Winegirl from CA Posted January 9, 2006 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2006 If this is an illegal question on this board, then I apologize in advance. If not, has anyone used this site, and are they trustworthy? They have some pretty good rates, but I have never heard of them before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marraclc Posted January 10, 2006 #5 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Winegirl, Email me at marraclc(at)yahoo.com if you want more info. We have used cruiseshopping.com for several years. Ditto again on the previous responses. Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichTraveler Posted January 10, 2006 #6 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I use that site for price comparisons. Then I contact my TA. They have never beat her prices. But that site has easy features to find/shop for ships, dates, etc. So I use them for research, then contact my TA for purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwitt2 Posted January 10, 2006 #7 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I suggest contacting one of their own agents. We use one and she beats the prices which are posted on the website. Contact me at jwitt2@att.net if you want her name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2597 Posted January 10, 2006 #8 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Thank you for the cruiseshopping link....I checked the prices and they were indeed lower to than what our TA got us.....However, my agency will match or beat any lower offer. I am calling today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poajj08 Posted January 10, 2006 #9 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I used them to book my cruise on the Sapphire on March 11th of this year - first time I ever used them - I found a cheaper price on a competitor, after I booked, they matched their price, it was before the final payment was due. I have had no problems with them so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree25 Posted January 10, 2006 #10 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I wish I used Cruiseshopping.com Just checked it out and their prices are ridiculously cheap- Could of saved a bundle on our Minisuite and they let you pick the exact room # you want.. Oh well, now I know where to go for the next cruise deal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mafig Posted January 10, 2006 #11 Share Posted January 10, 2006 The rates are excellent. For those of you who have used them, do they charge any cancellation fees? Can you make changes without charge? Do you get regular tickets, or e-docs? I like that they are available 7 days a week. Can't believe I never heard of them.

chris2597 Posted January 10, 2006 #12 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Tree Call your TA and see if they will reduce your fare....I called mine this morning and they did....It was only 74....but it is better in my pocket.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoriaandbrad Posted January 10, 2006 #13 Share Posted January 10, 2006 We used Cruiseshopping.com for our November Asia Diamond Princess cruise. There was no cancellation fee, the rate for our mini-suite was lower than anywhere else (no one could match the price) and we had just wonderful service (sorry if this is illegal information).

naragonl Posted January 10, 2006 #14 Share Posted January 10, 2006 There a few with better prices (if that's what you are looking for). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpear3 Posted January 10, 2006 #15 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Shop around--my online TA still beats the prices of the one suggested. Also, they should be able to match any price reductions, if they are competitive. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2597 Posted January 10, 2006 #16 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Where do you all find these better priced online sites...?? I googled and couldnt find anything lower than my original TA....until I saw the thread about cruiseshopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tpear3 Posted January 10, 2006 #17 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Chris2597 e-mail me at tracey.colligan@sfx.com and I will send you the secret information!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jchris50 Posted January 10, 2006 #18 Share Posted January 10, 2006 We used them for our cruise this month and saved $900 per cabin over the cruise line site! Will definitely use them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynda90 Posted January 10, 2006 #19 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Where do you all find these better priced online sites...?? I googled and couldnt find anything lower than my original TA....until I saw the thread about cruiseshopping. At one time we were allowed to discuss TA's on this board. During that time many of us found excellent TA's through other members. But, we are no longer able to exchange TA info, so the newer members do not get the benefit of the experienced members. Too bad. :confused: I am really surprised that this thread has not been pulled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is too bad as we all like to shop around for a good cruise price but then again I've never heard of this agency. Will definitely put them on the list. I think Host Tink is in school and LauraS is sailing the high seas so....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
