Took a full suite - balcony extended across the stern. Paid $5000+ for 4 day coastal. Then, all was applied to my already booked next cruise - LA Hawaii RT balcony. Made the suite free.

A short, but oh so sweet bonus!

Another time, paid 750 for both of us on the RT LA Hawaii.

Small clarification:

I found it when I went to "PRINT travel summary" - the page that was generated to print contained the S+S info not found in the online details summary.

Substituting OBC will likely change based on length of cruise. May be a better deal for some.

Switching to a lower fare with out S&S with a non-refundable deposit takes away some options to change to a future promo.

Whatever gets you to the high seas that you are good with is a win.[emoji6]

They don’t have giant cups so if you need a larger cup, bring your own.

Cruises, just like airlines, have dynamic pricing on inventory which can change up or down any given day. So percentage off sales may have a different base price every day in some categories.

Perks may added for a period of time during a sale.

That being said, I booked a cruise yesterday and another one today under Sip and Sail for less than I could before the sale without the perks. Go figure.

YMMV.

I use a beverage package and like to get my wife and I a latte and a muffin at Cafe B and take it back to the cabin. Unfortunately, on a recent cruise they offered only a regular-size cup, unlike my most-traved line which offers BIG to go cups. Not enough.

I ask for a third latte, which worked but only depending on the baristta

Going back in September. Is there a better way without traipsing down a second time?

Thanks!

No idea. But took Randy at Mountain Air earlier this month and highly recommend over ship excursion. He"s local and does a landing in the middle of tour.

Are you Elite Captain’s Circle? If not these cruises won’t be available until 5/17.

Medicare SUPPLEMENT" insurance WILL cover you internationally.

It is the "ADVANTAGE" plan that does not.

That is the one good thing about having to pay the high premiums

for a Supplement Plan.

Hello everyone need some

Advise. I am gong to purchase the all inclusive drink card on our next cruise. I remember in the past people saying something a long the line is it is cheaper to purchase before you cruise as you save tax is this true. The reason I ask the Canadian dollar is very weak so it might save us a few bucks. Just wondering what is the us cost of the card as I can only find the Canadian cost

Having suffered through about thirty minutes trying to make a simple payment for a shore excursion this week on an Android device, I can second the notion they still have website problems. There is also another cruise cancelled months ago that remains in my future cruises with reminders to book shore excursions.

My guess is they initially spent a decent sum with some South Asia IT company and someone is unwilling to cut their losses and say we made a mistake.

Can't imagine why problems have existed this long without someone being given a final warning.

I had a major expense due to trip interruption. I called Citi and they told me that it would have been covered under the Costco Citi Visa but I have the Costco Citi "Business" Visa which does not cover trip cancellation or interruption. Pretty disappointing.

 

If you are a Costco member this is a significant distinction.

Paired with my Medicare Advantage worldwide emergency medical (including cruise ships), it appears I only need to supplement the package with ...

a medical evacuation supplement, either per trip or annual.

That package appears to cover everything except cancel for any reason.

Anybody see a flaw in what I've outlined?

They need to bring back the 10 day around the tahitian islands I did it on the Tahitian Princess and it was the best

Which Citi card do you have? I have the Costco Citi Visa and I don't think this coverage is included.

Anyone receive an upsell offer on an Alaskan cruise? Just curious.

Was part of a slot pull with a large Roll Call last year. Two dollar machines were used. Each person played $3 x 5 pulls. A total of about $800 went thru. Balance we split at the end was about $450. I think this is probably typical.

Ha! Not counterfeit. Likely Elite members who trade the minibar setup for two coffee cards. I have several now. Will get 4 more on an upcoming B2B which already include the bev pkg.

While one of the more costly excursions, the sea plane flight over several glaciers to the Taku Lodge for a good meal was very memorable.

Stopped using this agency when one of the perks didn't show up when the cruise started. Of course, ship rep was "that's between you and your agent.". Several emails back and forth finally produced the credit about 7 days into a ten day cruise.

That and agency cancellation fee caused me to find better deals elsewhere.

Uber and Lyft are lurking close by and your app will tell you wait time, if any. I walk off at 8:30 and arrive at my home 40 miles north of LAX by 10:15 or so in weekday traffic.

It is an embarrassment. If this happened in companies I am familiar with, and it wasn't fixed in short order, people would be in the unemployment line.

Booked a cruise this week. Went to Celebrity Air. Showed me flights but would not allow me to book.

Oh...and they still show a cruise I cancelled a couple months ago.
