What's your best deal ever!!!

[Tripper10]

I was wondering what are some of the best deals you have ever had on a cruise price? Was the price through the cruise line or though a travel agent? Was it a upgrade to make it a good deal? What time of year was this cruise? Intrested to hear peoples thoughts.

 

Personally, I booked a last minute 7 day cruise in March with Costa Cruise line, booked with a online travel agent, one of the more popular ones for $299.00 per person. I was so happy with the deal and enjoyed Costa for a change of pace.

Late Nov - Early Dec - 5 day cruise booked through cruise lines = $164 pp. We were very happy with the price! Really enjoyed the cruise!

7 day western Caribbean in September $327 pp

The best deal I have even gotten is comming up this Sat.

I got the Dream 4G cabin for a TOTAL of $141 for 2 people.....

 

DH won at bingo on the Fantasy and we picked the dream for our free cruise.

Booked Dream a year in advance for Xmas week cruise 2010. They changed the 7 day cruise to a 9 dayer - we got 2 days for free. Then the price drops began, and we ended up with $1500 obc for 2 cabins by the time we cruised. That is by far the best deal we ever got!

7 day Conquest OV = $250 pp

Victory, 2001. Family of 4 = $636.00 inside cabin

[tiggerman101]

$189 solo price for a 4 day Majesty of the Seas cruise in December.

 

Mostly due to price drops, I now have $1,200 in OBC (for one cabin) on our upcoming Magic European cruise on June 12th.

I too got a great deal on a Costa cruise but I hated Costa. It was a waste of airfare. I did like their wine package but that was it...

[ooomwizard]

5 day cruise $120 TOTAL!

 

It was on the SS Veracruz out of Tampa in 1985. I was living in Germany and on vacation in FL to catch my sisters wedding. Ran into a guy who worked for the lines and told me the price, called Germany to extend my stay, and off I went.

 

The Veracraz was a very small ship, especially by todays standards. It was cozy and by the end of the cruise you felt like you knew everyone. It was great fun. One of it's sister ships was called CARNIVALE, which grew into the mega lines.

 

Those were the days. :rolleyes:

An inside cabin on the veranda deck ON THE CARNIVAL PRIDE....single occupancy for $429.oo. I was able to treat my grandma to a cruise because of it. I was at work at 2am in the morning and it appeared. :) THIS WAS 8 YEARS AGO AND THINGS HAVE CHANGED.

[firefly333]

What cabin category?

 

Inside gty. I fully expect the worst cabin but I dont care. The other that I paid $1300 for two people is for a D8, the lowest oceanview balcony.

 

Actually even on the publically advertised rates, tuesday sales have had Oasis down to $399 pp.

[idraconis]

Booked last month for a May 30th 8 day cruise out of NYC on the Carnival Miracle. Balcony $849. It's presently $949. I think that's a bargain. The best buy ever on any cruise was 2 liters of Stoli for $22 and yes it seemed to taste better at that price.
