michigancruiser0715 Posted February 26, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I don't know if this is the norm nowadays, but I'm so blown away, I had to post this! I submitted my price protection form at 7:14 PM - today - and got an email approval at 7:17 PM. SERIOUSLY?! I've submitted many price protection forms to Carnival and they have ranged anywhere from 2 to 10 (impatiently awaited) days. But, 3 minutes? lol Sorry, I'm easily amused. And I just saved a ton of money - win/win. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedy55 Posted February 26, 2015 #8 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Where are you going that's getting price drops and how far out? We have an Alaska trip in June and our category has sold out. Also have a Eastern Caribbean in March 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michigancruiser0715 Posted February 26, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Where are you going that's getting price drops and how far out? We have an Alaska trip in June and our category has sold out. Also have a Eastern Caribbean in March 2016. I go on Carnival's site daily to check. People have different methods, but I think doing a mock booking is the most accurate way - then you can take a screen shot just in case there are any discrepancies. I always leave the booking page open on my phone's Internet browser; I can refresh the page at my leisure and basically know instantly if there is a drop in price. If your category is sold out, you may be out of luck (unless there is a comparable category - which does happen sometimes). You can't get a price reduction if there is no category to compare it to. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank12 Posted February 26, 2015 #10 Share Posted February 26, 2015 It used to take days. They must be getting better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini Mom Posted February 27, 2015 #11 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Just applied for another price drop. Only $20 off because of the Go Sale, but money is money. :) I wish I could use the BL category for my 8C. That would really help ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
