Princess ups FCC for canceled cruises
The troubled Regal Princess cruise ship is expected to resume sailing November 10.
Princess Cruises canceled a second scheduled cruise on Sunday and says repairs are going well.
The two Western Caribbean cruises departing from Galveston, Texas were scrapped due to technical issues.
Passengers who were booked on the canceled October 27 and November 3 voyages were refunded and offered a 25% future cruise credit.
The cruise line has now doubled this to a 50% FCC.
The revised FCC will automatically be applied.
A cruise line spokesperson said the ship will be ready for the November 10 cruise.
“We are actively communicating with guests booked on this voyage to keep them informed.”
The technical difficulties reportedly surfaced during its transatlantic journey from Southampton, England.
The October 27 sailing was canceled just two days ahead of its planned departure.
