guardcoach Posted August 25, 2009 #1 Share Posted August 25, 2009 How does this work? I just noticed they dropped the price of the cruise I will be leaving on in a 2 weeks. I booked directly with RCI - is it possible to get it matched? I am new to all of this. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madforcruising Posted August 25, 2009 #4 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Hi, Yes you just phone RCI and they'll apply the new price. Lorraine That is, as it´s Tuesday, unless it´s a Tuesday sale for new bookings only;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinfanatic Posted August 25, 2009 #5 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Thanks on the phone with them now. Probably for new bookings only. The Majesty has Tuesday sales for your date today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guardcoach Posted August 25, 2009 Author #6 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Yeah, it was a Tuesday sale. So do I assume if it's still on sale tomorrow that I can call in and get a price drop or am I pushing it. Their even offereing OBC for the same cruise if you book thru Expedia today.

frenchie807 Posted August 25, 2009 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2009 GuardCoach, Were you able to get the price difference for the cruise??? Let me know! I am in the same boat and it is now $60 cheaper for an even better cabin and because it is always a "tuesday sales event" they can't do anything.

guardcoach Posted August 25, 2009 Author #8 Share Posted August 25, 2009 nope! But if you read this thread http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=968919 Apparently someone was able to get the price reduced.... what do you guys think? worth a try?

FishOn55 Posted August 26, 2009 #9 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Good luck in trying to change cabins. I am sailing on 9/10 and want to PAY the difference to sail in a balcony cabin rather than the oceanview I now have booked. After calling Customer Service and Crown and Anchor I was told by both parties that the rate was for new bookings only. (this happened on last Tuesday) On Thursday I was still fuming and emailed my thoughts to rccl customer service. I finally received an email answer today with pretty much the same answer as before. NO! I don't understand. I am asking to pay them more- not asking for a refund or comp ungrade. There are still plenty of balconies available for this sailing. Any thoughts from experienced cc members on how I might be able to get this resolved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen them still posted into the evening.... If it's a Sales Event price, it will say so by the "Select" button in your cabin category. If they have a lower price that's not a Sales Event special, you can call them and get your priced dropped any time. And guardcoach... it's only worth giving getting a price drop to match the Sales Event price a try if you like banging you head against the wall... they won't do it...

newtravelers Posted August 26, 2009 #13 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I just called. You can get the drop, depends on what you bought, etc. She said we could drop price, but no gauranteee on what room we get. Or upgrade to an oceanview but up to them to assign where. I can't decide either. You should call them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guardcoach Posted August 26, 2009 Author #18 Share Posted August 26, 2009 its bared in the thread but someone apparently called and called until she got an upgrade but the price was due to the Tuesday sale price. I honestly don't want it dropped I just want a better room. Of course this is my first time saling with RCCL so I probalby have no pull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
