Creator's Key Takeaways

A passenger flew 17 hours from Texas to Sydney to board her cruise.

The offer is genuinely generous. Full refund of everything paid, plus 100% of the cruise fair back again as future cruise credit valid for 2 years.

But generous does not solve the problem for someone who just landed in Sydney after a 17-hour flight from Texas to take a bucket list trans-Pacific sailing.

The best protection against being caught in this situation is booking a specific cabin number rather than a guaranteed category.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book a specific cabin number rather than a guaranteed category to avoid being moved.
Be aware that move-over offers start when everyone shows up and cancellations don't materialize.
