Cinedan Posted July 11, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 11, 2013 It pays to check your already booked cruise for price reductions! Due to a resident rate special, my cruise price dropped $160.00 today! Awesome! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustardgirl Posted July 11, 2013 #2 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Wow that's awesome... according to fareviewer... my past guest rate went up $1700 :eek: wish it had went down that much!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afcruiser Posted July 11, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I keep checkin ours. But our Military rate and past guest hasn't had a price drop yet. We've had em in the past so congrats to you. Enjoy free drinks or Bingo or Casino money>>> Whatever your heart desires. Keep checkin. We will. Had 3 on our last cruise. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinedan Posted July 11, 2013 Author #4 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Wow that's awesome... according to fareviewer... my past guest rate went up $1700 :eek: wish it had went down that much!! That is totally ridiculous! You are going to LOVE the Breeze! I sailed on her last January! The only reason I'm not sailing on the Breeze next Jan is because I really like the itinerary on the Freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadiangal40 Posted July 11, 2013 #5 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Wow that's awesome... according to fareviewer... my past guest rate went up $1700 :eek: wish it had went down that much!! That's quite a jump in price :eek: Too bad it didn't go down that much! Has to be another glitch with Carnival's site. Also can't get on to book any excursions for the last 3 days. Bon Voyage is working but excursions aren't. Very Frustrating :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19031 Posted July 11, 2013 #6 Share Posted July 11, 2013 My Jan sailing on the Breeze has gone down about $120 in the past couple weeks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrislc Posted July 11, 2013 #7 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Mine hasn't changed for the OV I booked; however, I was able to move to a cove balcony for less than $200; previously, the difference was $500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pellaz Posted July 11, 2013 #8 Share Posted July 11, 2013 My October cruise on Victory decreased by $120. I couldn't believe my eyes. Got the email confirming the price drop (I'm not paid in full yet) a few hours ago! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrowe70 Posted July 11, 2013 #9 Share Posted July 11, 2013 We're in a category 9b which doesn't seem to be listed in the fare viewer???? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jodidr1 Posted July 11, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 11, 2013 My rate went down over $400 for my cruise! Sent using the Cruise Critic forums app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzn buckeye Posted July 11, 2013 #11 Share Posted July 11, 2013 My Victory balcony stayed the same. End of Sept., actually went up because past guest rate has disappeared. There is a resident rate that is the same as what we have paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billys mom Posted July 11, 2013 #13 Share Posted July 11, 2013 do I need to keep checking for price reductions or will I be notified by the cruise line when they go down? I know it is over a year away but it would be nice for it to go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it is over a year away but it would be nice for it to go down. You need to check for yourself. The cruise line will NOT notify you. My Oct cruise has dropped $200 since I booked it!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaMilkman Posted July 11, 2013 #16 Share Posted July 11, 2013 After multiple price drops about a month ago our prices haven't budged (up or down) since then. It's a Christmas cruise so I expect it to sell out. Consequently I doubt too many additional price drops coming our way :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebBrown Posted July 11, 2013 #17 Share Posted July 11, 2013 We're in a category 9b which doesn't seem to be listed in the fare viewer???? :confused: It may be that that particular category is sold out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jodidr1 Posted July 11, 2013 #18 Share Posted July 11, 2013 If your category sells out, the price stays the same? Just curious how it works since the base price changes for like an interior, balcony, suite and then you choose to upgrade to another floor or whatever. Shouldn't you still get the price drop if the base price for a balcony changed? The upgrade doesn't change obviously... Sorry if my question is confusing.

chris.b.74 Posted July 11, 2013 #19 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Seeing as how my cruise is March 10, 2014 which is spring break I don't expect mine to drop at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maurinsky2 Posted July 11, 2013 #20 Share Posted July 11, 2013 My cruise is next April, so maybe drops will come as we enter the fall and winter. Or maybe not. So far, every time I check, it's the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tncap Posted July 11, 2013 #21 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Mine dropped $160 for the Breeze in February today as well. TN resident rate. I did have to pay the full deposit amount which was an additional $300 but it was going to have to be paid eventually anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disfan13 Posted July 11, 2013 #22 Share Posted July 11, 2013 No drop for the casino rate - but they did drop a few hundred over the past month - enough for me to book an OS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pungo3 Posted July 11, 2013 #23 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Congratulations on your price drops. I check mine every day, but no drops yet. However, I booked them when the rates had already dropped tremendously. But I'll keep checking......love that OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noleguy84 Posted July 11, 2013 #25 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Thank you so much for this. I'm calling Carnival on my lunch break to upgrade from Riviera to Upper on the Freedom in September. We'll also have $20 obc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
