Norwegian Escape

November 25 - Dember 9, 2018

roundtrip New York

 

Solo oceanview guarantee $749

solo balcony guarantee $799

 

(port fees and taxes $276.20 additional)

interesting that the insides still has full  solo supplement.

even more interesting is that a regular inside costs more than a regular ov!! ($1600 for 2 vs $1050 for 2)

 

$750 is 1.4x of $1050.

so still a 40% solo supplement.

 

waiting for 0% solo supplement. 

ie: OV for $525

 

but i've been wrong before and missed buying the cruise.

ie: 7day Breakaway nov 11,2018.

was $299, then $339, and now $500 :classic_sad:

NCL Latitudes email 11/5.

Epic 11/24 balcony solo 11 days W Caribbean, $629  with Free at sea.

I'm on the Epic 12/5 after this. If I wasn't house sitting in the SF Bay area, I

might have added this for a 21 day B2B.

Flight from Toronto to San Juan costs more than the cruise. 😞

I booked an inside cabin almost two years early for the January 2020 Gem New York to San Francisco cruise at a fairly steep rate, but only paid $1. deposit...

I am carefully watching the January 2019 Gem New York to Los Angeles cruise, to see the pattern of fare reduction's as the sail date gets close.   It is already less than half what my fare is, and I suspect it will continue to drop.

When final payment is due for mine, based on comparison, I may take a chance, cancel, and wait for last minute to rebook, if it looks like a similar trend...

Princess will be offering $1.00 deposits on their cruises on Cyber Monday, Nov. 26th. One day only. 

Does Princess ships have any solo cabins are you booking at the full solo supplement in the hopes that your choice will be one that ends up with a reduced solo supplement?

Princess does not have any solo cabins, so you are paying the cruise fare for two. You only have to pay port taxes and gratuities for yourself. 

 

I’m not aware of any reduced solo supplements with Princess. I’m a destination cruiser (don’t repeat places I’ve been) and they offer itineraries that interest me. I budget accordingly. If you are just looking for a generic Caribbean cruise, for example, there are probably better price points on some other cruise lines as a solo.

Not dirt cheap, but I consider it a good price if you can get reasonable airfare or tag it onto something else.

MSC has slashed some itineraries.

23 days Dubai to Hong Kong - $1,212.20 Ocean View +$192 tax   /   $1750 Balcony

extend the same trip to 28 days with a Japan disembarkation for $1,838 interior +$192 tax
