Why???

Why would a promenade cabin for a cruise in Dec. 2010 not be available online for booking? Any idea?

[RetireeWannabee]

um, because it was available and then someone booked it?

1. They are sold out.

2. You are putting in more than two passengers when you search for a cabin.

That seems a little odd to me that every promenade cabin is book that far in advance!

1. Which week in December?

 

2. Travel agencies could be holding the space.

 

3. Are you using just "two" passengers when you search?

If you are talking about 12/12/10 the prices are almost 1/2 of the cost of the next cruise so I'd say people grabbed those cabins quick as the prices were great for a 7 day cruise.

Keep checking. Availability changes almost every day. If you checked Saturday night, all cabins are "sold out." They are upgrading their web site.

Check on other sites... the cabins may be available but an agent has them. Oftentimes agents have blocks of rooms reserved for their customers.

Call and find out what's available or go thru a travel agent. When I booked our cruise last year we wanted a particular cabin. According to the website only a few were available, when I went thru our TA MANY more were available. Apparently the RCCL website only shows a few at a time and they can vary from day to day or week to week.

Glad I could help!

Not really (tho little surprises me at this point in life). I also was thinking along the Group lines, and Proms are a relatively new cabin type, so I'd grab em for a group just because they are Different.

:confused::confused: Would help if you mention the ship and the itinerary, please.

I guess we did good booking 15 people for that cruise and a lower price!:)

:confused: If you are looking at the Dec. 12'10 --- Caribbean cruises out of Florida

there are tons of Promenade Cabins available. I just checked another

online site that shows available cabins on any ship --- are you dealing

with a TA or calling RCCL directly ??? Look at the deck plans - online -

and find some cabins you would consider --- then go to the RCCL site

and do a "dummy booking" to see if you can actually book that cabin.

If it's available --- put a "courtesy hold" on it and contact your TA or

call RCCL directly and book.

Hello. What website shows all available cabins on any ship?

Hello. What website shows all available cabins on any ship?

I'm not sure that ANY website shows all available cabins but TA's can get that info......at least that's what we were told. When you log onto the RCCL website and check the rooms available, you'll only be shown 4-7 (or so) at a time. A few days later it might show others added. Your agent can check with RCCL to determine exactly what is available.

I would like to know also. I saw it a few days ago on the post and thought I saved it to "my favorites" in Explorer. Went there today. Its gone :mad: Tried a search but can't find it.

Travelocity shows all available cabins

[PrincesScuba]

Travelocity shows all available cabins

 

No, it doesn't, not by a long shot.

 

It does show quite a few more than Royal Caribbean's own site does, but unless it shows a lot more on its Dutch site than it does in other countries, it shows far from "all" available cabins.

That week is always one of the very cheapest of the year. It's the last cruise before Christmas, and few people are available to cruise or want to cruise then. Families with school-age kids are not likely to have them miss a full week of school, December 12 through 19, when they are probably out of school December 23 - January 4.

 

You think that prices JUMP from 12/12-12/19 to 12/19-12/26?

 

Look at 12/26 - 1/2!!!!!!!!!! :eek:
