JC5240 Posted July 24, 2019 #178 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Incorrect information (unless, of course, you're beyond final payment as Turtle stated). I booked my May 2021 cruise July 3rd, and had it adjusted July 22nd. 10 hours ago, Umbarger said: Who are you guys calling? My agent called and was told new bookings only.

It is not on my Escape for July 2020 but for the ones that follow, so, probably the less popular dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredZiffle Posted July 24, 2019 #181 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I haven't seen any evidence on this promo actually being applied for cruises I've tried to book. One TA even had it advertised on their website for a particular cruise and advised people to call. When I did, they could give me nothing lower than the price that was listed on the site for the general public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swmichigan cruiser Posted July 24, 2019 #182 Share Posted July 24, 2019 We just off the Getaway yesterday in Copenhagen and saw the 20% off Latitudes offer and emailed my TA. She looked up the discount and we got it for three of our future cruises with no loss of perks. Total saving for the three cruises was around $3,000. worked out well for us obviously. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are multiple posts here stating the savings they received. How much "evidence" do you need? They applied the discount to my Bliss cruise with no other changes. I saved almost $700.

Just pointing out my personal experience. The cruise I'm looking at is the same price on every TA website as well as NCL. Yes, the cruise I was looking at is part of the promo, yet I'm not seeing any price reduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Umbarger Posted July 24, 2019 #185 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I called Ncl myself and was told no problem have my agent call. I really wonder if my agent did call or just made something up. I wouldn't put it past them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is, are you following the instructions given here. Log into your MYNCL, scroll down and select "Specials", select "Past Guest Offers" and search. It should, as others have found, show 175 cruises available for the 20% off. If you've done it like that then maybe there's a problem with the system. I guarantee the cruise I booked on the Breakaway, Jan. 22, 2020 does give me an approx. savings of $700 booking an OA oceanview cabin. Let us know if this works and if not, call NCL direct, if you're interested, that is. BTW, you won't see the price diff. until almost finished the mock booking.

Have you opened NCL’s web site, followed the link on the first page for this sale, and logged on (as a Latitudes member)? Until you are logged on and go thru with the first steps for a booking, you won’t see the sale prices. What cruise are you looking at? There’s a ton of “evidence” that the 20% off is being applied.

Sure is...a few days ago I took advantage of it for one of my upcoming cruises in January 2020. All my TA had to do was reprice the cruise and I saved well over $1,000.

missinver Posted July 24, 2019 #189 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I was able to book with the 20% off from UK on Monday - I received an email on Sunday from NCL advertising it. I was straight on to my travel agent on Monday morning, as we have been stalking the Panama Canal cruise on the Bliss for Feb 21 for ages!! It reduced the price by around £700 & the price included drinks & dining package. Gotta love a bargain!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wonder if my agent did call or just made something up. I wouldn't put it past them. Absolutely... your TA needs to be persistent and have NCL re-book your cruise if necessary. Shame on your TA if they just ignored you or pretended to call. That said, with the recent hiring of a lot of brand new NCL reps, your TA might have gotten one who wasn't up-to-date on the sale. Hope you eventually get your savings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julie3fan Posted July 24, 2019 #191 Share Posted July 24, 2019 When my TA called the first time, the rep didn't know anything about the sale, and had to put him on hold over 1/2 an hour while they figured it out. Hopefully all the reps have been made aware of this promo by now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erdoran Posted July 24, 2019 #192 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Can you fax or email your TA a screenshot of your mock booking showing the lower price? can't argue with that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoopslover Posted July 25, 2019 #193 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Saw this thread last night, went to NCL to check if our Jewel August 2020 b2b was listed. It was and I did a mock booking and it saved almost $500 on the first week. I emailed my TA and she got back to me this pm and had received lower prices on both weeks. Saved $466 for the first week and $830 for the 2nd week. The staterooms are the same, the perks are the same. We did have to add the specialty dining (which we originally turned down) so we had to pay the gratuities on that. Still we saved $1296!

However, in looking at the cruises with this discount, there are Latitude offerings still available. I called 2 weeks ago and we got the LATREW and the LATVIP for our booking. And on top of that we had a 20% off from our Cuba cruise cancellation. So we got a pretty sweet deal on our Baltic next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuliHuli Posted July 25, 2019 #195 Share Posted July 25, 2019 We book through Costco and had verified that our November cruise was one of the discounted cruises. Not only was Costco happy to contact NCL to "re-fare" our cruise, but we also received some "Take All Free" perks we did not previously have, and the extra Latitudes point for each night of the cruise. It's time to start shopping for another cruise while this lasts. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a tip to keep checking prices and promos after you've booked (whether or not you have a TA). PS: It's against the CC rules to mention specific travel agents by name.

david_sobe Posted July 25, 2019 #198 Share Posted July 25, 2019 (edited) If you have the time the best deal at sea is in this promo. 14 night sailing from NYC on the Bliss. The prices are what a normal 7 night would be. You can even score an aft penthouse for only 5k pp which is around the price of a 7 night Bliss. If I lived in near NYC, I would be on this cruise. Balcony cabins 1439 pp. This should be called buy one week, get one week free. Dates are Jan 5 - 19 2020 The price is so good, I wonder if its a typo. 14 nights in the Caribbean from NYC on a new megaship Bliss. Seems hard to believe Edited July 25, 2019 by david_sobe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems hard to believe I wish I could do that one. 35 days at sea in four months would probably put my boss over the edge. Take a look at the Bliss 21 day Panama Canal in April. It is also very well-priced. I booked in January and there have been four price drops including this 20% off sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhoenix Posted July 25, 2019 #200 Share Posted July 25, 2019 Let me also add my thanks to the OP. I’ve been trying to get a cruise on the books for a while now, and this extra 20% off was just what I needed. We ended up booking our dream cruise through New Zealand in 2021 in a Haven DOS and saved $3000! Now I have a cruise to look forward to. I’m so excited! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
