FionaMG got a reaction from WAAAYTOOO in BLACK FRIDAY
It's been $131.99 on my upcoming cruise forever, hasn't budged a cent.
However, the UDP, which has been oscillating between two different prices also forever, dropped considerably.

Us too, although I have to admit DH only really gets to use it when I'm in the gym. 😂

So did we (note past tense). Our strategy was always "cheapest with a window". That would sometimes be an OV and sometimes a promenade view, on the ships that have them.
Then two things happened... one, we hit D, which meant a decent discount on balcony cabins and, two, covid brought prices tumbling down. On the four cruises we have done since the restart, the cheapest with a window has always been a balcony cabin.
Now, when I booked our upcoming cruise, that no longer held true, but when I said to DH I was reverting to booking a window cabin instead of a balcony he said no way, he wanted a window that he could open for fresh air, which obviously implies a balcony, so our past strategy has gone straight out of said open window! 😂
And in a weird twist of fate, if I were to book today instead of when I did, the cheapest with a window would indeed be a balcony cabin (except at twice the price in comparison to when we booked!) 😬

FionaMG got a reaction from jbrinkm in BLACK FRIDAY
Somebody over on CC reported getting it for $12 so, like everything else, it's ship/sailing dependent. I see it at $31 for both of my sailings.

FionaMG reacted to Jolly Ogre in black friday sales!! what did you get??
Not bad but not that good either.
My banner said up to 55% off, but when I go to the things that I want to book it is 30%-35% off. Still saved $256.
This is for my 2024 sailing... there were no savings for my 2023 cruise better than I got last year.

Same here, lol, day 2!
We were all set up to land on exactly 175 after the next one ended but we squeezed in a 5-nighter late last month when a good price popped up like 4 weeks out and it happened to fit our schedule. Now I'm staring at 173 and even though nothing has actually changed, I hate it! 🤣

Yes, that's true but it's only DH and me. We usually just share one between us. Oh well.

Just saved $375 by repricing internet, UDP and CocoCay on Odyssey and $160 on CoCoCay on Liberty. I'LL TAKE IT!!!!!

I was hoping for that too but it hasn't budged and tbh I can't remember it ever going down in any sales across any of the cruises I've done. 😕

Yep, translation is "oh crap, you got this for a rate a lot lower than what we're seeing it go for on other cruises. Can we have it back?"

FionaMG reacted to smokeybandit in Opening Schedule for 2025 - 2026 Deployment
It's painful pricing out 2025 cruises and having to pick "adult" for my currently 11 yr old son.

FionaMG reacted to teddy in Opening Schedule for 2025 - 2026 Deployment
Done.
Independence round trip from Southampton to Spain and Portugal. Corner “Sunset” Balcony on deck 7. It shows up on the invoice as a “Spa Spacious Balcony”. I don’t recall seeing this description before.
When I spoke with the representative to do the actual booking, it was $75 cheaper than the price I saw online.

FionaMG got a reaction from Psycho and Barb in BLACK FRIDAY
Same on my upcoming Symphony and Anthem cruises. It's just so they can generously offer a bigger discount during the BF sale. I'm still holding out in the probably vain hope of it dropping below $19.99. 😕
