Mindy97 Posted May 21, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Its already opened, and a lot of it is gone. Online I don't see prices, but my TZ booked it for me over an hour ago. At that time she said almost all the inside cabins were gone. Not that I wanted one. I figure YOLO, so I got a Suite. Yes! M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamloops50 Posted May 21, 2015 #5 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I can't see Panama canal cruises going down very soon. With the new canal the cruise lines have been told that costs are going to go up on a per berth . Prices for Ft Lauderdale to Vancouver BC in April 2017 is up about $1000 per person compared to 2016 for the same cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Ahoy Posted May 21, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Our TA able to book us a balcony cabin on RT PANAMA Canal trip on Caribe deck first thing this morning. Fare is about $2,500 per person or about $132 per day. Looks like good price. Did this trip in 2008 and loved it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you did, you got a super deal on a balcony for $2,500 pp. I see balcony's being priced starting at $3299 on the Princess website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassyredhat Posted May 22, 2015 #9 Share Posted May 22, 2015 I was looking for a short west coast/Baja one for fall 2016 to fill in between Hawaii and Alaska. The one I wanted, 2 days in Cabo is only offered once in Dec. What happened to the ones we took last year. Please, I don't want to go back to CCL for the short cruises. I even looked at NCL, since the one we took in March was awesome. Nothing. :( Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really don't know if that price included the port charges and taxes. If not that could add another $390 to the price. And what location?

Astro Flyer Posted May 22, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) We really don't know if that price included the port charges and taxes. If not that could add another $390 to the price. And what location? When I checked last night the price including taxes and port fees on the Princess website began at $2700 for an inside and $4300 for a minisuite.

Yep and you can figure a TA will discount maybe $200 or $300 off of that price more or less depending on what OBC they are giving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOW seriously that much?? Mine doesnt discount that much...are you using an internet agent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltd Posted May 23, 2015 #14 Share Posted May 23, 2015 WOW seriously that much?? Mine doesnt discount that much...are you using an internet agent? Yes and remember that it depends on the amount of the cruise. Certainly not going to discount that much on a 7 day but if you are looking at a 19 day in a mini suite then yes.

I looked later in the day and saw that this cabin category was going for over $3,300. Our TA booked within a hour of the booking opened. Not sure how we got it for such a great price, but very happy.

I thought that also, but then I called Princess back to see why they were now showing the prices higher than what I was locked in for & she said we had a casino promotion pricing. Has anyone ever heard of this??????, we never received a letter the Princess rep said we should have received regarding this. I would appreciate any info any of you know about this, Grace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would appreciate any info any of you know about this, Grace I recently received an email about casino promotion pricing. It is up to 25% for Alaska, Japan, and Europe cruises and up to 35% for Caribbean, Mexico and other cruises. A balcony savings is 25% for the Panama Canal cruises. The discount for cruises from 3 to 20 days. I didn't realize it was for cruises in 2016. The email was silent about time frames. I also heard that it was only so many cabins per cruises. and you have to book the cruise this year, but the email didn't give many particulars. I heard that Princess knows when to apply the discount so I guess they gave that price to my TA and that it why I have such a great discount.

Thank you Trish, I just talked to Princess rep. she said the notice was e-mailed, not regular mailed, which I still never got. She said the promo started on May 18 & that it is for bookings made until December 31 2015, space available. The deposit is refundable. And if refared, like for a new perk Princess is giving in the future, we don't lose the casino discount. She said it is combinable. So far it has worked for the Panama canal cruise on 11-16-16 & Hawaii 3-13-17 both R/T from LA. We book full suites, so it was a pretty good discount. I wonder why there is not more talk about this on the CC boards. I guess like us, people don't know about it, until you go to book something, especially since like us, not getting the e-mail yet or at all. Or maybe for So. Cal. residents only, whatever it is great, but not getting much off when pricing with TAs . Thanks again, Grace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
