Creator's Key Takeaways

They've notified passengers who some of them are very upset and some of them are excited because maybe that week works better for them.

Royal Caribbean is doing that. And I think some people may take advantage of that because a lot of people who booked the July 11th selling did so to be the first ones on board.

They're offering up to $400 in change fees per person. If you want to move your cruise and you're having issues with the airline... Royal Caribbean says, 'We'll reimburse you up to $400 per person.' That's awesome.

Even if you can change, it's going to be a lot of work uh to get it ready.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Contact Royal Caribbean if you want to move your July 11th booking to the July 4th inaugural cruise.
Ask Royal Caribbean to reimburse up to $400 per person for airline change fees.
Check MSC Cruises for price comparisons and status matching options.
