Captain's Circle Special Offers

[crawford]

Haven't seen a similar thread for 3 years and wanted to get a current update.

 

Is it possible for Princess to offer better pricing based on Captain's Circle status?

 

Was in the process of booking two cabins with friends (we are Platinum, they are Gold or Ruby).

TA stated that their pricing was almost twice as high as ours, as they weren't allowed to book at the same discount.

 

Feedback is appreciated!

Anythings is possible, but I have never heard of this. Each of you try going on the Princess web site and see what pricing is shown. Make sure you sign in first.

Maybe your TA wanted to look good? Or are you referring to the casino discount cruises that are offered to certain CC members?

Don't want to assume. Do your friends live the same area as you? Reason I say this is that Princess has different pricing for different areas of the country based on your home address.

Would the price be the same if you booked the two cabins?

Is "Share the Savings" available? We've used it several times when traveling with others. It allow you to invite 2 additional couples at the same rate you got.

There are special offers emailed to some past guests .

No rhyme or reason who gets the email but your Captains Circle #

must show that you were sent that email.

Unless you are getting a casino discount, you should be able to share your rates with your friends...

No casino. Very standard booking after I logged into Princess and saw pricing. Although our friends don't have the same status as us, we have always booked/travelled together, getting the same pricing.

They live in Illinois; we live in Virginia.

No mailing, just a normal past guest booking via a TA.

There are multiple reasons - you could be getting a past passenger rate, or a targeted rate, regional rate, Captain Circle rate, etc...

 

You can potentially book both guys in one cabin and gals in another cabin and both get the same lower rate and then change it once on the ship so the couples are together. Have your TA try that. It is possible only one of you (you or your spouse) is eligible for the better rate but the 2nd person gets it with you. In that case, separating the guys won't help.

This was ultimately the solution! After booking, I sew that the cruise qualified for "Share the Savings". Filled out the form and they received the email immediately. Also got notification on the Princess website that they had booked.

 

Thanks for your assistance!
