Nice prices on Liberty 1/2017

[sugcarol]

Low prices on RCCL website for January 2017 on Liberty. Balcony cabins get 300.00 OBC as well as reduced BOGO. They did not jack up the price for BOGO. Says deposit is 500.00 for 2 but if you call they will allow a deposit of 250.00.]

I dont see low price? Example?

[Morecruisesplz]

I looked but did not see any bargains in January or February.

[sugcarol]

1/22/17-category E2 1780.86 for 2 plus 300.00 OBC. Can't have Diamond balcony discount but that's ok, 300.00 OBC is worth more than that discount. This is cheaper than what were are paying for Liberty next month. Booked 2016 cruise Spring 2015 and prices have steadily gone up.

1780 for a Balcony 5 Nights is a terrible deal. A good deal would be a GS or JS for $1,780 (5 Nights).

Liberty is doing 7 night cruises then. Still not a great deal...average at best especially for Galveston.

 

Look for something under $100 per night pp taxes in for a good deal.

Thanks for the comments, I'm not happy that you all think this was crappy but it's a good deal to me, next time I will be sure to consult with the experts here before I book anything.

[Garavar]

We are no experts, no one can claim to be but, I tend to think that the following prices are reasonable:

 

$200 per night Balcony

$300 per night JS

$400 per night GS

 

Regardless though, if you are happy with it that is all that matters. Ive been on Liberty its a nice ship you will love it!

I just snagged a Grand Suite for 3,300 with a 300 OBC of Oct 16....which i though was a steal !!!!!

Since the schedule has been released, a D3 balcony's lowest price was $799pp., average after BOGO applied. That was in June 2015. The rate now is $854pp after BOGO applied. It's not a bad rate. It's about $130/night for a D3 balcony for a Jan. sailing.

 

Don't let anyone confuse you as just about every room will have some sort of a different price by the time Jan 2017 rolls around. Book it if you feel good and enjoy your cruise.

We also got what I consider a "good deal" for the 1-22-17 cruise! :D

[OfTheSeasCruiser]

I've been looking at Liberty's 1/22 cruise (and Adventure's 1/21 cruise).

 

Liberty is a good deal for 3 people, IMO. Under $2300 total with $300 OBC. For comparison, we are paying over $3200 for Allure this February, which we still consider to be a fine price.

Thanks for your post!

 

Nowadays on Royal......anything under $1800 for two people in a ocean balcony for a week is a good deal. Hopefully that will change when the new itineraries come out in Mar/Apr.

Don't worry about it. You could say that you got a 21 day cruise and they paid you $500 to go on it and someone would say it was a bad deal. Go. Have fun. Enjoy yourself.

[nikrod73]

I'm always interested to see/know what is a "good" deal. I'm assuming that's what I have...7 people in a royal family suite, 7 nights on Liberty, leaving Easter (3/27): $7700 (base price and taxes). First cruise for all, hoping/assuming we did well as recent prices have been close to this for two inside cabins. Looking forward to everything, especially suite benefits! Hoping all goes well, reviews are all over the place, I'll read one "outstanding", followed by "worst cruise ever". I'm thinking a cruise experience is very subjective and with not having any past experiences to compare, it should all be wonderful!

We paid $1920 for three in a E3 on Nov 27! With 400 OBC. Which I think is a good deal

On Liberty?

 

That last week of November to first week in December always has great prices.

[The Fun Researcher]

When I checked last night, it looked like I could get a deluxe balcony for just over $1900 for two people for the 7 night cruise late Jan 2017. That included prepaid gratuities and then there is $300 OBC on top of that yet. So yeah, I agree that the price is pretty attractive.

What every one thinks is a good price is really dependent on what you are willing to spend. Overall $1780 I would say is about average, especially when I think of some prices of other cruise lines. My parents booked a 10 day on Carnival in a balcony for $1300 - so for instance I would consider that to be a really good price.

 

I am paying more for the Anthem of the Seas for a 9 day for an Oceanview, so it just really depends on what you are willing to spend and feel you can afford.

Agreed. So much goes into a price. You can't put blanket statements out there, like "$WXYZ.00 is not a good price"

 

You can get dirt cheap cruises if you are willing to go on older, smaller ships.

 

The Liberty is a large/mega class ship with new updates.

 

My in-laws tell me all the time about the insanely cheap prices they can get on Carnival cruises (which is what they sailed on 100% until we we went on our RCI cruise together Dec 2014). When I look at the ships with those insanely cheap prices, I would rather save my money and sail on a nice ship.

I've got two cruises booked this year ... One fourteen-day solo TA on the Briliance and one double occupancy five-day on Anthem ... both are balcony cabins ... guess which cabin costs more

I wish we could find the deals many of you get, but in our case, we can only sail Middle of January to end of February, only out of Texas and we don't like Carnival, that only leaves Liberty. The price we got for 2017 is less than we are paying for 2016, and that we booked a year ago, so I was pleased with what we got.

 

The best deal we ever got was cruising with my husband 11/2001 and got Celebrity Millenium 7 night for 350.00 pp for balcony, we did have to fly to Ft Lauderdale for that one. Cruise lines were pretty desperate after 9/11.
