I usually cruise on Celebrity but enjoyed a couple of Princess cruises 10 years ago. I was going to book the Apex for January 2024 but decided to look at Princess just to see what they had. I was able to book a similar 7 day cruise on Princess Sky for over $2500 less with only a $100 refundable deposit. It was a no brainer. Looking forward to cruising on the Sky!

Thanks. It turns out the "good" USD promo code deal was really a IT problem with the web site so it wasn't actually valid. All that currency conversion calculations for nothing lol.

That is good to know. I am not surprised there is an IT error. If they are going to come back and adjust the price it's not worth booking in USD for just $100 OBC.

Has anyone ever booked a cruise in USD and then transferred to a Canadian TA? Celebrity has a promo code ALLABOARD100 that only works if you book in USD. It provides $100 OBC and the price of the cruise when converted to CAD is about $900 less. I would like to book with Celebrity to get those savings but not sure if there are any downsides to booking in USD, like not being able to transfer to a Canadian TA?

The promo code only works if you book in USD. I usually book in CAD but the savings are significant for the cruise I'm looking at if I use the promo code. You get the $100 OBC but also get the all included perks for the same price as without them. Not sure if there are any downsides if I book in USD but seems worth it.
