suec12 Posted November 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 12, 2014 So many deals and promos my head hurts :) - for a new booking, verandah. Elite CC, what perks are added? Two of the 1,2,3? and a 2 category upgrade? That's what I'm thinking - anyone found a better deal? (This is booking with Celebrity) I know a TA might throw in extra OBC. Thanks!

Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted November 12, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 12, 2014 Let's see if I can keep it straight (I have confused myself several times trying to make this same decision): • Inside to Veranda - you get to choose 2 out of 3 of the 1-2-3go! benefits (plus Captain's Club seems to get a one category upgrade and 1/2 deposit) • Concierge and above - 1-2-3-go! All-Inclusive gives you all 3 benefits (and upgrade/desposit as above) • Sky Suite and above - 1-2-3-go! All-Inclusive gives you all 3 benefits (but no upgrade for Captain's Club) plus you should get Free Companion Airfare [PSU got it, but I was initially denied and have turned to my TA for another go] See this thread re the Airfare offer: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2126077 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suntan Posted November 12, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 12, 2014 This is very helpful because I was confused as to what the benefits were to booking early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Host Jazzbeau Posted November 12, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 12, 2014 This is very helpful because I was confused as to what the benefits were to booking early. The big benefits to booking early are that you get to pick from all the cabins on the ship, you are guaranteed the launch fare if prices rise (which has been my experience on all Celebrity cruises so far), and you can get a reduced fare if prices go down before final payment.

stipmom Posted November 13, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Are you sure it is inside to veranda that allows you to choose two out of the three and not outside and above like the usual 123 go offers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right. Oceanview and up only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morbihan Posted November 13, 2014 #8 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Can you tell me why us in Europe only get two out of the three offers? Looking at the prices in the USA compared to Europe we already pay more for the cruise. Mainly, I must admit, to all the 'bargain' travel agents. We booked Aqua class ang got the drinks package and gratuities and OBC. Well pleased after receiving nothing from our TA when we booked our first cruise. We know better now! Thank you Cruise Critic. All I need now is the courage to book through a 'bargain' TA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morbihan Posted November 13, 2014 #10 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Sorry about that. The OBC was a thank you for booking on board. We originally requested the OBC for the new booking as well as the gratuities. Once we saw our bar bill, however, we changed to the free beverage package. I have been looking at the 2016 cruises and all the wonderful offers. Impossible to access the cruise details on Celebrity so there is a change. I did see some details on the eskimo house site so when I have tinternet will be perusing. I shall be taking notes before my next booking as we seem to be missing out on free stuff that is available if you are in the know. Thrilled that we have these offers though after nowt. I am planning on asking my TA if they would give us anything too the next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
