New rules on rebating and
transferring of cruise bookings
Effective
May 1, 2012
•
New Rebating Policy
No agency can advertise rebating more than
5% of the NET cruise fare.
•
Transfer of Bookings
Transfer of bookings from one agency to
another or from a direct Regent booking to
an agency needs
to be transferred within
30 days from the date of booking or the new agency receives zero
commission.
•
Onboard Bookings
Onboard bookings will be automatically sent
to the agency that booked the guest on their
current cruise.
A guest cannot request a new agency or to
book direct with Regent.
If they do not want to work with the agency
that originally booked them then they must
contact that agency and get the
booking released to either a new agency or to Regent directly. They
will need to transfer that booking within 30
days of the
date of the booking NOT from the date of debarkation or the new
agency receives zero commission.
