anjanetted Posted March 8, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I am new to cruising and read a lot of posts about prices being lowered for OBC and room upgrades. I have tried reading back to see how you do this but I haven't had any luck. I would love some help. Are their sited to go to to check rates, If they have changed what do I do?? I have also read about people getting room upgrades. How does this work??? I am traveling with a family of 5 so I would appreciate any help in getting prices lowered.

firefly333 Posted March 8, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 8, 2011 You need to know first of all which rate you booked under, as that determines the procedures. thats #1 and since you didnt mention it ..thats the first step. then make sure you know the price individually for each pax for the cruisefare. I pick a TA online site and look up my cruise prices and check to see if it went up or down. I find Carnival's fareviewer to be lacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kr8z Posted March 8, 2011 #3 Share Posted March 8, 2011 It depends upon what rate you book under. If you book Early Saver then you can get your price adjusted up to 2 days prior to sailing. Other rates after final payment is due you can only do an upgrade and not OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anjanetted Posted March 9, 2011 Author #6 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Do you have a TA site that you use regularly?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted March 9, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Do you have a TA site that you use regularly?? Yes, for price checks but I book thru a PVP at Carnival. Its against the rules on CC to mention any TA site by name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anjanetted Posted March 10, 2011 Author #8 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Sorry, I didn't know about the rule. Also, when we booked we got one price for the first two of us and a lower price for the other three. When you figure price per person do you just divide it out from the total??
