Julieh40 Posted November 19, 2018 #1 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Just tried to book a balcony room for the Breakaway March 24-31. On the website it clearly shows all 5 offers apply to the booking. When I attempted to book online, the free airfare offer disappears. I call NCL directly. The booking agent also sees what I see on my screen. I get put on hold. She comes back and says those offers don't apply to the dates I have selected. Isn't that false advertising? I didn't push the issue with her. Perhaps I should be asking to speak to someone higher up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted November 19, 2018 #2 Share Posted November 19, 2018 The airfare offer is very limited. When you look at the booking window you have to pay attention to the colors in the corner, by the dates. While this may be disappointing, it is not false advertising.

Rare ColeThornton Posted November 19, 2018 #3 Share Posted November 19, 2018 If you click on the offer on NCL.com, the next page is: https://www.ncl.com/cruise-deals/choice?intcmp=pro_hpb_TAKEALL1118 There is a tab right there that says "show eligible dates". Nothing hidden, deceptive or false as far as I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted November 19, 2018 #4 Share Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) From what I see, March 24-31 on Breakaway offers all 5... UOB Excursion Wi-Fi SDP 3rd/4th Free I do see the Airfare for other categories, though. Edited November 19, 2018 by Two Wheels Only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted November 19, 2018 #5 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Going through the booking, I believe that the OP is correct and that the website is showing incorrect info. Not only does the airfare not show up, the 3rd/4th Free disappears and it becomes "Take 4" for balcony bookings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anytime you do a booking or mock booking for only 2 guests the 3rd/4th option disappears as it is N/A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtkenmore Posted November 19, 2018 #8 Share Posted November 19, 2018 The 3rd/4th free is only on select sailings. If the sailing isn’t eligible for ¾ free, then you get all four. If it is eligible, then you get all five. You can can narrow the search for only eligible sailings on 3rd/4th free in the cruise search form.

Selected Atlanta and it was $0 for airfare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
