OBC for sky suite

[wallysdtr]

We were originally booked in an Aqua Spa cabin.  Transferred the reservation to an online TA (the rep we have is wonderful!).  About a month ago, the rates - after final payment was due - dropped so much so that we upgraded to a Sky Suite.    In reviewing the changes with the TA, we did get additional OBC with the agency.  All good.    But there was a discussion here on cruise critic that had me thinking there would be additional OBC for the suite. 

When I spoke with a Celebrity customer service rep, he said that the $150 per person was the only OBC for any cabin, regardless of whether it was a veranda, aqua, suite, etc. 

 

In looking at our exact cruise as a new booking, here is the OBC information :  Onboard credit is not redeemable for cash and expires on final night of the cruise. Savings Offer: Savings amounts are per person and vary by stateroom category: $100 for inside and ocean view; $200 for veranda, Concierge Class, and AquaClass; $500 for Suites. Offer applies to first two guests in the stateroom 

 

Does it show $500 for suites because of the current offering by Celebrity?  Or did I get incorrect information from the Celebrity rep?

The 4 perks that come with the Suite include $300 OBC for the cabin.  On board booking often offer additional, OBC which varies by length of the cruise and cabin type on those offers Sky suites usually get  less OBC than the high level suites. Some promotions also offer additional OBC.  Call you TA and ask about the OBC they should be able to explain this.

If you have an on board booking the amount of OBC does vary based on cabin category and length of cruise.

I think this paragraph is also giving information on the amount saved off of the cruise fare for booking different categories.

It really depends on the Promotions at time of booking and whether you booked aboard on on land.    Usually an On-board booking includes at least an additional $100 pp credit.  Recently Celebrity was having a sale and offering an additional $100 pp for booking on land.
