Is the Go Best perk still available on Sky Suites?

What sailing? As a free perk? Do a ghost booking on Celebrity's website to see if they are offering any for the cruise you are interested in.

I keep checking the price on a June Equinox cruise (hoping to get a reasonable cost differential to upgrade from Concierge to Sky Suite), and it always says "suites get all four perks free" with no disclaimer / exclusion of Sky Suites. Having said that, as per usual, they're not actually free, because there's a lower price for resident rate and senior rate, which come with a "no perks" disclaimer. Oy.

Edited because I forgot we had to change from May to June due to the refurb getting extended. :)

Well, if the Senior or Res rate when combined with the "perks" ala carte is lower than the "Free" perks price others are stuck with, you might count yourself lucky!

Currently all Equinox cruises next summer include 4 perks for ocean view and above if you're willing to accept a non refundable deposit.

You get all four if you are willing to pay $315 p.p. When pricing it out, it comes up showing the first two is included in the price. If you click on the BEST option, the $315 p.p. pops up and it's there when you go to book if you decide to do the BEST option.

We just came back from a cruise where we took the resident rate discount over the go best. We had Elite internet discount and casino drinks so that helped. We just ended up spending more time at the Michaels Club bar. go best is nice so you don’t have to think about anything but when I did the math we netted over $1,000 savings when we factored in the difference between the resident rate and our on board charges.

Normally yes it costs more. But for 4 more days they are offering all 4 perks for any room outside or above at no additional cost, you just have to be willing to book with the non refundable deposit for Equinox sailings next summer. If you aren't willing to book the non refundable deposit then you only get 2 free perks.

Do a dummy booking like I did for a week in August. It comes up with the Better at the listed price. If you want Best, hit the Best button and it shows +$315 p.p. which is added to the price. If I remember right, the listed price was $1399 p.p. for two perks. The price with all four is $1714 p.p. plus taxes and fees. Try it if you don’t believe me.

Nope exact same price, next summer Equinox, if you are willing to book with the non refundable deposit you get all 4 perks. If you want a refundable deposit then you only get 2 perks, but of course could pay more for additional perks with a refundable deposit.

Yes! As long as it’s not very close to sailing! Check either skymiles Cruises, American Airlines Cruises or United! If it’s for next year most sailings will have them except repositioning cruises such as Transatlantic and Transpacific! Generally S2 are the way to go on those unless you enjoy aft facing staterooms like those that you’ll find with S1
