shayelle Posted February 23, 2008 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2008 We leave on our cruise in 2 weeks. We booked a guarantee balcony about 6 weeks ago. In the last 2 days it has dropped $450 per person! I called my travel agent this morning (who is on a cruise right now) and she got it taken care of for me. That is going to go a long way towards paying our sea pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veryhotred Posted February 23, 2008 #13 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I have never seen a balcony guarantee, how do people find those?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising89143 Posted February 23, 2008 #14 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Congrats on the price drop. RCI is very good about this. Had the same thing happen back in November. Booked the Navigator three weeks out and the price dropped another $720.00 a week after booking. RCI took care of it with one phone call.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted February 23, 2008 #15 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I have never seen a balcony guarantee, how do people find those?? Just keep watching. They don't offer guarantees on all cruises or at all times or in all categories. They usually do that when they have one category that isn't selling well OR if the whole sailing isn't selling as well as they hoped. It's also more common to see them after final payment date when they are trying to fill up the ship. I've had cruises where they've never offered any guarantee categories, others where they only offered them in inside or oceanview categories at the last minute, and then there's my Alaska cruise in May where at various points in the last 6 months they've offered inside, oceanview, balcony, and suite guarantees.

DKane Posted February 23, 2008 #16 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I have never seen a balcony guarantee, how do people find those?? I upgraded my inside cabin to a balcony guarantee this morning after noting the price drop on rccl's website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecruisers723 Posted February 23, 2008 #17 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Every time I check my sailing on the Sovereign it is going up. UrrrrrggggYou are lucky. Have a great crusie. We booked our 2/15/08 Sovereign cruise around Jan. 1st. I don't think we could have got a refund if it did go down since it was already paid in full and it was to the point of being non-cancellable. But, we kept checking the price just in case out of curiosity and it never did go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrioticgirl Posted February 24, 2008 #18 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The March 22nd sailing of Serenade had a major price drop yesterday on guarantee cabins, too..... inside went down to $599pp, OV to $699pp, and Balcony to $899pp. There seems to be a good selection of cabins still available in the regular inventory, too.... so a guarantee might just snag a pretty nice location.
