Linking your Royal Caribbean sailings with your friends' sailings

Published: 4 September 2024

You can link your friends' sailings to your own account, allowing you to view their sailing details and make reservations and bookings for them in the cruise planner or in the app.

Why link your sailings

There are several reasons why you might want to link your friend's sailing to your account. These include:

  • You want to ensure that you have reservations to the same shows or specialty dining at the same time on the same days
  • You are organising a larger group of people and want to ensure that you are all doing the same things
  • You are travelling with family members and want to have the same experiences
  • You want to purchase an experience as a gift for your friend

How to link your sailings

You can link your friends's sailings to your sailing through the Royal Caribbean website as well as through the Royal Caribbean app.

Restrictions

There are certain restrictions that apply to a linked booking. If you have a friend's booking linked to your account you can make reservations to shows, purchase packages such as dining, drinks or Internet packages. You can also see what purchases and bookings they have made.

You CANNOT remove or change any reservations or purchases that your friend has made on their own booking, you can only make changes that you have yourself added to their booking. Similarly, they cannot remove reservations or purchases that you have made on their booking.

Linking is not reciprocal

When you link your friend's sailing to your account you can access information about your friend's sailing, but they cannot access information about your sailing. They would have to link your sailing to their account to get the same access as you have.
