We called our TA...they were not aware of the Navigator being open for booking out of Los Angeles.

Our TA contacted RCCL...who said "Yes, you can book now."  We were prepared to book a B3B, and had our FCC's ready for deposits........................then they tell us that the 7 night, November 19th sailing, for a JS was $4,300...yikes!  We decided not to book...we'll wait.

 

Note: We also inquired about whether or not the Navigator will sail from Florida to California with or without passengers......RCCL rep said there's no information on that yet.

Great prices for 3/18 and 3/25 sailings. Are they even real or price mistake?

 

Update: I’ve  booked but looking at my reservation it states Voyage Canceled: We’re sorry, but your voyage has been canceled. Keep an eye out for an email with details, and contact us or your travel agent if you have questions.

I booked two and went into my account to look at them and they say the same thing.  RCCL IT strikes again.

Looking at 3 and 4 night in Jan for 2B balcony and refundable deposit adds $640 to each reservation. For the 3 night that's more than the price of the reservation. I don't want to book refundable deposits but that amount is ridiculous IMHO.

Odyssey has studio balconies.  Refundable was $1,800 more.  I booked NRD (pre-pandemic).

We're booked for September. Hurricanes be damned.

There is a Kicker NRD that knocks $400 off the price right now. I ran into this just recently on another booked cruise too. It is like a Flash Sale. There is no balcony discount, but the price with NRD is reduced. The price difference on refundable is so ridiculous, (and with prices rising) that we have given up.

I am another who saw those (low) prices on 3/18 and 3/25 last night. And refundable deposit. However, I decided to wait until morning until I could call my TA and then this morning the prices look very different. However, it looks like I didn't miss out on a deal since Royal canceled your bookings. 
 

It has been awhile since I sailed Royal, but am I correct that no perks are included with the sailing? That's actually why I thought the low fare was valid -- since there were no perks included. We are also booked on Discovery Princess same month and the price was less than these Royal cruises, but with full perks. 
 

We will have to pass for now.

What perks are you referring to?

Included in the Princess pricing are premier beverage package, unlimited WiFi, and gratuities. 
 

When I priced out Navigator this morning, I couldn't find that similar perks were included, though the price ended up being very close to Princess. Maybe I missed something? In fact, the Navigator deposit was NRD and Princess is refundable. 
 

I realize they are very different experiences. But as we are not interested in Flowriders or water slides, it was easy for us to decide which way to go. If we were taking our grandchildren, we would probably make a different decision.

Ah.  Yeah Royal never bundles drink packages or wifi into the price.

RC has never included those in their pricing. Celebrity now is including the CBP, gratuities and WiFi in their pricing. They call in Always Included.

Pricing is crazy, even on an interior for 7 days...I looked at the Nov 19th, and I’m paying less on a 9, 16, 10, and 8 day on the Ovation next year. Also my price on the NZ 11 day is only $40 more. The Ovation are all in virtual balcony cabins. No way, as a solo, would I pay $2100+ for a 7 nt. to Mexico. Yikes!

[ONECRUISER]

When looked last nite minutes after release the 7n March Cruises 4 passengers in 2BD/2BA Aft Grand Suite was only $3200. Looks like prices Gone up/Fixed, lot higher now. Same Cabin 10hrs later $10,666 (w/discounts).

I think the cancellation  verbiage was an error as now it’s booked and I can make cruise planner purchases.
