Is there a Balcony discount for C&A Emerald Member

[lauren0309]

I'm looking to book my next cruise. If I book a balcony, is there a discount for C&A Emerald members? There used to be coupons online but since they don't have them anymore, just wondering.

I don't believe so, think that starts at Platinum and gets bigger with Diamond.

I'm higher than Platinum, I'm Emerald.

Yes there is. I don't have the exact numbers off the top of my head.

I always screw that up...

 

I only started taking notice of the balcony discounts when I hit Diamond.

So since I can only get the discount while onboard I guess I missed my chance. Just got off a cruise 2 weeks ago. I guess I should have booked it then but I wasn't sure yet where I wanted to go :(

You can get the C&A balcony discount whenever you book. You are confusing that with the on board booking discount.

Balcony discount is $125 off.

[lauren0309]

Ok. Yay!

Login to RC site and do a mock booking, it will show the discount in summary of charges.

Should be $125.

Balcony may or may not be combinable with the various sales going on though.

I'm Emerald as well.

 

Balcony discount is $125

The discount is not combinable with some OBC offers (like WOW sales, etc). You take whichever one is higher.

 

It is combinable with past passenger rates. You mentioned the old c&A coupons that used to be online (provided a discount on the overall cruise rate based upon cabin category). Now, that pricing is reflected when you log in online and search for a cruise. When you get to the end where the price is, you can click on a hyper link that breaks down the pricing. Sometimes there will be an additional discount listed, and that discount (among other things) is the replacement of the certificate. Just like the certificates, it's only on a limited amount of sailings.

 

It has been harder to tell what you are receiving from C&A loyalty vs. the many different sales they have going on.

Balcony discount varies by length of cruise. Also subtract $25 from these discounts if booked within 6 months of sail date.

 

 

 

Emerald Balcony Discount When Booking More than 6 Months from Sailing Date:

$ 75 * for sailings of 3-5 nights

$125* for sailings of 6-9 nights

$225* for sailings of 10-14 nights

$225* for sailings of 15+ nights

I just booked for April of 16. Being we are platinum we got 100.00 discount. I would say that emerald would probably be 125.00.
