Level six Posted April 29, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I keep getting emails about private sales. Some of the prices come up right, but others are thousands of dollars more. Is anyone else having that problem? Yes, I am signed into site. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florida_gal_50 Posted April 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Yup, have that problem all the time. I have to ask. There is a large online cruise retailer that I can see my private fares on. I don’t even sign in there. I guess our fares are too private to show to us 😛. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one more comment, hal or your travel professional “should” be able to see them. I don’t know why we can’t. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Andi Land Posted April 29, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I can’t see my private fares or my casino offers. Neither of them are coming up for me anymore. I don’t know what changed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syesmar Posted April 29, 2023 #7 Share Posted April 29, 2023 @Level six and @Andi Land I have no idea why, but even though I am the one who always handles our travel arrangements, often I don’t see the price unless I am signed into my husband’s account. Signing into mine gives a different price that can sometimes be in the hundreds of dollars. The Mariner Society might be able to help you. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I have to sign in to see the prices, but on two cruises that I really want ($3000 less)the price advertised doesn't come up when I try to book........at least I am glad it is not just me, or something I am doing wrong.

I have even spoken with the Mariner Society about it but there’s no explanation, just the suggestion to log into both and also check mailers and e-mail to ensure the best prices.

The private sales are good only for the person (and companion) whose Mariner no. is shown at the top of the notice. Every time I log into HAL, my husband's account is brought up, but the notice is under my number. Yet HAL doesn't recognize my name and no., so I can't see the price. Our TA can see it, however. I think my problem is that one of HAL's software does not recognize my married name. In short, the special price is directed only to one party. It is not going to show up in both parties' accounts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the email with the private sale is to me(not a casino offer). As I said, I can get most of the advertised prices (yes, I did mock bookings on many to see) but not the two that I do want to book. It just seems like false advertising to me really. I get that it is probably a software problem and I might call them to see, but, if they send me an email with a certain price, I expect to be able to get that price when I book the cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a Campaign ID number or something similar at the bottom of the e-mail where a TA, PCC or HAL rep should be able to look up and confirm the fare. (FWIW, a little different issue, but I have taken screen shots of prices online and it came in handy when a rep couldn’t see it.) Having said that, it’s indeed annoying. I just did the same thing, went to the Private Sale e-mail I recently received, logged in and while I copied and pasted the link and could see the sale prices on the first page and under “More Dates and Fares,” clicking any other link to continue lost the private fare. Who wants to call in every time they want to ask questions or confirm a fare? Good luck! Edited April 29, 2023 by syesmar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
