Huge price drop!

[linkerbink]

Just for the heck of it, I checked my 2016 Greek island cruise to see if there were any price drops. Wow! Big difference! I called my travel agent right away, and she confirmed that I got a $2000 drop...sweet! So my balance due went from $2400 to $300. I've had price drops before, but nothing that big. It pays to check.👏

Actually your cruise is about the same price now as ours

Nice! The cruise prices are reasonable, it's the airfare that's crazy expensive.

[Mauriesmileco]

What if you have paid the cruise up front do you still get some money back or some onboard credit?

[welldone60]

With that savings time to book another cruise. :)

Hi we are first time cruisers and booked ours three weeks before they introduced buy one get one half price I rang my travel agent but they said rci don't do price promises so I would lose my deposit of £400 and have to book a new cruise with no guarantee of getting the same cabin 😭😭😭

Greek Islands perhaps not the ideal destination given recent developments with migration from Syria etc

Might end up as a Cruise to Nowhere:eek::(

Several lines stopped port calls last week in Turkey. Hope all calms down before you go.

OH MY GOSH.

 

My best friend is doing this sailing for her honeymoon, and now calling about the >$1000 price difference. I shot her a note as soon as I saw this... thank you SO MUCH for posting!

I know, but the cruise is a year away so they (we) have time to see what develops.

I hope your friend gets a drop too. We had a junior suite booked. I don't know if there was a drop for any other category and if so, how much.

She just contacted her TA and they are looking in to an upgrade option for her- she originally had a balcony on a side 'hump' area that had a huge price drop, but is now looking at an aft JS... which is now basically the same price as the balcony room she originally booked. I'd say it looks like it's working out well. :cool:

Checked our sailing and our room went up by $4,497 - YIKES

Great news! I'm glad I posted about the drop.

YIKES is right! There's no predicting Royal's pricing "system".

[John&LaLa]

Balconies pretty much the same price as insides if you factor in Diamond+ discount on our sailing

To the OP: Congrats! :D *does happy dance*
