Can anyone who was booked on the Pride of America and changed over to the Aloha tell me IF your price was protected and if you got the same kind of cabin you had booked on the America? Thanks in advance. Laurey

I was booked on the America in a balcony cabin dead center (right outside the glass elevators) and put on the Aloha in a balcony on the same deck but towards the front of the ship.

Thanks Maltesemom and did they protect the original price you had agreed to pay for the America? I have heard that the Aloha is more expensive in the same "type" of categories. Laurey

I had two aft cabins and an inside(across the hall) and was moved to one aft, one (inside down the hall) and a balcony on the next deck up midship. Price stayed the same. I did go check pricing on NCL's website and new bookings are almost 2x what I payed.

Price stayed the same, but like marqu1241 I have noticed that new bookings are double in price.
I also understand that NCL was bumping people off the ship and then selling their rooms, or else telling some people that their rooms were not available and giving them different rooms only to turn around and sell the rooms that were already booked by passengers at a higher price, Don"t know if this is true but have been reading it on the boards.

I have this uneasy feeling that there will be problems with passengers finding out when they are boarding that they have been moved to a different (and most likely not better) room and getting a take it or leave it mentality. Hope the next few cruises prove me wrong and people come back with glowing reports. From what I am hearing on the boards, if they offered me the 200% credit and full refund they were offering people on the repo cruise, I would jump at it and just do a land based trip to Hawaii.
