gerelmx Posted October 31, 2019 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2019 If I book a B2B2B 3 consecutive cruises the discount is applied to the 3 cruises or only to the first two cruises? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted October 31, 2019 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2019 We had 2 separate B2Bs booked on 1 we only got the discount on the 1st leg. On the other we got a discount of $100 on tge 1st leg and $50 on the 2nd leg, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted October 31, 2019 #3 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I currently have a B2B2B booked. Got a $100 discount on the first cruise and $50 for each of the other cruises. Who knows what the "system" is??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted October 31, 2019 #4 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Part of the "system" is the length of the cruise legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny01 Posted October 31, 2019 #5 Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) When we went B2B, each cruise was treated separately and we got 2 perks and onboard credit for each, as standalone cruises. Didn’t get anything for booking B2B themselves. Den Edited October 31, 2019 by Denny01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mynki Posted October 31, 2019 #6 Share Posted October 31, 2019 it has been mentioned on here before that sometimes you have to request B2B discount at the point of booking otherwise some agents won't apply it at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickey89 Posted October 31, 2019 #7 Share Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) Celebrity U.K. gave £100 per cruise discount on a B2B. (Reflection 10 & 11night cruises - Nov 2020) Our U.K. travel agent was unable to give the discount and advised me to book direct with Celebrity to get the discount and tell them that I wished to transfer the booking to them afterwards. Celebrity asked why and emphasised that they would equal the TA’s discount which was 11% below Celebrity U.K. list price and give us the additional £200 for the B2B. Also I only needed to pay the deposit for the first cruise (£300)not both cruises. I accepted as I now have a great deal with the additional benefit of being able to transfer my booking free of any charges before FP as an elite member’s perk if the need arises.

TeaBag Posted October 31, 2019 #8 Share Posted October 31, 2019 We have nothing on B2B South America and I wish I had realized this when we booked on board. Too late now as we have transferred the cruise to a TA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbachief Posted October 31, 2019 #9 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I asked a few months after we had booked with a TA and they were able to get us the OBC. Never hurts to ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbachief Posted October 31, 2019 #10 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Now that I think about it, we may have gotten a price reduction. Not for sure, but we did get the B2B credit somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted October 31, 2019 #11 Share Posted October 31, 2019 TA's can definitely get you the discount 'after the fact'. As to different dollar amounts, we have been told in the past that it varies by the length of the cruise. And it should apply to each and every leg as they are all considered separate cruises.

Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted November 1, 2019 #12 Share Posted November 1, 2019 The length of the cruise explanation makes sense. The first cruise is a 10-nighter to which we added two 7-nighters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mynki Posted November 1, 2019 #13 Share Posted November 1, 2019 The length of the cruise will be applicable. In the UK B2B discounts are :- 7-9 Night Sailings - £32.00 10 Night or Greater Sailings - £64.00 The savings are per cruise so if you booked a 7 night cruise followed by a 10 night sailing you would receive a total saving of £96.00. Please note that these discounts are total and not per person. There are some travel agency rates that they are not combinable with, so if you do book with a travel agent, please make sure they check if the discount is applicable. Again, speak to your TA at the point of booking. Many appear not to know about these with the UK's largest 'cruise specialist' stating that there are no back to back savings with Celebrity UK which is according to Celebrity UK themselves, incorrect!!!!

di T Posted November 1, 2019 #15 Share Posted November 1, 2019 Always ask for the b2 b discount sometimes the travel agents says no and if you push them to request it I’ve always received it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddya think? Dear Jay at the Weybridge office You're people manning your Facebook page and in your call center are quoting me BSB discount amounts depending on the length of cruises booked with yourselves on 01/11/2019. There is some internet randomer who's getting his knickers in a twist online because he claims he was given a different amount to what your colleagues are telling other people. It could be that things have changed since he made his booking, it is known to happen with Celebrity after all. A clerical error could have been made. Or it could be different cruise lengths attract different discounts. He seems incapable of considering any of that. Can you please confirm before he experiences cardiac arrest, voids his travel insurance and is no longer able to benefit from his B2B discount?
