Episode Description from the Publisher

Can Royal Caribbean take away a cruise you already booked? We explain what overbooking emails mean, why cruise lines ask for volunteers, whether GTY cabins face more risk, and what to check before accepting a refund or future cruise credit. Overbooked cruises are rare, but knowing your options can help you make a calm, informed decision. **Travel Insurance for Cruisers** https://www.profmelissa.com/travelinsurance **Travel agent referral** https://www.profmelissa.com/travelagent
