Every cruise is different even if it goes to the same ports. Sometimes port fees and taxes are applied per person, other times it is by the ship so depending on the number of passengers on the ship it can vary. In all the notifications that I received there was not one for Utopia. Either it was omitted or more likely they already factored in the new taxes as Utopia just went on sale, they have know about this tax increase for a while now.

cello56 Posted July 23, 2023 #109 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Very strange! I got the price increase email with a listing of our upcoming cruise on Adventure next March. Taxes are going up $9 in total. Here is the strange part - WE ARE NOT GOING TO ANY BAHAMAS PORTS! Cruise goes to Haiti, D.R., St. Thomas and St. Croix! Why did we get the email and why the Bahama tax increase on a cruise that does not sail to the Bahamas? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare perfect match Posted July 23, 2023 #111 Share Posted July 23, 2023 My email for our Allure cruise in April going to Coco Cay and Nassau shows the taxes and fees going down by a total of $16.96. However, when I look at my current balance due on the website there is no drop showing in the price there.🤷♀️🫤 Should be interesting to see how this plays out.

It would seem they are not going strictly in date order based on some people reporting adjustments for cruises sailing several months later than others for whom those cruisers have not yet received their adjustments.

Thank you for that info, Ken.It’s not a whole lot of money for us so I’m not going to drive myself crazy looking but I will check periodically. The new rate already shows up when doing a dummy booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
