Flopthis25 Posted February 6, 2012 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I keep checking RCCL's website to see if the price of the GS drops. I would upgrade if it was at the right price. Am I just wasting my time? We cruise in 32 days.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truffles2 Posted February 6, 2012 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2012 There are only 4 grand suites left on your cruise....but it doesn't hurt to keep checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kc320 Posted February 6, 2012 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Anything is possible... we actually had a price drop a couple years ago on our GS...I was shocked...it was only $20pp but it was during the time you could get OBC after final pmt so it paid for a couple drinks...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shippy Posted February 6, 2012 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2012 We had a balcony booked but about a month before the cruise they offered a 'suite guarantee' catagory. It was hundreds less than a JS so we upgraded to that. Those go fast. Just keep watching the prices eventhough you have already booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARCruisinNana Posted February 8, 2012 #5 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Yes! We are going on Mariner during spring break. My daughter was killing time looking at cruise prices. A great price came up for a GS. We called friend who had a JS booked. They called RCCL right away and upgraded for about the same price paid for the JS. The special price disappeared and haven't seen any GS or higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemis908 Posted February 8, 2012 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Ours has dropped by about $150. The price difference between GS and OS is so huge that I don't think we could ever afford to upgrade, but saving a little money is still worth it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCC retired Posted February 8, 2012 #7 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Your not wasting your time . Keep checking . RCI often offers reduced fare on suites "after" final payment. You can upgrade to one "if" you catch it just right. Our last RCI cruise on the Radiance we upgraded from JS to GS for $50p/p, about 4 weeks from sailing.

dond3131 Posted February 8, 2012 #8 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Where's the best place to look for a price drop,RC own site or Cruise Fish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix1181 Posted February 8, 2012 #9 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Where's the best place to look for a price drop,RC own site or Cruise Fish? RCCL website. I've found the fish is sometimes slow sending notification & I find changes before I get their email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctcruiser1721 Posted February 8, 2012 #10 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It is well worth the time it takes to check. I would check at least twice per day. Closer to the sailing things seem to change minute-to-minute. There is always the possibility those currently booked in a GS could get upgraded also so you never know what might open up.

Candleonwater Posted February 8, 2012 #12 Share Posted February 8, 2012 What's a "normal" difference in price between a JS and a GS? We are sailing on the Enchantment and could "upgrade" for $900. Not being familiar with the suites... and their amenities... it would give me access to the Concierge Lounge, assuming there is one on the EN? It would give me the possibility of getting a cabana at Cococay, right? My thoughts are, if I do this, it would be more for the novelty of it... but just trying to figure out what any possible benefits are from it.

NeuroQueen Posted February 8, 2012 #13 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Our GS on the Oasis dropped 212.00 pp for the 4/28 sailing. It is five days til final so I check endlessly. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
