VentureMan_2000 Posted June 13 #5 Share Posted June 13 Details on the $271 price... sounds like a casino offer... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haoie Posted June 13 #6 Share Posted June 13 Are you asking if $38 a night per person is a good price?? I don't think there's a motel anywhere that's that cheap. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted June 13 #7 Share Posted June 13 You are kidding, right? Of course it is a good offer. Food, entertainment, cabin serviced everyday. Where can you go for a week nowadays for that price. Food alone would probably cost that eating at restaurants. Doesn't matter if it is an "older" ship. Sometimes older is better! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlawrence01 Posted June 13 #8 Share Posted June 13 That looks like a casino offer. The shame is that you could have gotten the same rate on an 8 or 12 day cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare nydney1 Posted June 13 #9 Share Posted June 13 It’s definitely cheaper than any hotel, but I would ask for more info. What ship What ports What type of room At the end of the day you have to decide if it is in your budget. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRUZFINDER Posted June 13 #10 Share Posted June 13 A good price??? It's an unbelievable price!!! Additional details would be greatly appreciated. A little voice in my head keeps repeating, "if it sounds too good to be true..." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinklucky61 Posted June 13 #13 Share Posted June 13 Even if that price doesn't include port, taxes and gratuities, it's a good price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WendyVF Posted June 13 #14 Share Posted June 13 My guess would be it's during the height of hurricane season. It's a great deal as long as you understand the risks. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 7 day cruise to nowhere would not be cool to me...so i avoid it... but some people are fine with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mz-s Posted June 13 #16 Share Posted June 13 I bet they'd do $270. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukeASUGirl Posted June 13 #17 Share Posted June 13 Room, food, entertainment, and transportation to multiple ports all for $38/day. You can't even find that deal on land. Food alone would run you more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike45LC Posted June 14 #18 Share Posted June 14 $271. Plus taxes, port charges. Plus gratuities. Plus internet. Plus beverages. But a great starting price! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlawrence01 Posted June 14 #19 Share Posted June 14 I booked an 8 day Southern Caribbean cruise on Carnival Magic for two people: Cruise fare: $200 Taxes and fees. $340 Gratuities $256 Less OBC: -$200 Total $596 or $298 per person No internet or drink packages as we need neither. That is a casino rate and was a nice add-on to a cruise from the week before on the Regal Princess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly333 Posted June 14 #22 Share Posted June 14 Lol compared to paying full price rates, of course it's a very good rate for 7 days. Like other curious which ship but if they offered me a cruise 271 x 2 I assume, I'm solo, I'd grab it. People post prices and as a solo I never know if they mean that's the real price or per person. I can remember the olden pre covid days. Cheapest during hurricane I'd see was like 299, usually 399 per person at the top of hurricane season around labor day. I always jumped on it. Now I dont see as big of a difference during hurricane season as before covid. I think people have forgotten how ports can get missed. I personally dontd care if it's just a same ole Caribbean. I'd do it in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJSailors Posted June 15 #23 Share Posted June 15 @cruisingrightnow Sounds like a cheap rate. Remember,you get what you pay for! 🙄 MJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare nydney1 Posted June 15 #24 Share Posted June 15 To me that’s a good deal, but I don’t get casino rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missholly24 Posted July 8 #25 Share Posted July 8 Inside cabin on a small ship? I wouldn't go. But if you are a seasoned cruiser and understand what you are getting into then do you. I personally spend a ton on airfare getting to a cruise and have limited PTO so I spend more. I only do balcony or better and not old ships. Depends on your preference. Few hundred dollars isn't a big deal with everything considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
