Black Friday or a Cyber Monday Deals

[xin3]

I am cruising in spring ‘25. I want to buy the internet package as one of my daughter will be doing some school work. I read on here that sometimes RCCL will run sales on those things on Black Friday or a cyber Monday. My question is-how do I find these/am alerted to these/ etc.?

 

Where can I look to find these deals and if someone has done it before, what are the steps to get the deals? 
 

THANK YOU!!!

Look on the app or the cruise planner

The Black Friday sale has been ongoing for a week now.

I doubt internet is available for purchase spring of 2025. .. at least not mine.

 

OP you will have to wait for black friday next year imo.

Yeah I just checked. Nada for me. Oh well, I can keep an eye out for any sale until then.

I misread that originally. I thought you wanted to buy the alcoholic beverage package. I thought "that's an interesting reason to need a drink" 😂

My black Friday presale only shows internet discount for a January cruise - $18/per device per day. Nothing for summer - same prices at $21/per device per day.

The black friday internet deal posters have said is if you want the 3 or 4 devices. Not for just 1 device.

Yes I was quoting the starting price for the first device.  It's all the same prices since before the black friday "sale" - I have been watching 1 person 3 devices for months now and prices have not gone down with the "sale" for any cruise except my January one. The January cruise has been hovering at $20 (for the first device) and now it's $18.  Last Year this was starting at $14.

I tried to book a spa treatment for 30% off on a Jan sailing. $103 was the listed price. But when I entered my credit card info the price popped up as $148. Add gratuity it was in the $170 range.   I called customer service but they could not explain the price difference.    Does this happen with other sales?

Was the $103 after a BOGO50 or some such?  They advertise the cost after the discount.  

 

$148 + (148/2) = 222 for two people, so 111 each if you buy 2.  But if you only get 1, its 148.

 

Numbers aren't exact, but close.

So glad I saw this,,, We are on Freedom July 2024.  I was only going to book the water park for the 3 GK and one adult at the $170 pp I have been seeing.  Got all 7 of us in for same price !

That's the price of the beach bed rentals for my February sailing 🙄

The spa price says from $103 advertised as 30% off  No BOGO mentioned.    That’s 30% from $148. But it wouldn’t give me that price when I tried to reserve a time.  So I’m wondering if different time slots have the discount where others don’t?  Or does it show up as on board credit.  Princess does that.  I’ll book an excursion, pay full price but they apply 10% to OBC.

I have found different time slots have different prices and there may only be one time that actually is that discounted price.  It has happened to me and I checked every single time slot and never found one at the offered discount.  Kind of like the lottery scratch off where it says they can still sell tickets even if the main prize has already been won....

[sailaway2joy]

Thanks. That’s sneaky!  I’ll just pass for now and hope for a sale on board.

[LeeW]

Port days are cheaper.

[sailaway2joy]

I’ll check that out. Thanks.

The only spa appointments fully discounted on my sailing are on embarkation day. Otherwise it varies based on sea or port day.
