bksjes1998 Posted October 29, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 29, 2012 have checked fairviewer on Carnival's site most days for 3 months with no change in price. Was actually surprised when I checked this morning and saw a $40 drop (category 6C). Just filed my claim. I'm surprised and excited and had to share. Maybe you can check and find your cruise price has dropped also. We will be cruising in April 2013. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa65 Posted October 29, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Isn't that a great feeling? No matter if it's a little or a lot, getting a price drop always puts you in a great mood. Congratulations and keep watching!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xostacylee Posted October 29, 2012 #4 Share Posted October 29, 2012 So I'm assuming the totals they pull up are before taxes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bksjes1998 Posted October 29, 2012 Author #6 Share Posted October 29, 2012 yes that is the price based on fare before taxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disney180 Posted October 29, 2012 #8 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I got my first one last week too and was super happy. Question, can you still get price drops even after you have made the final payment? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footballbabe3 Posted October 29, 2012 #10 Share Posted October 29, 2012 LOL I know that is so funny. I was the same way. I have only ever had one and it was for a total of 20.00. You would have thought it was 100.00 as excited as I was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disney180 Posted October 29, 2012 #11 Share Posted October 29, 2012 If you booked Early Saver you can. I got the military rate as it was cheaper then Early Saver so not sure if that would still count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaming90 Posted October 29, 2012 #14 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I remember my first price drop - such a great feeling :) Me too, unfortunately no cruises in the near future planned but still love to think about them!! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kokoko Posted October 29, 2012 #15 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I got the military rate as it was cheaper then Early Saver so not sure if that would still count. I would call them. I once called them the same day of the cruise they didn't give a obc but let me change rooms went from a regular balcony to a 9b premium balcony with the wrap around deck. It is called luck you never know til you ask if they say no ask for a free upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
River_Rat Posted October 29, 2012 #16 Share Posted October 29, 2012 My Husband and I did a Honeymoon cruise in 2010 and we ended up with $400 on board credit to use, with all the price drops I caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2kids1dog Posted November 1, 2012 #19 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I just put in for our fourth one. So far we have $385 in OBC and the price had dropped another $40 - so we'll be over the $400 mark. I'm a little nutty though and check three times a day. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NS-Cruiser Posted November 2, 2012 #20 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I looked a Fare Viewer earlier this evening and got really excited!!!! OV Cabins are listed for 100.00 less (total) than what we paid for our Freedom cruise next April.... but then noticed that it was for 6A cabins, and we are booked into a 6B in the aft....All the other 6B cabins appear to be sold out! I could upgrade to a 6C for what we paid, but then I'd be moving from the aft to midship, on the same floor... and that's something I don't want to do. Now if a balcony became avialable for the same price we could talk.... for now though, I guess I'll keep checking many times a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pom Lover Posted November 2, 2012 #21 Share Posted November 2, 2012 We have always booked Early Saver and in the past only received one price drop so I wasn't expecting much on the 4 cruises we have booked. Boy was I wrong. So far we have received 5 price drops on one of our Breeze sailings and I just submitted our third price drop on one of our Liberty sailings. Now that we are so close I try to check at least twice a day for a drop. i am loving all of this OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swmo Posted November 2, 2012 #22 Share Posted November 2, 2012 I know this may sound like a dumb question but can someone please explain how a price drop works and what you have to do to claim it? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
