Hi all,

 

I picked up a bargain today on Carnival Spirit in their 72 hour sale.

27 May - 9 nights Ex Syd Balcony Guarantee for under $800.00pp twin

 

Amazing value. Not travelled Carnival previously, but at that price I couldn't pass it up.

 

Good time of year, with cyclone season over, and not too short. Enjoy your balcony!

For anyone on the 1st April RCL cruise from Freo to Singapore currently the drink packages bookable on the RCL website are very good value for some unknown reason. (if someone could explain it that would be great)

 

52aud for the ultimate package (pretty much all booze)

13aud for the royal replenish (coffees, fresh juices, mock-tails, water etc)

 

Recent RCL price increase of drinks, current AUD exchange rate, number of at sea days, a free bottle of quality bubbles thrown in for ultimate and the worry free life at sea with a package means unless you were planning on not paying for any beverage at all odds are you will be better off with jumping on the current rates.

 

Not sure if this is appropriate for this thread, but for anyone that is not reading the rollcall thread hopefully this may be of service.

Good info. Totally right for this thread I think. :)

Sometimes it is better to not have the 55 ticked, and if we log on as a loyalty C&A member we don't always see the obc offered as well. Some things are not combined, so keep trying different things. I haven't tried this trip, but I have also seen where special prices disappear quickly, but then come back after about the 24 hr hold time expires. Might be worth coming back for a look?

Yvonne ive just done a dummy run and its back on the site make sure you put your crown and anchor number in and go right the way through to end and that should do it for you:D
