Has Anyone Seen Resident Rates or Senior Rates?

Does the senior/resident rate discount indicated on the detailed fare breakdown.

Yes, on the screen after you pick a cabin.

[cruizers]

I use to be able to get Senior and Resident rates quite often when it got closer to a cruise. Since the non-refundable rates started I haven seen any become available. Has anyone else come across them recently?

 

I have not seen either for quite some time.

You can usually get a price drop as long as it is not after final payment date.

Then the 46% discount per rather than the standard 50% off 2nd Pax for the Symphony sail must be due to RCL's math as Biker indicated.:confused:

We're booked on the Oct 27, 2018 Harmony of the Seas cruise in a large oceanview balcony. When I check the current price (non-refundable deposit), it's showing a $263 senior discount, in addition to the flash sale. So the overall price is approximately $150 less than we paid, but we booked last year while on-board, and got a $275 OBC, so we still got a better deal.

Call Royal you will be able to get the better price and still keep the OBC. I'v done it many times. As long as it's before final payment date, which your cruise is.

$275 sounds a bit high for OBC from booking on board. If any of that was from the then current promotion, that would be lost, wouldn’t it?

I've gotten as much as $300 for booking a 12 night balcony cabin. Extra $100 was for booking a non refundable.

I have seen senior rates on the Oasis for January 6, 2019.

Just did a mock booking for Ovation in Alaska in 2019 and got a senior discount.

This is new to me .I never heard of senior rates or resident rates.

[JBSteelerfan]

Got a resident rate discount a few years back, but have not had that on our last couple of sailings from Galveston.

Hey Gail, Do you book online or on the ship for the OBC, and then call Casino Royale?

[ravensfan52]

Just checked my parents booking and got them a $-200 discount for SC resident rate. I also got our booking a $75 rate drop (not sure why), but it doesn't hurt to call and ask!!

There are also special rates for law enforcement and military - they are becoming just as rare as the other two.

I was able to nab a resident rate and rebook our September Serenade cruise to Bermuda right before final payment. Took about $400 off the total price which was nice!
