lizord Posted August 1, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Just went to check on my August 22nd Gem pricing to find no trace of it on the NCL site for Gem or the more likely-to-sail Encore. No idea why they would do this, it's not like these sailings were selling out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaCruiser39 Posted August 1, 2021 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2021 (edited) Yup, same thing for my August 15th on the Gem. I didn't get the dreaded "your cruise is on hold" screen but I'm still worried after they pulled it from the site (at least on the booking end).

mrlevin Posted August 1, 2021 #3 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Could be sold out to the level they want to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaftingJeremy Posted August 1, 2021 #4 Share Posted August 1, 2021 It is Sunday. They seem to have technical issue just about every weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davencl Posted August 1, 2021 #5 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Sold out and have been for awhile. Sailing at 60 percent capacity max. Occasionally opens up when someone cancels... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizord Posted August 1, 2021 Author #6 Share Posted August 1, 2021 2 minutes ago, BermudaBound2014 said: This is incorrect for the Gem. No business reduces prices on sold out items. Ncl just reduced prices again last night for all august and September Gem sailings. I can book gem right now…. interior $379 ocean view $450 balcony $499 I do agree that encore in Alaska seems to be selling well for the month of august, but September encore prices are starting the expected decline. The ships are available to book right now, just not on NcL.com. For some reason their website takes a break on the weekends. Prices just went down today, too bad I booked yesterday. Probably going to call and get an upgrade to a balcony tomorrow, maybe I'd be better off putting in a bid. I really don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best I can tell, the gem is no where near 60%. I would recommend holding off giving NcL additional funds at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BermudaBound2014 Posted August 1, 2021 #8 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Just now, davencl said: Yes you are 100% correct. When someone cancels all of a sudden there is 40% availability and tons of rooms. That's why the August sailings come and go. Has nothing to do with the weekends. Are you talking the gem or encore?

I'm still seeing the pricing I booked under which is as follows: Inside: $399 OV: $449 B: $650. And checking all the sailings in Aug and September, my Aug 22nd is still the cheapest. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I'm familiar with that one, never seen an agent discount that much. Until NCL's pricing comes down I think I'm out of luck with calling for an upgrade. Thanks for the help, I knew these Gem sailings weren't "At Capacity" or whatever... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
