cruisephypro Posted September 18, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2011 My Husband and I are interested in upgrading to a suite guarantee on our upcoming Jan celebrity equinox cruise. Does anybody know when those rates (if available) will be posted? How long in advance of the cruise do they list them? About what percentage discount do they offer off of the cheapest suite rate? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bighairtexan Posted September 18, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Often times they never offer a suite guarantee. Depends on inventory for timing and if they even are offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottygirl1 Posted September 18, 2011 #4 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Off topic slightly but I thought I'd ask here instead of starting a new thread. When you book on the Celebrity website it tells me I have to pay full payment on that date. I read on here how others "wait until payment is due so can change their cabins etc"... What am I getting wrong here or what don't I understand? Perhaps because I am looking at the "New Zealand" version of the Celebrity site is that the difference?

CathyCruises Posted September 19, 2011 #5 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Well, here in the US final payment is usually due 75 days before the cruise. If you book within that window, you will have to pay straight away. Not sure about regs in NZ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottygirl1 Posted September 19, 2011 #6 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thanks for that - no I was looking at a cruise next July and it says final payment would be today if I booked. If I was to book, I think I'd email them first about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lsimon Posted September 19, 2011 #7 Share Posted September 19, 2011 It's all about supply and demand. If they have more suites than they think they can sell at full price then they'll put their "overstock" on sale either with discounted prices or by offering a lower price suite guarantee. But if the cruise is selling well they may never offer a guarantee rate and the normal rate may increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Project_gal Posted September 19, 2011 #9 Share Posted September 19, 2011 About what percentage discount do they offer off of the cheapest suite rate? Thanks For one of the cruises I am watching the suite guarantee rate is actually higher than the rate for a Celebrity Suite [M-class ship]!

CruisingEsq Posted September 19, 2011 #12 Share Posted September 19, 2011 We upgraded from a 1A hump balcony to W on a whim for our TA in a month on Silhouette. Ended up with an S1 (starboard aft). Pretty good deal, but it was short lived. I think our sailing is now pretty full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
