ONECRUISER Posted November 27, 2019 #176 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, CP3o said: So IF we can believe the flyer dates then it seems like wouldn't want to book tonight just in case the prices seeing now are normal fluctuations and might be slightly better tomorrow on the 27th. The counter arguement I guess is to assume sales for "Dates: November 27 - December 3, 2019" have already been loaded b/c soda package is 6.50. They are on Mine. Soda was in my multiple sailings Cart's, unpurchased that I put in weeks ago. Asterisk showing dropped to $6.50(+ Grats)...

mspect462 Posted November 27, 2019 #177 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I am sailing on the Oasis in December 22. Just went online and found the soda package is on sale for $6.50 a day ( never seen it below $8.99 a day) and the refreshment package is on sale for $17 a day. Check your sailings and see if there are sales. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tee & Chilli Posted November 27, 2019 #178 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Dec 1 is not eligible for Black Friday however the Taste of Royal has decreased from $54 to $43. Perhaps it’s not selling well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
debshomespun Posted November 27, 2019 #179 Share Posted November 27, 2019 If I want the 1 device for regular internet at $10.99 sale price, will they apply my D+ discount on top of the sale price? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted November 27, 2019 #180 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Nope. D+ discount is only applied to onboard packages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PigsCanFly Posted November 27, 2019 #181 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Thanks mspect. I just cancelled/rebooked on 3 of 4 of our booked cruises for this soda pkg. Dec 8 Harmony, Grandeur in Jan and Mar. Since there are 3 of us, the savings were significant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to cancel my Cafe Card as that was duplication. We'll see if it's worth it for me. The fellow told me that there was no limit to the number of drinks I could have. I know there's a limit with the alcohol package. I'm looking forward to trying a whole bunch of drinks I've never had. Should be interesting!

Cutigerlady Posted November 27, 2019 #184 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I noticed they added the Black Friday ad this morning, but the prices I saw from last night are the same. It says: beverage packages up to 50% off dining packages up to 40% off or more internet & more up to 35% off or more shore excursions up to 25% off beverage packages look like Refreshment and soda packages, some token discount on some deluxe packages. Internet deals for 4 devices that was worth it. Shore excursions looked the same as before Dining packages looked similar to previous “sales” with nothing special. I saved $3pp on Refreshment package for my kids and snagged 4 device internet for $23.99 per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare vacationlover_mn Posted November 27, 2019 #185 Share Posted November 27, 2019 For our feb cruise on oasis, I saw lower prices on some excursions (Labadee) and the internet package. Dunk package is still higher than what I paid a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PQI Posted November 27, 2019 #186 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) On my sailing there seems to be some pretty good deals. Harmony Oct 11 - 18: Deluxe Beverage Package: BOGO 50% OFF at approximately 55.80 USD per person per day (65 USD with gratuities) Ultimate Dining Package: down by approximately 35 USD for a 7-night cruise from the last time I saw the price. It went from 209 USD per person to 174 USD per person, so 25 USD per day. (29.50 with gratuities) I wasn't tracking the exact price of other stuff, but The Key went slightly up for me. Internet packages didn't seem to show too much of a difference, but SURF + Stream for 2 devices is now around 17 USD per day, so more or less 8.50 USD per device per day. Prices for activities in CocoCay seem to have gone down as well, and I can see the Coco Beach Club Day Pass for around 46 USD and Thrill WaterPark Full Day Pass for around 68 USD per person. One thing to note: I'm in Brazil, so all prices I see are in Brazilian Reais. The prices above I have converted using Google's exchange rate, but Royal Caribbean is fairly benevolent in their exchange rates so if you are in the same cruise and note that the prices in USD are slightly higher than what I posted, it could be because of that. Edited November 27, 2019 by PQI Ooops, I miscalculated the BOGO50 discount. The price listed already includes the discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dslucas Posted November 27, 2019 #189 Share Posted November 27, 2019 None of these great “deals” apply to the Mar 15 sailing of Anthem I was stalking. Looking further into it, it appears that’s a popular college spring break week: oh boy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDiamond22 Posted November 27, 2019 #190 Share Posted November 27, 2019 just checked my sailing, pretty much everything (that ive been watching) is exactly the same, and ironically the only change i can see is the single surf only package is 2 dollars more than it has been recently. disappointing.. but really wouldn't expect anything else from royal lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! no problem brother i did the same thing when i first starting tracking prices, the key is ignore the sale banner and just look at that per person per day number, it does change! some times up some times down, no rhyme or reason that's the royal way. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KansasBeachLover Posted November 27, 2019 #192 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Last year the dining package went down on Cyber Monday. If they do that again I'll buy it for my January cruise on Adventure. If not I probably won't spend the money. Right now for my sailing it's $176, which is what it was 2 weeks ago. It fluctuates between $192 and $176. Unless they do the BOGO 50% off sale like last Cyber Monday, I'll probably skip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KansasBeachLover Posted November 27, 2019 #194 Share Posted November 27, 2019 No, we are on January 18th. I WISH I had caught some of that stuff on the Royal mistake! I got my dining package last year the Tuesday after Cyber Monday for the BOGO 50% off for my January Vision cruise and I was happy I had it. I'd do that any day. But it's not important enough to me to pay $400 for us to have it. At that price I would feel like I have to eat the specialty dining every single night to make the cost worth it....and some nights I just don't feel like doing a big dinner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoccerMom#3 Posted November 27, 2019 #197 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Small savings on the May 3 Harmony but nothing earth shattering. Deluxe Beverage Package has been $65 but went down to $61 about a month ago for a few days and then back up to $65. Now at $61 again. Last year on Black Friday I got the Deluxe Beverage Package for $55 for the Sept 1 Harmony for this year but that is the sailing that was canceled due to Hurricane Dorian so we rebooked for May 3. Also was able to get Chops for $39 last year but now they don't offer just Chops. Oh well...I'll keep looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether all the prices will stay the same is unknown. All I can say is that some items like the soda, refreshment and picture packages are some of the lowest prices I've seen for them. I'm not expecting any further discounts 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
