Black Friday Early Access

[JasonOasis]

The Black Friday Early Access sale ends tonight and I just scored another deal.  

Ever since they started the sale the DBP for our January cruise on Harmony hovered between $85 - $87 dollars per day.  I just checked and booked the DBP just moments ago the price had dropped down to $61 dollars for the DBP for our 7 night cruise on Harmony this coming January.

I also just scored a deal for Utopia in September of 2025 purchased the DBP for $58 dollars per person. 

Prices constantly changing if you didn't find a deal when the sale first began I would strongly encourage you to check again. 

As it currently stands I have booked the DBP for 4 out of out 5 cruises for 2025, I don't even know at this point how much I've saved. So far I haven't paid over $61 dollars for any DBP for 2025. The only cruise I still can't find a deal on is our Symphony of the Seas cruise during spring break I think I'm just going to have to pay the pre-cruise prevailing rate as Royal doesn't seem to want to budge on the price over the spring break season.

I'm surprised there's still price fluctuations between the various BF sales seem to be the same thing.

Nice that you saved extra!

Hi Matt,

Is the general consensus that this early Black Friday Sale will be good for add-ons (packages), but the actual Black Friday sale is usually better for base cruise fare?

On Black Friday itself, I believe they will increase the amount of instant savings a bit. I'm not sure what to expect from the Cruise Planner

I have seen a special Deluxe Beverage Package price for Diamond + and above.  Currently my April cruise is $43.99 a day or $62 with Internet.

I found like 78$ for DBP on Quantum in November 2025 for a 4-nighter.... This is to high IMO

I personally haven't found any early Black Friday sales be actually lower the price of anything. In fact somethings went up in price on both of our booked cruises. The only thing that actually went on sale that I checked was our coffee cards.
