My Lucky Day

[maria1122]

Today I booked a last minute cruise, I was able to get a Jr.Suite Center hump and a $600 OBC from my TA. Usually the center hump is booked way in advance. Someone must have cancelled . Lucky me.

I only got $50 for voyager .... and then they wound up sending me a store card for that amount after the cruise.

 

lol, everyone did better than me.

For all asking - It is a TA OBC

[brwneyez424]

$600 OBC..who is this TA....i never heard of a 600 OBC... i need them...how much did you pay for the cruise?

[pepsicruiser]

If you check RCCL website it's a $2990pp I think so thats a lot. But I guess because its a summer cruise its typical. I went on same cruise but in Sept 2006 and was in a Grand Suite for $1200pp for 9 days a big difference yikes.

[brwneyez424]

Well I went onto one of the sites I use to compare cruise prices to check on this sailing... and all the quotes I got back were giving between 400 and 600 in OBC for this.

[veryhotred]

I would still like to know what cruise this is, how long, etc and how they got the OBC???

One of her first quotes was "the explorer on July 17th". It's a 9 night cruise from Bayonne. There are TAs that base there OBC $ on the total cost of the cruise and since this is a costly trip so goes the OBC. Or possibly the TA has done much business with this client before so upped the OBC.

I would like to know that too. :D

[ewheelock]

I think that ta's are allowed by RCI to give a percentage of the cruise back as obc in increments of $20.00 buy that does not include the non-refundable portion of the cruise.

 

If I am wrong it is because that is what my ta told me! Are there any ta's out there that can let me know it that is true?
