cjb0717 Posted February 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I'm so excited I had to share. I'd been watching this cruise for a while and when they posted a senior rate I booked it on Jan. 31. Just tonight I checked again and a price drop (senior rate was gone). Called RCI and they adjusted my booking instantly. I just saved $240 for the cabin compared to my first booking. Woohoo! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crookedhalo Posted February 11, 2010 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2010 And don't the price drops make the trip that much sweeter:D I honestly think I've gotten at least one price drop (and in some cases multiple drops) on every cruise I've taken. Since I book at a price I think is fair and affordable, any drop is just icing on the cake:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCWalton1 Posted February 11, 2010 #8 Share Posted February 11, 2010 I booked our cabin for our Voyager cruise last April. About 5 weeks ago, the price went up $10 per person (go figure:rolleyes:). This morning it dropped $10 back to the original price. So is that technically a price drop. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I check at least once a day looking for one with no joy so far.... price just keeps going up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewcarol Posted February 11, 2010 #10 Share Posted February 11, 2010 Where are you watching for price drops? If there are similar cabins online at a cheaper price? Do you have to go through the whole enrollment process to check? I booked my cruise online at RCCL...and it is for next Friday. Wondering what I should do to figure out if there is a drop. Do they notify you automatically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, OP, since you booked online, you can call Royal Caribbean directly and request the price drop. I have had very good luck with the handling of price drops by RC.

DigiPro Posted February 13, 2010 #16 Share Posted February 13, 2010 I've been lurking here a while and learning some great tips. We booked an OS for our upcoming cruise on Apr 12. Original price was $1,487pp and when I checked today it was $1,049pp!! Needless to say I got on the phone right away to RCI and they are giving us an OBC for the difference. I would never have known about it if it wasn't for this great forum. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
