Where can I find the kids sail free information? When I try to go to the RCI website it keeps giving me the message "Sorry, the page you requested is no longer available." Yet the logo and link to the same website is present. I tried to do a mock booking thru the travel website I go through but no kids sail free promo is showing up (sailing Freedom 3/3/2018).

Looks like the RCL website is not totally up to speed (surprise) I did a mock booking for your sailing FR 3/3/18 and it is still showing 30% not the 60%, you might have to call them or wait and hope it updates. Good luck

Thanks! And just that fast, my category sold out. :(

We are booked in 7330 right next to my parents in the first hump balcony cabin. There's been one cabin left in our category for months and now it's gone. Sadness.

 

Edit: Now the whole cruise appears to be sold out. What???

I've been having trouble with the website for months. I cannot get it to cooperate on Chrome so I almost always have to use Internet Explorer. Now even that won't cooperate. Frustrating! I'm going to call Royal today and then my travel agent (depending on what I hear from Royal).

Same thing for kids sail free, it says kids sail free when you add the 3/4th passenger, but on the next page they're still being charged a cruise fare. May have to call.

It might be now. I just did one for my February Allure and it's showing the 60% now. Of course my category (JS) is sold out so I couldn't compare category to category. I've also been watching GS pricing and to my utter surprise, they've gone up. Who would've thunk it. :D

I was just able to reprice our Harmony cruise, balcony discount on guest 1 gave us full discount back but insurance went up, still a small change. Our Alaska cruise has been showing JS sold out so haven't been able to see the price in a while. One JS available today for $1,500 more than we booked originally in March when the itinerary was released.:eek: Looked at GS but don't think it is worth giving up JS 1100.

I am not seeing the KSF portion of the promo either. My dates are not blacked out and should qualify. Hopefully the site will update.

When I saw the KSF promo blurb on the website, it mentioned "selected" cruises. Not sure exactly what that means yet, but we may find out as people report in the next few days.

I was able to re-price several cruises all for the end of 2018 and early 2019 to get my full balcony discount on guest 1. I was surprised that they had not gone up as in the past it seems that prices rise somewhat a couple of weeks after the sailings first come out.

I would definitely call in and see what is available. They may be having issues with the site (it seems like they constantly are). Better safe to call and check to see what is there. The number is- 1-866-562-7625. Good luck!

Always hit and miss. Some sailings I get multiple drops in price and sales, some not. Always check and often...

They've added a fancy little purple highlighted box on the booking page where you enter the "how many guests" info.

 

From last months KSF + 30% discount to this months KSF + 60% offer has increased the price by $600ish. :rolleyes:

Is there a way to take advantage of the sale without losing your exact cabin? Our class dropped about $400. Will calling work?

It should work, just don't use the word "cancel".
