Too late to add a person?

[raven0855]

We are cruising on the dream 1/29 and now we have a friend who would like to join us. Is it too late to add someone?

TIA

Call DCL and ask. We can hypothesize, but only DCL can give you a yes or no answer.

going to depend on whether you have a stateroom that has enough capacity for the extra person, and whether they will fit in the spaces assigned for muster. If your muster drill station is full they will not allow anyone else to be added. If you still wanted to add a person you might have to move your entire party to a different stateroom, which may or may not cost more.

My TA called and is coming back with a much higher cat than if we would have added her when originally booked. Im slightly confused why it would cost so much more- has anyone done this before?

If you change categories on the same cruise, the cost for the new room will be what it cost on the day you made the original booking (FOR THOSE PEOPLE ALREADY ON THE RESERVATION). Any new people added pay what the cost would be for them now.

As noted, if you want to add a person to an already exisiting reservation, DCL asks 3 questions:
Is there space in the room for that person? (can't add a 4th person to a 3 person room, for example).
Is there space in the lifeboat that room is assigned to? (it's possible for a lifeboat to be full, even if all the beds in your room aren't full).
Is there space in the appropriate kid's club? (if applicable).

If the answer is "no" to any of these questions, the only way to add another person is (if possible) to change rooms/categories into a room that will make the answers all be "yes".
