Thanks for the info! One really dumb question though...where on the Viking site do I enter the MCS23 code? Edit - Figured it out...It was right in front of my face on the site and I missed somehow!

zelker Posted July 19, 2023 #803 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Ran across what I "believe" is a new promo code today on a TA's site so suspect it will be forthcoming from Viking shortly ... at least that's what I've experienced in the last few months. It's ACU23 and gives you a discounted rate and free air. I checked it out on the November 23 and January 24 Hawaii+Polynesia itinerary (the only ones I'm currently watching) and it worked on both. Maybe this will take the place of SUM23 when it expires at the end of July (assuming they don't extend it yet again). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With they'd ditch the free air fares and cut the cruise price down even more. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but we're not allowed to share travel agent website or names on CruiseCritic. But you don't need to go to a specific TA's site to take advantage of a promo code. Just go to the Viking site, select the cruise you're interested in, then click on Price and Build and there's a place to enter a promo code on that page. I've found that some codes mentioned on this thread don't work for every single itinerary so I just keep trying them until I find one that works. Good luck! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's offering cabin discounts and Free Airfare. Christmas and New Year's down under. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like they are doing a lot of these "free" airfare promotions these days. (Of course free air isn't really free so to speak). Wondering if they are doing something with air contracts that motivates them to do so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deec Posted July 24, 2023 #815 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) We did that last year for our Antarctic trip and the seats disappeared so keep an eye on the flights. Also what we thought would be "premium" economy on Delta was only Delta Comfort, but still a good price! It was just after Christmas so a VERY busy time to fly. I bet you will have no issues.

We are booked through United via Houston. They have that small middle section of the plane for whatever they call their premium economy. So far there are only 6 people in that section for the flight down. On the way back, we are the only seats taken in that section.

librarylady19 Posted July 24, 2023 #817 Share Posted July 24, 2023 And sometimes the airlines change plane types and you won’t get the class of seats you expected. We wanted to fly KLM’s new premium economy to Amsterdam, but it is not yet on all their planes as be aware that can always happen.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiCruzr Posted July 24, 2023 #818 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Just found this. Great thread! Question: Can I apply a Promo Code to an existing reservation and still get the discount (especially for air)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s best to call Viking or your TA and inquiry about your specific booking. Edited July 24, 2023 by sting1st Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typically I find that EBD (Early Booking Discount) does nothing but bring up the current promotion that everyone gets when going to the website. If you remove it, nothing changes.
