Rare mkcurran Posted February 5, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Would you call in and bother with a $10 price drop? All other promotions remain the same. Also final payment is a week away, will the price drop more if they are dropping it now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallow Posted February 5, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I fill out the price protection form only for any price drop. Takes like 5 minutes max and usually you hear back in a couple hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolita22 Posted February 5, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I would, and did. It's money in your pocket! I just filled out the price protection form online, though. That way I wasn't taking up someone's time on the phone and they could get to the form when they got to it (they say 2 business days, but have turned around the price drop/OBC the same day each time I've sent in the form).

All other promotions remain the same.Also final payment is a week away, will the price drop more if they are dropping it now? Call you PVP first to make sure it won't have a negative effect on you. On a previous cruise, I had applied for a $30.00 price drop, but there had also been an increase in the port fees. I got the price drop, but I also got "dinged" for the increase in port fees. I think it was about $45.00 or $50.00. So I actually ended up losing money. Be careful applying for price drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerseygirl1416 Posted February 5, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I just did today! But I didn’t call I just filled out the price protection form on line and received the credit within the hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teknoge3k Posted February 5, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Now that they have discontinued the fare viewer, how does everyone check prices? Just do a mock booking. Very simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teknoge3k Posted February 5, 2018 #17 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I just emailed my PVP and told her we have a sailing that dropped by $20. She ends up adding it as OBC for us. When we get back from our next sailing I'll tell her about the promotion you always get after a cruise, and she'll apply that credit as well.

erikaem86 Posted February 6, 2018 #23 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I would call and ask if they have anything better. When I did this, they found a cheaper price than I had found and I saved even more $$$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcancruise Posted February 6, 2018 #24 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Both times recently when I have applied for a small price drop, when I got my reply they gave me significantly more than I applied for. Glad I didn't pass on the small price drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy4Camping Posted February 6, 2018 #25 Share Posted February 6, 2018 When I booked I did it over the phone and was told that the price protection is automatic so I shouldn't have to do anything right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
