JSB_Z51 Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 I know I am not alone in saying the RCL website isn't the best user experience. Trying to check out some 2023 itineraries. We typically book a Grand Suite. It's way too many clicks to get to my all in price for my family of 4. Then you have to press the back button on your browser 3 to 4 times to get back to your search results to price another itinerary. So my question is for you experts out there, is there a better tool or 3rd party website that shows a grid of all in prices that compares multiple dates and itineraries. Finance/Accounting/Microsoft Excel Nerd here. Numbers speak to me better via a grid or spreadsheet lol. Second question. Any sites you recommend to keep on eye on pricing that alert you of price drops? Thanks in advance and happy sailing. Baked Alaska 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGTLH Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 Cruiseplum.com might work. Until you start digging down you might not see the higher category staterooms with a category. Example if looking at an Owner's Suite the initial results would show a Grand Suite if available. Once you pick the Suite category it will show the OS.

AshleyDillo Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 Cruiseplum.com has an easier search feature to navigate. It doesn't really lay everything out in the fashion you are speaking of but I use it as a starting point. JSB_Z51 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI - After you get the price information you are looking for the is an RC icon in the upper left corner of the screen If you click on it it offers navigation back to search results or home screen. Price checking doing mock bookings it certainly a PITA but if I put on an RC hat, why would they want to make finding cheaper fares easy?

I don't expect them to, there are likely 3rd party sites. I do expect a better user experience, their site is awful. Thanks for that tip, will give it a try.
