chereya Posted January 9 #1 Share Posted January 9 I try to regularly check my bookings for price drops. Some days I have seen prices drop by a couple hundred dollars on the same day. Today I was able to get a price adjustment on my GTY suite for a May 2024 Alaska sailing and shaved off just about $1000. If you haven't passed your final payment date yet, definitely check for savings! Good luck! 👍 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthStarStateCruiser Posted January 9 #2 Share Posted January 9 Great advice. Although, for folks who booked AI prior to the change where gratuities were removed from the offering, a price drop may net a price increase after factoring in the gratuities. Something to be aware of. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomcruiser1234 Posted January 9 #3 Share Posted January 9 Yes. Price can drop and it’s well worth watching. It can be tricky on cruises that had the perks but with recent changes those benefits like gratuity added i think are long gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted January 9 #4 Share Posted January 9 Yes, any changes to a booking will result in loss of perks related to the original booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something to be aware of. I’ll randomly do a mock booking on my SS on Beyond but it’s always been more expensive. Even after they took away grats and obc 🙄 No math needed lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mauidiver Posted January 9 #6 Share Posted January 9 (edited) My problem is that we book SV rooms, which are always sold out quickly (especially on E class ships). Edited January 9 by Mauidiver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare blueslily Posted January 9 #7 Share Posted January 9 What are the options if you are past final payment and there is a price drop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushkin Posted January 11 #8 Share Posted January 11 Thanks for the tip! Our Panama Canal cruise was just reduced by $2000 - lost $200 in OBC. We didn't have AI so no loss there. Gotta love CC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just went through this. Officially, you're SOL. Practically, you may call and express your displeasure and request some kind of adjustment. We were rebooked with a cabin upgrade, but had to fight to keep OBC and gratuities on the rebooking. From what others have shared on this board, it sounds like we were lucky. You may very well get nothing. Edited January 11 by Winemaker_1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
