Desert Cruizers Posted July 23, 2018 #26 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I have always booked when the dates open for any cruise I am looking to do. I check prices regularly for drops and when I see what appears to be a price drop, factor in any deductions taken on my booking etc, the new price is not always lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WorkerBee74 Posted July 23, 2018 Author #27 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Lots of great info and discussion - I really appreciate it. I think I’m going to book this week and see how the rate changes after the 50% off - I’m a daredevil. Won’t wait much longer than that, but good to know I can watch for further price drops and sales for repricing. I imagine if I book online that I’d just call RCI if I see a lower rate? (Prior to final payment of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Prior to final payment of course) That is the classical way to do it. Just remember the downside if you book the non-refundable fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorkerBee74 Posted July 24, 2018 Author #30 Share Posted July 24, 2018 Ahhh I decided to do it. My mom is so excited (will be her first cruise and probably a last-hurrah kind of trip as she is 85 and still thankfully in relatively good health). I booked the refundable deposit version, it was a couple hundred more than the non-refundable deposit, but I am feeling good that if anything bad happens and her health declines we still have until mid-June of next year to cancel with no penalty. Will continue to monitor for price drops though, and might get a good deal on drink packages! *I'll be the boozer and she'll be the non-alcohol refreshment package haha* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
