Rare OceanCruise Posted September 27, 2004 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2004 With all the hurricanes in Florida and the Caribbean, have bookings slowed for next summer as compared to past years? I am hoping that prices will drop if bookings aren't brisk now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkt2cruz Posted September 28, 2004 #2 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Not at all! In fact, bookings are way up for next year! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmarch@islc.net Posted September 28, 2004 #3 Share Posted September 28, 2004 Have you noticed a decrease in Celebrity sales? I don't get too many "deals" sent over on the internet any more, it's all the lines but Celebrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springtxbill Posted September 28, 2004 #4 Share Posted September 28, 2004 I would think the demand for cruises next year will be very great. There are thousands of people with 50% off certificates they have picked up the last couple of months and must use next year.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkt2cruz Posted September 29, 2004 #5 Share Posted September 29, 2004 Actually Celebrity is having a banner year for sales....and prices are going higher and higher....especially for Alaska next year and Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akissa Posted September 29, 2004 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2004 I'm just a fellow cruiser just wanting to ask the travel agents something. [color=#0000ff] Our TA explained that they are a 10% agency and that they're a key account for Celebrity and Royal Caribbean. They are agents from Cruise Only, the biggest cruise agent out there. This is why they can offer at such lower prices.[/color] [color=#0000ff][/color] [color=#0000ff]What is a 10% agency and is that how they offer lower prices?? I mean is this all true?[/color] [color=#0000ff][/color] [color=#0000ff][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkt2cruz Posted September 30, 2004 #7 Share Posted September 30, 2004 Maybe they are in the top 10%. Our agency is a key account, as well. There are only a few agencies out there that have special pricing because of that. Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
