Cant use it during the summer months, can't use it for Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Presidents day, and spring break.. So basically you can only use it if you are willing to take kids out of school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t be mad at them for restricting those weeks, if you could sell something for 10k, would you sell it for 5 “just out of the goodness of your heart?” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovetocruise2002 Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Thanks @Skid for sharing some info for those who can take advantage of it. KSF usually does work out to be the best deal for those with kids under 12 and for sailings that fall outside of the black out periods. Sad news, my next March break cruise falls into the "excluded" dates. Guess I got lucky with the last two years. Hmmm...going to make that suite next year on OA a harder one to sell to Hubby.

Glad to see you have rebounded from your post cruise depression and are looking ahead with anticipation. And I've grown to believe that hubby doesn't really need all that much selling--he's always "on board" with you. Lovetocruise2002 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You posted about the new kids sail free offer.. but you left out all the black out dates that come with it.. Many times I have seen people post on message boards hey I thought it was kids sail free why isn't my cruise in July showing that.. So I just wanted people to remember don't forget the offer has many black out dates. Sorry if I offended you it really wasn't my intention.

Just increase published pricing, take the discount off of book pricing and you’ve got a discount that really doesn’t save you any money at all.

I'm so relieved. I was reading one of your earlier blogs and you kept using "KSF". For the life of me I couldn't figure out what the heck it meant. Mystery solved. I can return to my regular programming (which, let's face it, just consists of reading more cruising blogs).

Ogalthorpe Haywood Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 KSF worked for me. Saved about $1100 on a May 2020 Oasis of the seas sailing. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marti314 Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 Kids sail free promo added 300 dollars to each person for an interior stateroom on Liberty. Kids might sail free but in this case their parents pay big time. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseLife72 Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 With the current KSF promo, we saved $569 in the beginning of the week and then yesterday noticed another $75 price drop for our sailing. It had been a long time since we saw a price drop on one of our cruises so I'm glad to see they still can occur. SpeedNoodles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
