Minor Pet Peev re: new 123GO promos

[ORV]

I have just got all 3 when booking on the cruise for a future cruise. I have booked another Alaskan Cruise on the Infinity for next year. I paid a low deposit (£89) for a Concierge Class cabin and got $150 obc on the cruise I was already on plus $350 obc for the cruise I just booked, plus a Classic drinks package plus gratuities included.

 

If I change my mind about the cruise I can move the booking to another one without any penalty (even though I am in the UK) apparently the policy changed on that about a year ago.

 

I'm happy!:)

 

It's the fact that you booked a Concierge Class that got you all three, not that you booked on board. You would have got 1 (2 for Europe & some special ones) by booking on board if you had booked an Oceanview or regular balcony.

 

Consequently you(or anyone else) could get all 3 perks by booking a Concierge room or higher, through a TA or through Celebrity right now.

Not true. With the current 123Go, you get 1 Perk only, unless booking a European cruise, and then it's only 2 perks.

 

The now expired 123GO All Inclusive included 3 perks. ;)

Not to be argumentative but go do a dummy booking for Infinity Alaska for CC in 2016 and look at the special offer once you're into the booking.

 

Definitely all 3.

That's interesting! I did a dummy booking on Celebrity yesterday and came up with only 2 for a European cruise in an AQ. Called Captains Club to see about getting a price drop and was told that I would lose one of my 3 perks because the current 123Go was only good for 1 perk unless traveling to Europe, in which case was 2.

Special Promotions

• 123Go! - Chose 1 of 3 Offers, Book Europe & Choose 2!

Beverage Pkg, Gratuities, or Onboard Credit

 

* Sorry... Just saw the dates you listed. Must be a separate Promo. So it depends on when someone is cruising. My cruise is this October. ;)

Yes, these promotions do get tricky, and the one I referenced is not being pushed anywhere. It's not listed under Celebrity's Special Deals on their home page.

 

Deeliteful's cruise falls under the guidelines though for qualifying for it, hence that's why she got all 3.

No kidding! I cannot find that Promo listed anywhere. I already have the Promo for cruises in 2016 and 2017. Thought the deal was over though. :)
