cynt Posted November 8, 2023 #26 Share Posted November 8, 2023 (edited) I've been waiting on this sale. I'm hoping the UDP goes down on my Quantum 7 night sailing, $326pp currently. 3 day specialty dining $131. Edited November 8, 2023 by cynt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything's relative and having 2 or 8 people in your party matters just going by per head price but after seeing the $3000+ prices for both beach and OTW cabanas for a long time, they were both under $2000 for my 10/25 Allure cruise. I didn't save the info but I think it was like $1400ish for beach and $1750ish for OTW. That sale seemed to only include cruises that were closer to sailing. The prices for my March-July Wonder cruises were not on sale. EDIT: I'm sure it was clear but this was for CocoCay. Our original itinerary actually did have Labadee (changed due to weather) but no sale on Labadee. Edited November 8, 2023 by OCSC Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did this in September and now we can just watch the pricing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when the prices start at $3000, no discount is going to reach my "worth it" price. They'd have to offer a 95% discount. 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have to offer a 95% discount. As I said, everything's relative. Many people will see value in paying $200ish pp (for a party of eight) for one of those cabanas, especially when it has recently cost far more than that just to access the Beach Club. I'm frugal and enjoy CocoCay without paying anything except tips for my voucher drinks, but having been treated to each of those cabanas once by a generous family member, we had an amazing experience both times (especially the OTW). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcohol beverage packages went up from $100 to $105/day reg price for my cruise, so I suspect a lot of that is going on this last week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mawamw Posted November 8, 2023 #36 Share Posted November 8, 2023 17 hours ago, HaveWeMetYet said: It says up to 55 percent. Very few beverage or dining packages will see that, in fact, probably none. 55 percent will be photo package, internet, and private island activities like jet ski and zipline. I hope so because I want to book the Dragons Breath zipline at Labadee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that they will raise the price 60% so that they can lower it 55%. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you're exaggerating to make a point but more likely the majority of things will be far less than 55% off just like other sales that say "up to 35% off" or whatever but many are only 10-20% off. They don't need to be THAT deceptive... although they could be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need to be THAT deceptive... although they could be. My SIL an her husband just bought the DBP for $66 a few weeks ago for a cruise we have booked in March. About a week after they bought, the price went up to $100 with a BOGO 50% off sale. So that means the new price is still $9 more than what they paid even though they're saving 50% on one package. I envision RCI's sales tactics to be similar to this Scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some I have been tracking for over a year. When I checked and marked them down in my spreadsheet everything was the same as it was prior to all previous sales with the exception of the internet. There was a very small increase in internet pricing in on the 2024 sailings. 2023 sailings were untouched. We just have until tomorrow to wait and find out. We'll see how it goes.

I'm sure things won't be as bad as I (semi-sarcastically) predicted. I've just become cynical to their pricing shenanigans. Reducing cabin service and then raising the cost of it really has me irked. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too, we’ve had three cruises this year and the first two we were in a suite so unaffected by the change. The last one was on Navigator in August in an OV cabin with once daily service. Our cabin steward was amazing and went out of his way repeatedly for us. I do t expect that to be consistently repeated. We’ve got two weeks in December in standard balcony cabins. We’ll see how it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Newcruiser215 Posted November 9, 2023 #45 Share Posted November 9, 2023 (edited) Oddly enough, many of the items in my cruise planner are noticeably cheaper than yesterday. Refreshment package is now 23.99/pp-pd vs 33.99 yesterday. All specialty lunch is 40% off. I wonder if they’ve already started the sale.

Sunshine3601 Posted November 9, 2023 #46 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I am seeing some sale items for cococay on the app but not letting me book them. Hideaway sale for $30.99, beach club $98, jet ski $59 pp, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#1packerfan Posted November 9, 2023 #47 Share Posted November 9, 2023 I just redid an excursion in Roatan for $20 pp less than what I originally paid. Also some other excursions I was watching are cheaper as well. Unfortunately, the bev package is still the same b0go 50% off. I am still hoping they go down more but we'll see. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcgrumpy Posted November 9, 2023 #48 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Prices for my September Utopia cruise have dropped since this morning. Drink Package was $91.99 earlier today, now it's $85.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SUESEABE Posted November 9, 2023 #49 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Checked cruise planner and some price drop from yesterday. Beverage package $69.99. Refreshment package $23.99 on Radiance of the Seas March 2024 cruise. Do you think it'll go lower? I should probably just grab it at this price...

It was at $216 for a long time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
