tx121 Posted February 26, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Wow! What a cheap cruise on the Epic! I'm shocked that they are not charging a single supplement fee either for a non studio cabin! Is there issues with the Epic? Wish I had vacation time! Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare G-DawgMN Posted February 26, 2020 #2 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Well it is only a week or so out so you can expect some bargain pricing. I personally don't like the Epic, but a price like that can sway me over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted February 26, 2020 #3 Share Posted February 26, 2020 NCL having a little trouble selling the remaining unsold cabins, probably took most of the upgrade bids already. If you add the DSC to the total above, it won't go over $500. Apply 2 CruiseNext Certficate ($250 face value x 2) and you don't owe anything or need to be any balance with a credit card 😁 😜 . Plus, if you own NCLH stocks, still time to submit & claim a $100 non-refundable OBC to use. Shorex credit is bonus, beware of restrictions & limitations on use, plus whatever OBC from using outside T/A booking. It's a win-win, Epic isn't popular with some due to ship's design/layout & restroom/shower setup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranknBeans Posted February 26, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Great price but you couldn't get me to stay in an inside cabin even if the cruise was free. Especially after the Princess ship fiasco. I would just lose it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlyssaJames Posted February 26, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) I saw a 7 day western carib on Escape yesterday for $279 base fare for a NON GTY inside (so you did get one perk), no solo supplement. Leaving in a few days. I assume there is a lot of this out there right now due to COVID19.

Travelling2Some Posted February 26, 2020 #6 Share Posted February 26, 2020 (edited) I stumbled across this last night: $489 for 22 Days Dubai to Rome on the Jade. 14 ports with overnights in Egypt and Israel and a Suez canal transit on March 18th. I'd be checking airfare and packing my bags now instead of posting if it didn't conflict with a vacation I've already paid for in full!

smplybcause Posted February 26, 2020 #7 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Nah, prices had been dropping for a while. I don't know what they are now, but airfare was freaking expensive for this cruise for months which I know kept people from booking. Right now everyone that booked earlier is frantically upgrading due to the price. drop. I got a pretty good cabin for the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeHeartCruising Posted February 26, 2020 #8 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I have the time available to do this cruise solo, but by the time I add in airfare and hotels it pushes it out of my willing-to-pay price. If I lived in Florida, I'd be all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted February 26, 2020 #10 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Here's another solo deal, on a different ship, the Escape T/A - mid April, 15 days that disembark in Rome ... one-way airfare might be a deal breaker but if you got airline miles/points to burn, this is a steal, as little as $31 a day, including DSC for a SailAway Oceanview GTY (midship Deck 5 or better ... it's a great location for the long crossing, as it can be choppy in the middle of the Atlantic) Base fare for solo is $542 + $204 port taxes/fees/charges = $746 only, including $50 shorex credit per port/use it or lose it. Use 2 CN certificate = charge of $242 + $225 DSC ($15/day x 15) = $467 only. NCLH holders to claim a $250 non-refundable OBC to use onboard, which is enough to buy 2 more CN certificates onboard (face value is $250 x 2) "Free" at Seas promo will cost a little more, i.e. if UBP is important or a must, or SDP (5 days included, I think) - plus 20%. Prices for solo in a balcony are higher, discounted but still a "penalty" ... Given the global health "crisis" warning, most definitely opt & shop for a good travel/trip insurance bundle instead of going self-insured, last minute airfare changes can be VERY costly, enough said.

tx121 Posted February 27, 2020 Author #11 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Now I know why it may be cheaper... College Spring Break! Will avoid at all cost during those weeks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
