OBC Amount for booking onboard

[jerseygirl3]

Anybody know what the amount of OBC one receives for booking an inside cabin for a 14 night sailing?

 

Is the amount of OBC more for an oceanview or balcony?

Thank you so much. We're thinking of booking an inside (Yikes!!!) for the first time and wondered if it was worth waiting until October when we're onboard the Silhouette TA. Since the OBC is $200, I think we'll wait. I doubt the price will go up that much before then.

I booked last year 12 night Med cruise for June 2015 in Aqua while on a cruise and got to pick 2 of 123go and $300 OBC. Booked last week 12 night Europe/Med cruise for Sept 2016 in Aqua and got all 3 of 123go and $200 OBC.

Booked 16 day TA veranda onboard and only got 100 obc.No other

perks. My TA got me a 500 savings for same category, 240 obc.

So you never know.

Is the 14 day cruise that you want to book another TA?

No. We're already booked on the 10/31/15 Silhouete TA and the November 2016 Reflection TA. We're looking at the 2/19/17 Eclipse 14 night Caribbean.

Book it as a hedge. When on board if it is advantageous cancel and rebook. You will lose nothing unless your TA charges a fee for any changes or cancellations. And I would avoid one that does. It is also advantageous to shop around for a TA as some pay your gratuites for some cabin classes. I have found that many times paying $10 more for a cabin will result in the gratuities and SBC. Doesn't make sense but what does?

 

happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌞

We booked that one! We did the Eclipse last month and loved it so much that we're doing it again.
