ludde Posted August 27, 2021 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2021 (edited) The pricing for solo reservations doesn't make sense on the Harmony 24th of October cruise from Barcelona (on the Spanish website). 1 balcony guarantee room for 2 persons: €649 per person, €1298 in total. 2 balcony guarantee rooms for 1 person each : €549 per person, €1098 in total. How can 2 rooms be cheaper than 1 room? Am I missing something? Edited: wrong date Edited August 27, 2021 by ludde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been some pricing glitches in the past and O class solos at 100% supplement this fall seems to be the norm. There may also be some very underhanded things at play here - like RCI wanting to claim a certain occupancy rate (for shareholders) and thus incentivizing filling cabins that way.

Edited: wrong date I booked for Dec Oasis 2 assigned connecting balcony cabins as singles for the same price as booking one double occupancy balcony cabin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The posters' pricing in Euros indicates an out of the US booking which may not have that restriction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted August 27, 2021 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I wish this were the case on my upcoming cruise. I see this as a way to get more points. Book two cabins at the solo rate for less money than the double rate. You'll each get double points for the sailing. If you book before 9/30/21, you'll get 4X points.

GateGuardian Posted August 27, 2021 #9 Share Posted August 27, 2021 I booked Oasis and Odyssey for December with 0% supplement rate on a balcony in December. MSC also has a similar deal going on, but with drinks and wifi included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So perhaps they only allow a low number of solo gtys per sailing. Edited August 27, 2021 by ludde 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kptbylorraine Posted August 27, 2021 #11 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Also working for Anthem December 24. My kids moved from single studio balcony to large balcony for the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
