Rare Cruise Junky Posted October 25, 2017 #201 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I can still access the 2019 Pursuit itineraries on the AZ website, despite the countdown indicating another hour to go. Yeah, they're still there but with price increases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazza_0712 Posted October 25, 2017 #202 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Yeah, they're still there but with price increases. The itinerary I viewed earlier is still at the same price for the suite categories, though there may have been an increase in inside/verandah categories but I haven’t paid attention to that.

midwestchick Posted October 25, 2017 #203 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I suspect the Az website isn't fairing too well. I could see the Pursuit cruises and the book now function. I was interested in the 11 night 9th March Argentina to Brazil. The pricing looked promising @ $3,250AUDpp (free upgrade from interior to balcony). I was just about to see if my parents, brothers and fiance wanted to book it. I went back on and the pricing has since doubled. Now all cruises have vanished and the clock is back. What in the world? How can this happen? It certainly isn't a way to fill the ship. It's disheartening to read this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clock has now run out and mine's changed by $2000. I'm not sure whether to cry or throw up. Hopefully I can get my rentals back. I'm beyond furious with this.

Chris86 Posted October 25, 2017 #205 Share Posted October 25, 2017 yep ok... clock finished. sailings are back up. the room that I was quoted at $7,500 only a few hours ago is now $12,500. I notice all the sailings have increased a couple of grand each. Well I have totally lost interest with Azamara and these games. Seems if you booked on the spot you were one of the lucky few!

Rare uktog Posted October 25, 2017 #206 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Absolutely gutted here as well. It’s the same tactic as Celebrity used last week re Edge. Sent from my iPad using Forums Edited October 25, 2017 by uktog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodaxe Posted October 25, 2017 #207 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Just checked - they are no longer on line - Glad I got in early.[/quote Looks like you have been very lucky. Has I was looking earlier the prices disappeared. When they return they may even have gone up, well done you. I posted this yesterday but did not really expect it to come true., I for one will not now be booking..

No when you pull through to booking for the ones we had been considering they are either higher or now on call for pricing which means there’s a change. Anyway time will tell ......

upwarduk Posted October 25, 2017 #211 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Just checked the prices for Ocean view, as inside are way more expensive, due to the fact that balcony are the same price as inside, so inside is inflated!

cinnamon Posted October 25, 2017 #213 Share Posted October 25, 2017 This is ABSURD. we are away in Wales with friends and were not in a position to contact an agent yesterday. This morning the Nov 18 Transatlantic has shot up in price. I’m beyond annoyed with Azamara. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cinnamon Posted October 25, 2017 #217 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I may be wrong about the TA. Prices with UK agents include flights. Possibly. Mmm. Lots to investigate. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excitedofharpenden Posted October 25, 2017 #218 Share Posted October 25, 2017 I’m on Journey at the moment and have just booked the Antarctic voyage in an OV for a very good price and nearly half what an inside cabin is. Check out OV prices for your cruise. If you don’t mind just a window then promo code 5 attached to them is very attractive at the moment. Just to say I checked this on the UK website before I booked with Michelle, the LCV Manager. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works out at just slightly more than £100 p.p.p.n, which is our yard stick. $ prices in the email I was sent are not comparable to the UK site, so maybe there is a glitch in the web site somewhere!

Snow cat Posted October 25, 2017 #224 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Okay, glad I am not crazy. I was looking at the cruises last night, the screen refreshed and the prices increased substantially. I see they are still the higher prices this a.m. so I guess I missed my chance as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallydave Posted October 25, 2017 #225 Share Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Absolutely unbelievable, just like the 2018 cancelled TA when azamara promoted nites for free and the price for our cabin went up exactly the amount such that the "free" nites brought the price right back to what it was the day before. Appears azamara doesn't care to want to keep knowledgeable loyal cruiser and is banking on playing games with booking availabilities and pricing. Anybody thinking either azamara doesn't care or are completely inept??? In a way quite happy these tricks and attempts at increasing profits on the backs of already booked passengers happened such that we will NEVER consider azamara no matter the wonderful onboard experience. Amazing a company can be so Dr Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. If driving loyal customers away is their goal, they are doing an excellent job. Thankfully haven't heard the "give us another chance" plea.as even the cat with nine lives has hit the dust. Good luck to all with your future choices of cruise lines that actually value their customers. And the beat goes on, just got an email from azamara and even though we are Explorer Le Club Members, this is the email for the general public to book Pursuit. Never got a message for the pre booking day yesterday and the prices are out of this world high!! Guess the excellent it staff according to Bonnie still cannot get their hands around a simple email list and take care of existing customers. Really too bad as the on board experience is wonderful but, completely overcome by the inept greedy home office. Was told that the onboard experience is because of the home office who run the onboard experience but, difficult to believe that the home office can do almost anything correctly. Simple TOO BAD!!!
