dkjretired Posted November 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Here's the press release for the 1-2-3 promotion starting Friday. Interesting is that you get extra Club Points for booking during the time period above and beyond your cruise. Might solve some minor problems for those already booked and close to a status change. http://www.rclinvestor.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=103045&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1880530&highlight= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickT Posted November 27, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 27, 2013 If I'm reading the release correctly the promo will be on until the end of February, guess this will become the new norm for pricing/promos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drarill Posted November 27, 2013 #4 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Thanks for sharing the link, we just booked the Reflection for next summer. The 15% off was a better offer for us. :):) but some of our friends were waiting for the 1,2,3 promo to book the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upwarduk Posted November 27, 2013 #5 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Hopefully this thread won't be pulled as it was over a week ago. I notice those of us in UK won't be able to book the Caribbean sailings on Cyber Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears they are for Caribbean sailings up to the end of January only, and for US & Canadian residents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One_plus_one Posted November 28, 2013 #9 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I've noticed that the Europe cruises are included in the promotion. Would anyone know if this deal is available to Australians as well? (Celebrity currently has another promotion on with the Solstice on Au website.) Will the details only appear on the Celebrity US website after midnight on Friday? Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamthesea Posted November 28, 2013 #11 Share Posted November 28, 2013 I wonder if they will let those of us that already have a cruise booked, add these incentives on like they have done in the past. I realize that one would have to pay the going rate. We have 3 cruises booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roothy123 Posted November 28, 2013 #12 Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) I just booked a 7 night cruise with oceanview (deposit, not final payment) last Saturday, and the price has now jumped by $186 for the 2 of us. (They give, and then they take away!!) I'm assuming I would have to rebook as they're requiring a "new" booking. For me, rebooking something that is going to cost $186 doesn't make much sense, as the onboard credit would be $200, the gratuities $168, and the drink package would be lightly used in our case. For an extra $14, I don't think I'll even bother re-booking, but for those in a different situation, I'm happy for you!

It's a good job there are other Agents out there on the ball! I couldn't even find anything about it on the UK X website! Wonder if the staff in the UK will have a clue about it if you call to book!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare welshfamily Posted November 29, 2013 #17 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I too have had the email from a TA. I am comparing prices. All that has happened so far is the cruises I am watching have risen in price. Firstly the 10% or 15% went back on. Then yesterday all 3 cruises went up by almost £150. This morning no offers on either, could be that it's still night at head office but nothing on the website here in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare uktog Posted November 29, 2013 #19 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Just wondering, if I cancel and rebook (assuming the price was favourable) would I get the one level upgrade that now includes AQ for my Captains Club level (so book an A2 and get the A1 I had still) (Technically the pricing is favourable if I do this so just wondering) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare welshfamily Posted November 29, 2013 #20 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Uktog, I would be interested to know if you do get the free upgrade. Has anyone else received it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordoncruickshank Posted November 29, 2013 #23 Share Posted November 29, 2013 Uktog,I would be interested to know if you do get the free upgrade. Has anyone else received it yet. The quotes I received yesterday were on the basis of an A2 for an A1 with the drinks package. I am still waiting to hear from TA that they have booked the cruises. What I was getting an issue with was for them to treat the 2 cruises I want to book (which have 1 day between them) as a B2b and pay for the hotel and transfers. They are doing this for me in Feb/Mar 2014. I'll get the cruises booked and then fight with someone for that. I'll post if I hear from TA Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering how different (if at all) this offer was from the one that someone else was posting about, and if so, if it's for all residents or just certain continents/countries!
