This is the first time that the shore excursions have gone on sale, since our original booking in Feb. Refreshment package also dropped, but only by $.50 a day since I got it on sale last time. I did not rebook that. I might be a little manic, but not that manic! DocLC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FManke Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Does anybody know how close to a cruise date they will stop putting something on sale? Just wondering when is a good time to stop checking the cruise planner for sales? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLA Posted June 20, 2017 Report Share Posted June 20, 2017 Yay! Was able to grab a spontaneous excursion booking - decided to go for the Jet Ski tour at Labadee (just one driver/passenger pair). We loved the tour at Coco Cay so looking forward to trying this at Labadee! I did also see that the non-suite cabanas were on sale, so if you've been on the fence about a cabana I'd check that out.

I'm pretty sure you can book things in the cruise planner all the way up to a couple days out from your sail date, so I'd imagine if there was a sale going it'd still apply as long as you're in the Cruise Planner booking window.

It's not working for me. I'm in a loop where they log me off every 3 of 4 times I try to get into the reservation. When I do get in, and I click Cruise Planner, it brings me to the screen where you go into cruise planner without logging in. Or it takes me to a blank screen. Or it logs me out telling me I've been inactive for more than 15 minutes. I'm also being told my reservation number is invalid about half the time. I cleared cookies and used alternate browsers. I'm an applications manager. I can't believe they even have a QA team. WAAAYTOOO and KLA 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the bottom of the page on most pages in the Cruise Planner, it will say what the cut-off is for purchases via Cruise Planner. It's right around 4 days, if memory serves me correctly.
