I'm looking to book the Ruby Princess 7 Day Eastern Carribean cruise departing Jan 22. I have the following options to book online:

1/ Expedia - blanket no int't cc accepted. I have done a search on this forum and some people have mentioned the use of 99999 and CA as state but I notice that they ask where to send the cruise documents. I am worried they will send this to the fictional address which will obviously create problems later.

2/ Orbtiz / Priceline - on these sites if you don't have a US zip code they state the following:

If you do not have a U.S. zip code and/or you would like to pay for your cruise using an international credit card, please call 800-735-8000 to speak to a cruise specialist who will assist you with your cruise purchase.
Your Cruise Reference ID: 509582


However, when I call them they say this doesn't exist and they don't accept int'l CCs.

I'm based in HK and the fares online are around $200 cheaper per person for a balcony room so I'm inclined to try any way possible to book online.

Anyone have any experience on this? It would be very helpful.

PS I have a UK credit card but I checked on expedia.co.uk etc and they dont have a cruise function for me to browse through...

Thanks
