Sailing out of Galveston - Price drops?

[liketocruise2]

Has anyone sailing out of Galveston TX ever had price drops? Maybe if the ships usually sail full, prices will rarely drop. Hope that's not the case.

Once, .... last January, but no other times. Well, first time I didnt know I could get a price drop and I talked to many who paid a lot less than we did, learned that time.

 

Only once since then. One of my Sept cruises is now over $800 for 1A for the Eastern on Conquest, the other week is filling up and slowly going up not down after final payment. ....

 

... unless there is a hurricane, looks like prices are moving up.

I'm leaving Thursday out of Galveston...booked it in January and have been watching the prices since then...never went down, in fact, they have gone up. I didn't do early saver, so not a big deal for me. I am going on the exact same cruise in November and taking my kids with me. I am paying half the price in November that I paid for this same cruise next Thursday. I think it all depends on when you sail....summer is busy, so it seems the prices stay pretty steadily higher.
