It is only the cruise fare that they will lower.
Port fees and taxes stay the same as the day that you booked the sailing. The only option you have is if you have a refundable deposit is to chance and rebook, of course this means waiting for a refund and losing any pre-purchased cruise planner items.
I don't think so. Look at where she is in the construction process vs where icon is and icon won't be sailing until January. Pretty sure I slso remember someone on the 2 day Wonder naming ceremony mentioning the fall for Utopia
Anthem has been the only ship in NJ that was built for cold weather. The Explorer did those winter sailings for years and people booked them. I will bet that sales go up by putting a new ship in NJ, Anthem has been there too long.
As for Odyssey moving to PR...not a chance
Travel agents were told that reservations were opening up on the 1st of the month, the month prior to sailing. March sailings open Feb 1, July sailings open June 1 etc
This worked exactly as I was told for our March Oasis cruise as well as one other Oasis cruise that I have a friend on, they both opened Feb 1.
That's the first I've heard about the 40% off for Pins being able to be applied to a soda package. I thought it was just for the Dlx drink package. I will definitely have to check and see if I can get the 30% for D+ applied to a refreshment package on board.
Might be a way around that if you find a TA and as long as you are under the 30 dsys since you booked it.
If you call and add prepaid gratuities to the booking it will no longer be paid in full and should be able to be transferred.
