Retired LEO Posted June 1, 2015 #26 Share Posted June 1, 2015 We will be on Grandeur June 17 and have 3 cruises to book while on board. Just priced them under the pre-June 1 fares. Will check them tomorrow to check the differences.Rick and Deirdra Same here. I'll be checking 7 of my future bookings to see how much they're jacked up between today and tomorrow.

karmacats Posted June 1, 2015 #27 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Same here. I'll be checking 7 of my future bookings to see how much they're jacked up between today and tomorrow. It's ten minutes after midnight here, and the sale is up on the royal website, so i just checked my upcoming liberty (aug 2015) and independence (feb 2016) cruises. (my other two are on anthem and harmony, which weren't listed as options on the sale page.) liberty is down $100 from when i booked during the BOGOHO sale last Nov., but i have a $200 OBC that i'd lose if i switched so it's not worth it, as i'd be down a net amount of $100. indy is down $50 from BOGOHO - i just booked that one a couple of months ago. i might call tomorrow to see if they'll lower mine, if the price stays the same overnight.

united4life Posted June 1, 2015 #28 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Yep prices are the same or more for the Oasis in Oct and Nov 2016. I knew this "sale" was too good to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retired LEO Posted June 1, 2015 #29 Share Posted June 1, 2015 2 of mine went down a couple of dollars. The rest all went up right at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigB0882 Posted June 1, 2015 #30 Share Posted June 1, 2015 It appears my Baltic cruise has gone up with this sale. Was hoping for a price drop but I guess it is better I booked when I did than waited. I think it is because BOGOHO was essentially a 25% discount but it appears the discount for oceanview is only 20% with this sale, so that explains the price going up. I may do more research and look into upgrading to a balcony with this sale as that gets the full 30% but those numbers didn't look any lower, either.

Funbobby68 Posted June 1, 2015 #31 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Put a hold on a cruise before the sale tonight , after the sale price increase is 600.00 plus dollars Canadian for 4 sharing outside on liberty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted June 1, 2015 #32 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Harmony prices are down the full 30%. Her prices were not inflated to cover the BOGO and they did not raise them....at least yet. Just saved $1920.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoyMouse Posted June 1, 2015 #33 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The 2016 Caribbean cruise I had my eye on now has a Superior balcony on deck 9 for $48 more than an inside on deck 2. I've already emailed my TA! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaPalms Posted June 1, 2015 #34 Share Posted June 1, 2015 30/30 Yuck! :( I did notice that none of my base rates went up - they were all still at yesterday's BOGO inflated rate. But the 30% off on 1st & 2nd came to less than the 50% off because yesterday's prices included the May BOGO discounts of $200 for suite, $100 for balcony and $50 OV and under. My Navigator category (a good deal made even better with $100pp OBC) has been sold out so nothing there of course. My Indy JS went up $519, mostly from loss of 3rd/4th half off, and the 3 others I was looking at or had holds on all went up a few dollars because of the loss of the May discount. Can't wait to see what next month's "sale" is. :rolleyes: I would love there to be "no sale", just straight forward pricing, but I won't hold my breath. ~ Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruise Junky Posted June 1, 2015 #35 Share Posted June 1, 2015 My voyager cruise for 2017 seems to be down a bit. Will call in the am to see if they'll reprice it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek94305 Posted June 1, 2015 #36 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Prices for Serenade's OV Nov 2015 base fare went from $1671 to $1750 per person from when I booked in April. In May there was a small bump in between but the rates with the 30/30 sale are still higher than our BOGOHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tagsalong Posted June 1, 2015 #37 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) Just checked our Oasis Nov 2016 cruise we have on hold from yesterday and discovered that the new sale is screwing around with our balcony discount. Apparently, one will only get 70% of the balcony discount with the 30/30 promotion. I did the math and found out that they take the $250 D+BD off the launch fare and then apply the 30% discount, thereby reducing the BD by 30%. Put another way, if we do not "sign in" and get the price of the Oasis CP Balcony at $1801.80 and then apply the $250 BD, the price should be $1551.80. However, if we do sign in and then price out the same cruise, the price is calculated by RCI at $1626.80. They've reduced the balcony discount to $175, or 70% of the $250. BTW, yesterdays price was $1591 with the BOGOHO campaign. Somewhat smallish differences, but it screams of another take-back from our loyalty perks.

Bronx12 Posted June 1, 2015 #40 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The 2 cruises I had my eye on have both gone up by $250 for final price, not much of a sale, then add increased gratuities to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked into this as well - hoping to cruise on Harmony. Same issue - balcony discount is diminished. I guess we will stay with what I've booked.

Russ Lomas Posted June 1, 2015 #43 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Booked our March 2017 Freedom cruise for $500 per person for 7 days with the original BOGOHO sale. The adjusted rates when RCCL changed them for the rest of the BOGOHO sale put that price up to $1300 per person. Under the new 30/30 sale price is up yet again to over $1600 per person, more than triple what we booked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted June 1, 2015 #45 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Prices on our Freedom cruise went up 21% right around midnight. Any that we had that were insides or OV's went up as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted June 1, 2015 #46 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Any that we had that were insides or OV's went up as well. That's true, I forgot to mention that the JS I was watching went down a bit, but is still priced $1000pp higher than when we booked when BOGOHO was not a farce.

JimLahey Posted June 1, 2015 #47 Share Posted June 1, 2015 The Allure cruise I was looking at is significantly more than it was yesterday, primarily because we have a 3rd person who has no discount! We have 6 people going. It is $1493 cheaper to get 3 rooms with 2 people each than it is to get 2 rooms with 3 each! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuCruise Posted June 1, 2015 #48 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) OMG...my cruise increased by $1500. What kind of sale is that??? :eek: And that's for an interior promenade room (but all staterooms went up significally). PS - Or am I missing some code to enter.

My Nov Oasis base fare went up $200PP, and no OBC, so my net "sale" price is $400 more than when I booked. Great sale!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
