JaxGuy Posted April 23, 2013 #1 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Sorry if this has been answered, I couldn't find it. Does CCL honor OBC offers on the ES price match or just the base fare? Got a price drop last week. This morning the rate is the same but now they are offering a $50 OBC. I've applied, just wondering if anyone knows for sure.

CruisinSunBunny Posted April 23, 2013 #3 Share Posted April 23, 2013 How much did you get, and did you get the credit from applying or calling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibble Posted April 23, 2013 #4 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Finally got in to the office and called them. YES, they do! I was just about to ask this! My fare is the same but OBC is being offered. I submitted the request, and just spelled it out in the comments. Thanks for calling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swt910hrt Posted April 23, 2013 #5 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I'd like to know as well, I noticed last night they were having a 'sale' but then noticed the prices were the same as they've been since last week. It was also 2 in the morning so I didn't do much investigating... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaxGuy Posted April 23, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I submitted online but had a question about something else so I called them. She went ahead and took care of it after I mentioned applying for the credit earlier this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swt910hrt Posted April 23, 2013 #8 Share Posted April 23, 2013 $50 OBC in addition to the $80 price drop last week Excellent, I hope it goes through on the form as I have an absurd fear of calling people :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deedle7544 Posted April 23, 2013 #10 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Excellent, I hope it goes through on the form as I have an absurd fear of calling people :) I'm with you, I hate calling people. Submitted the form for 3 out of 4 cruises, funny on one the rate was $80 higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSkinner Posted April 23, 2013 #11 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I know I have read on here before but where do you see what you are booked at? I usually book early saver but with all these new rates I am not sure. The rates showing are the same I paid and I have looked all over the documents to see how I booked. Please help! If we are outside of the final payment can I change to early saver that is being offered now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All4fun&fun4all Posted April 23, 2013 #12 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I submitted my form this morning with the same scenario as yours. Price didn't drop but that OBC offer is there. Waiting with fingers crossed to see if we get it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bridgetjonesni Posted April 23, 2013 #14 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I've submitted forms for our two staterooms in December and explained in the notes about the $50 OBC as well. Fingers crossed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSkinner Posted April 23, 2013 #15 Share Posted April 23, 2013 It should be in "Guest Notes" on page 2 of your CabinConfirmation email. thanks for the answer. I found it. Mine says Past Guest no change fees. Does this mean I can change from Past Guest to Early Saver without a charge? Or am I SOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky2 Posted April 23, 2013 #16 Share Posted April 23, 2013 thanks for the answer. I found it. Mine says Past Guest no change fees. Does this mean I can change from Past Guest to Early Saver without a charge? Or am I SOL I think you can change to Early Saver without a charge as long as the rate is the same.

Tickled Tink Posted April 23, 2013 #17 Share Posted April 23, 2013 We booked an early saver fare this past Saturday for the Breeze in October. On Monday we noticed the past guest rate was $20 less so we got the price adjustment. Now the past guest rate is still less than early saver, but do you think we'd qualify for the OBC by just having the early saver rate? I suppose we could always go back to the current early saver price and still be $30 ahead with the OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can price match to other rates, but your Early Saver status (& restrictions) does not change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmysgrl Posted April 23, 2013 #19 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I was booked on a past guest rate but just had my TA change it to the ES rate. It is $10 higher in fare but I will be getting $50 in OBC! :D Plus now have the opportunity for price drops as my cruise gets closer! Fingers crossed ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deedle7544 Posted April 23, 2013 #21 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I just changed a friend's booking to this sale, she saved $240 and got the $50 credit. I think someone owes me a DoD... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robkatcruisers Posted April 23, 2013 #22 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I booked ES rate for our upcoming November sailing but have seen absolutely no price drops whatsoever and I try to look daily. The early saver fall sale rate is higher than I paid but I just minutes ago put in for the 50.00 OBC because of this thread. So much thanks you all!

sailawaykaye Posted April 23, 2013 #23 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I noticed the Early Saver Fall Sale promotion late last night. Did a mock booking under my cabin category and saw an OBC amount for $25. Sent in a price protection form......& this morning Carnival sent me a new statement w/ the OBC listed on it. I am booked on a B2B on the Triumph in December. I received the OBC for both legs of our cruise. The promotion is good for all sailings September 1st thru the end of December. You need to act fast! If I am correct.... The Early Saver Fall Sale promotion ends on April 25th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshhawk Posted April 23, 2013 #24 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I haven't finished paying off the cruise-do you think that would affect getting the OBC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All4fun&fun4all Posted April 23, 2013 #25 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I just called in to the 800 number because my PVP was out today. They were able to add the $25.00 directly to my booking. $12.50 for each of us! Hooray drink of the day. The lady I spoke with said that sometimes if they aren't really backed up then they can add the credit right away when we call in. Other times they ask you to submit the form if they are backed up. So my advice is to call in to the 800 number and just ask. I know I am a happy girl!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
