shopaholic6 Posted August 7, 2019 #2 Share Posted August 7, 2019 You can always book them and then if they go down in price on the cruise planner, cancel and rebook at the cheaper price 🙂 I have never tried ringing for a better deal so not sure if you would get anywhere doing that 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks If you're prepared to pay 41, buy it now. If the price drops later, you can cancel and buy again at the lower price. Just bear in mind that you will need to pay the full amount for the new price, then wait a couple of weeks for a refund on the original purchase.

Jaimel134 Posted August 7, 2019 #4 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I am also on this sailing and I am waiting to see also if the deluxe pricing comes down. I have sailed previously with RC but have either had drink package included or it was before the drink packages were changed to just one acholic option, so I have nothing to compare the current price of £41 to. I have been monitoring since I booked 6 weeks ago and it has always been either £41 or £44. My guess is the £41 will be the best price on offer. i would be interested to hear if any others on this sailing or other sail dates from UK this year as to what the best price they have/had got.

rattla Posted August 7, 2019 #5 Share Posted August 7, 2019 I think £41 is a pretty good price. I think the lowest I’ve seen it this year is £38, but often it’s £44. As others have said, it’s best to take it at this price now and if it comes down, you can always cancel and rebook at the lower price 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is then £41 is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sancho_proudfoot Posted August 7, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Whether or not you have bought the package, on all sailings out of Southampton, the price includes the gratuity ( so no addition if you pay as you go) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chmusar Posted August 7, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Cheers for all the comments I rang them and they said there where no offers on but they gave me some OBC so I used that to book them, will keep an eye open for a better offer and then cancel and rebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimel134 Posted August 7, 2019 #10 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Out of interest how much OBC did they give you? might try that myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chmusar Posted August 7, 2019 Author #11 Share Posted August 7, 2019 350 dollars, I mentioned always cruised with P and O and this was my first taste of RCCL, also I only booked the cruise a couple of weeks ago as a last minute thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
