Starrynight0154 Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Sale started. Just saved $182 by canceling and rebooking cruise planner items. Odyssey Greek Isles cruise had steep discounts on excursions, internet, and drink packages. Wonder Caribbean cruise wasn’t as generous overall, Hideaway Beach did drop from $65 to $58, that’s all the savings I could find for what I have booked. I noticed the CocoCay Beach club is 50% off, $123. TessFromFlorida and RCIfan1912 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on your bank / card issuer. Depending on which card I used, I have seen it take between 3 days to 2 weeks. Last year though, during black Friday, Royal had a big issue with their batch processing system for refunds and it took about a month. Hopefully we will not see problems like that again.

RCIfan1912 Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Saved a decent amount on a few things but really wanted a discount on the 3 night dining package but for some reason there is absolutely nothing. Is that normally not included in these sales? Soda package is only a buck difference. That's slightly disappointing too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smost Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 I saved $36 on Internet for one of my cruises so we'll call it a win but the big Black Friday sales are kind of meh for my cruises tbh.

Fredrick Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 I see it says in the fine print on the Cruise Planner. What does "Bookings" mean? When I book the cruise or when I book the cruise planner purchase "*Offer applies to bookings made November 9, 2023 – November 24, 2023, and applies to select sailings departing November 13, 2023 – December 31, 2024. Kids Sale offer applies to guests 12 or younger. Offers are non-transferable and not combinable with Crown & Anchor discounts or any other offer or promotion. Offers may vary by ship and sail date.

Pamp Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 We are on Odyssey over Christmas - not a big savings on anything. Got the refreshment package for $22.99 per day, Internet I had booked awhile ago at 18.99 went down to 17.99...... tingtang 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBC Posted November 9, 2023 Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 8 night Odyssey in February drink package dropped to 72.99, which is what I bought it for a few months back during some sale. It had been fluctuating between 75.99 and 83.99 in the past few months. Internet went down to 17.99, I got a 4 device package for $320 which is $10/day per device. It's more than I have ever paid for that but at the same time it's cheaper than I have seen it all year. Dining all stayed the same as it has been, which is already high in my opinion. Beach club is $253.99 and water park are $151.99, which are both crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, called it. The price of internet on these sailings has gone back down to exactly what it was before they put it up pre-sale. I'm not surprised but it's kind of disappointing. Even just a single dollar lower would have been nice. Once again, it feels like they take us for fools. I do need to have it so I did go ahead and buy it, but not best impressed.

I needed a 4device package so I saved quite a bit on internet. I did buy the Evian packages because the water just taste better. Also got some good PDCC excursions for other in my party.
