Should I change one name on my room or move to another room with brother's family?

I'll explain the simplest way I know.

My DH and I currently have connecting OV rooms for the Fantasy next May. My brother, his wife and two of their children have connecting OV rooms next door.

When we booked, it was going to be DH and I in one, DD and her best friend in another. Due to numerous changes with DH's job, and DD's best friend not being able to go, I will eventually need to cancel one of our rooms. Well, it looks like DD might not go now, as she'd rather take a mini-mester in college, to graduate sooner. DH is fine with me going alone (actually, I'll still be traveling with my brother's family.)

Should I (after I cancel one of my rooms) change my husband's name, and have my nephew share a room with me? I'm platinum, and he'd be able to join the adults at Palo (and have the complimentary Palo meal.) Or....

Should I cancel both of my rooms, and just share one of the connecting rooms (with my niece and nephew?) If I do that, would I lose my onboard OBC? If his nephew shares a room with me, he'll cancel one of his connecting OV rooms.

I'd call DCL, but I know they already busy enough with all of the cruise cancellations.

I'm leaning toward option one.

Thank you!

If you want the end result to be that you have a connecting room with your brother that you and his 1 or 2 children are booked into, they can cancel their reservation for that stateroom and you can move your reservation into that room, keeping your OBC and then dropping your husband from the res and adding at least one of the kids (since you have to pay the full cost of 2 adults for your room anyway). I believe that you and your brother or SIL will both need to be on the phone with DCL to make that happen simultaneously and not risk losing that specific stateroom #. Or if you have the same TA, let him/her handle it.

Thank you. We each booked our own reservations. Maybe we can both get on the phone with DCL.

I would totally do what was suggested above. Your brother cancels his reservation and u move yours to his connecting room. Then u can keep your platinum privileges. U can keep both nephew and niece in your room or just one of them as u prefer.

Enjoy!!
