michelle Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Hi all Some great new promotions out there today - Buy One, get 2nd person 1/2 offand Military Appreciation fares. The buy one offer actually is allowing some great rates for 2015 sailings - you could end up getting a family of 4, two staterooms for about the same price as 4 people in one cabin - check it out!

Marc Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Yes, this sale is quite good. I was concerned when I saw the rates bump up a couple of days ago, obviously in preparation for the sale, but with the 50%-off the second guest, it works out better than the rates were last week. I just booked two more cruises with this sale, one for my friend and me to celebrate his birthday in 2016, and one for all of us in 2015.

Matt Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Great deal! Interesting to see them promoting cruises so far in the future this much but it's a good deal if you can plan ahead. michelle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalLaker Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 That is a good deal for a rare California cruise! Ya, since I just booked this cruise less then a month ago at 650 a person. Maybe it would help if Royal would send some sort of advertisement about those rare cruises. 17 months is still along time away odds are the price will rise.

bcarney Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I pulled the trigger ... One ocean view cabin in April, for four people, on Jewel was $X. With this sale, two connecting ocean view cabins (two in each room) were just $30 more! That was a no-brainer - booked!!!!! Thanks for your help Michelle!!!

monctonguy Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 It's a great offer if you are planning on cruising in late 2015 or 2106 especially as by 2016, chances are the price will have gone up by then. However, these prices aren't great from what I have seen, They must have raised the base prices to help make up for it. I have travlled in the past for cheaper than any deals i can find right now......or even for early 2015. Guess the only plus is you can just put a deposit down now, and lots of time to pay it off.

I agree - RCI raised some prices for this sail but overall I do see some savings on some itineraries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 I agree - RCI raised some prices for this sail but overall I do see some savings on some itineraries If you're booking a cruise for 2015/2016 I'd take advantage of it but remain vigilant for better prices as time goes on. Good entry point to lock in a decent deal and then see what else comes your way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jticarruthers Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Yeah there was definitely some price raising in order to then discount on some cruises but there are also some good deals. Had 6 cabins booked for Thanksgiving 2015 and they all came down about $300, also had a cruise booked for Mar 2015 though that went up about $200 so it seems some good deals some not.

This is what I found too for some CALL back for WOW sale - I found it was the same pricing as BOGO but now you would get onboard credit too They can just adjust to that but make sure rates don't change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jticarruthers Posted June 3, 2014 Report Share Posted June 3, 2014 The pricing bounced up again on my block during May, not worth repricing on again at this point but I check periodically :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian91 Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Hi We are really not happy that this offer is only open to USA and Canadian residents. The prices in Europe are very expensive and we have high air costs when travelling to the States. We just tried to book Allure for May 2015 sailing from Barcelona, from a USA online cruise company, and were told that our price would be higher than advertised as we were outside the US and Canada. But, we still love cruising :mellow: michelle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rina Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 BOGO 50% off is now back until September 15th. Run don't walk! ;) Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 BOGO 50% off is now back until September 15th. Run don't walk! ;) The 3rd and 4th passengers free is also back, which I think is a better deal if you were planning on having 3 or 4 people in your stateroom. Regardless, you should look at re-pricing any existing cruises to see if this deal benefits you. michelle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jticarruthers Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Worth checking on. All my future plans came down a little from last week but still up from when we booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michelle Posted August 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Happy to discuss options with people - I've booked myself on a few of these Trying to get up to Platinum Status quicker,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Trying to get up to Platinum Status quicker,lol It's addictive. We got to Platinum and now we're all about moving up the chain higher :lol: michelle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galveston Steve Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 It's addictive. We got to Platinum and now we're all about moving up the chain higher :lol: And I thought we were the only ones . Looks like the loyalty program is working!

Matt Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 And I thought we were the only ones . Looks like the loyalty program is working! When you get to Platinum, you get a taste of the benefits but the real benefits begin at Diamond, which isnt that far away from Platinum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxFan Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 One of the great perks for Platinum and above is the balcony discount, but Matt is right, Diamond and up is where it's at. We are just 6 points away from that illustrious status Luckily our next cruise is in a suite on the Jewel so we will still get great perks and we will be 8 points on the good side of Diamond! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenline627 Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 I think we are going to book one also think I will wait till we are on the ship to book in September maybe get some extras that way. Looking at booking a October 2015 cruise one stops in the Florida Keys and I always wanted to see the Keys. This cruise by staying in a JR Suite would put us in Platinum which would be nice.

Brenda Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 oh it is active alright we are at Emerald now and are shooting for Diamond before our Alaska cruise next June. Being a Floridia resident, having a Sr husband and these great sales sure feed the addiction . No reson not to go Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
