Happy Cruiser 6143 Posted November 9, 2020 #1 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Looks to me as if all inclusive is coming. Was invited to a seminar with this picture. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlantaCruiser72 Posted November 9, 2020 #2 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) I'm going to make a prediction that there will be two price points - room only and "all inclusive" and that the "all inclusive" will include the Classic Drink Package, with Suites getting the Premium Drink Package. This would put them more roughly even on a playing field with Princess. I have registered for the 4:15pm Webinar tomorrow (first one) and will report back as I get information - unless someone else beats me to it :) Edited November 9, 2020 by AtlantaCruiser72 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have time for the webinar at the moment. And your prediction would be welcome. I prefer to purchase benefits/amenities that add value to me personally, not some pre-determined package. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also going to go out on a limb and predict that if a room only rate is offered it will ONLY be available as a non-refundable deposit fare. RCG seems to want to move EVERYTHING to NRD that they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, particularly since many of these benefits are the same perks we receive when we book with the Cruise TA we always uses for cruises! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - only for Travel Agents. There are 7 webinars between Tomorrow and Friday. After the Travel Agents have all gotten the details the new pricing structure / brand campaign will be launched to the public - assuming early next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sanger727 Posted November 10, 2020 #14 Share Posted November 10, 2020 For years there have been people wanting tips included in cruise pricing. Personally I am a fan if the price initially shown for a cruise is the ‘inclusive’ price. It’s frustrating to price out a cruise only to get a page or two in and have price jump up $500-$1000 per person. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suenneil Posted November 10, 2020 #15 Share Posted November 10, 2020 according to the website this doesnt apply to the UK or not yet, again we are discriminated against. Need a good US agent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Life Buoy Posted November 10, 2020 #20 Share Posted November 10, 2020 We've been waiting a long time to resume cruising, so we can wait a little while for the details of the all-inclusive program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However there are apparently two different versions at two price points ($30 and $60pp/pd) and still NRD and refundable options.
