Yes, agree.
I’m quite sure the $100 pp deposit for a $1280 CAD pp 14 day TA cruise in a balcony cabin is a good deal for me. With the $960 US OBC we can pay CA, wifi, etc.
I would not risk the deposit for much higher a fare, so far off.
By the way Princess cancelled my Star 2025 cruise, told me I will get my FCD back and I’m still waiting- so seems I’m taking a risk with booking directly and getting no OBC,
