibility. Oh well, lesson learned.
