lmf24 Posted February 18, 2012 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I really would like to upgrade to a balcony on my upcoming April Sensation cruise. I have been watching prices but the balcony cabins don't seem to be going down at all. Is there any hope this may happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfadj Posted February 18, 2012 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2012 If they have open balconies close to sailing will reduce pricing. keep watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted February 18, 2012 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Prices go up and down .. hard to predict. I watch and see if there is a trend, like a couple up moves ..or a couple of down moves toward the price I booked. The last couple of weeks I really watch close as thats the most typical time for them to drop for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barsnikel Posted February 18, 2012 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2012 As stated by others, prices go up and down, and for a variety of reasons. You can't really predict what will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbgd Posted February 18, 2012 #6 Share Posted February 18, 2012 If your on an older ship doing western Caribe and cabins are not selling good chance prices will drop. If doing eastern or southern on a newer ship not as good of a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1948buddy Posted February 18, 2012 #7 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Our next cruise is RC Mariner. I booked it 1 1/2 yrs ago for $1810, now it is $4021. As they say, you just never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koval Posted February 18, 2012 #8 Share Posted February 18, 2012 There is an OV Spa Cabin open and some IS's on the Magic, for next week, with GREAT prices compared to what we paid 1 1/2 years ago Oh to live in a port city, be retired (w/money) and just wait on a great deal One can dream right :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthlessBoss Posted February 18, 2012 #9 Share Posted February 18, 2012 April.....spring breaks. Not likely to go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted February 18, 2012 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Remember that there are not a lot of balcony cabins on Sensation. The odds of balcony prices coming down are pretty slim on that particular ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrounds Posted February 18, 2012 #11 Share Posted February 18, 2012 I tend to cruise last minute (book 3-5 days before the cruise). Sometimes get unbelievably low rates, other times, especially if its a popular time and ship, not so much. Sometimes (once) the ship is SOLD OUT. Just depends on the ship, the time and even which cruise line probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our total price drop since we made our final payment ended up being $234 pp :D:D:D I don't think I'll ever see that happen again but I'm lovin' the OBC for sure!
