DEEDIA Posted April 5, 2013 #28 Share Posted April 5, 2013 Well I will say now if RCI think I'm going to pay £729 + for an interior for the Westbound TA. Think again. I can Sail out of Barcelona on a 13 night TA to Florida on the Liberty for £562. OR Southampton to Puerto Rico 14 night TA for £499 aboard Adventure O Seas. Sailing the Oasis would be nice but not at a Premium Price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEEDIA Posted April 7, 2013 #29 Share Posted April 7, 2013 As I see it now price of the cruise is Interior from £729. Book more than 6 months in advance and get a C&A discount of £150, = £579, On board booking Bonus $150, and Balcony Bonus $225 gives a total of $375 = £242 = £337 now I think that is a good price. Upgrade for Balcony is £200 so gives a total of £537 / £600. Now this sounds reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewlin Posted April 7, 2013 #30 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Your pricing is very interesting, however, you need to be at least a diamond member to receive £150 discount. Diamond + and Pinnacle is £165, Emerald is £85, platinum is £75 and gold nothing. Which as a gold member means it is still £729 for us:(. I might take the risk and wait until much nearer the time or alternatively just do a last minute on a Caribbean cruise as we want to do Florida next year anyway. If I was a diamond member, I would certainly be very interested in booking straight away at those prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstCruise2331 Posted April 7, 2013 #31 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Excuse my ignorance but suppose I book next week with RCI Uk and for some reason between now and when I have to pay the final payment the prices drops, can I avail of it or am I stuck in my original price?

drewlin Posted April 7, 2013 #32 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Interesting question, I would like to know that answer. I always understood it that we were locked into the price once booked apart from increases in fuel/taxes which they can add without notice. Anyone know or is it better to book through a US site?

drewlin Posted April 7, 2013 #33 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Trying to get an idea of the price of a flight back to Manchester (using Oct/Nov 2013 as a guide) but prices for one way are really high with UK companies. Any recommendations for airlines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upgrade for Balcony is £200 so gives a total of £537 / £600. Now this sounds reasonable. I would think the balcony prices may start about double the Inside price..so maybe around £1200/1400 per person.:eek: Don't know where you are getting the "upgrade for balcony is £200" from :confused: The on board booking bonus is not a discount, it is for use when on the ship so I wouldn't ever count that into discounts. Also the onboard booking bonus of $150 and $225 balcony discount is not per person...it is per cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare insidecabin Posted April 7, 2013 #35 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Trying to get an idea of the price of a flight back to Manchester (using Oct/Nov 2013 as a guide) but prices for one way are really high with UK companies. Any recommendations for airlines? One way flights back to LHR from Miami oct 2013 around $400 on Virgin through a US site that I use a lot. problem is rules stop us mentioning the places you can get these prices. there are a couple of general forums in the UK that can be usefull for finding deals. Money saving expert(the forums not the main pages) HotUKdeals(all sorts of stuff and some travel) holidaypirates(they find the cheap deals that are often mistakes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until payment is made in full you can call TA and get the cheaper price. It pays to watch fares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare NorbertsNiece Posted April 7, 2013 #37 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Until payment is made in full you can call TA and get the cheaper price. It pays to watch fares. May not be so simple in the UK. Check with your TA what the current situation is with regards to price drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewlin Posted April 7, 2013 #38 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Just been contacted by UK online TA (who I have pre-registered with). Price for inside cabin plus flight back to London is £1199, £50 extra to return to Manchester. Can also do with 4 nights Orlando at Quality Inn I-drive (including shuttle from Fort Lauderdale to Orlando) for £1359. Have to get to MCO independently.

With the cruise at around £730 thats a lot for the flight back, they have built in a lot of margin, Flight will be available around £250-£350. just checked Orlando for OCt this year $460(£300) on Virgin . there may even be charters from Sanford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upgrade for Balcony is £200 so gives a total of £537 / £600. Now this sounds reasonable. Sorry but your prices are a bit out. If the interior is £729pp then you would not get the £150 balcony discount as you are not in a room with a balcony.:rolleyes: Also the £150 balcony discount is £150 total and not pp. The onboard booking bonus is on board credit and not a discount off the cost of the cruise; and you only get the onboard booking bonus if you book a cruise when on board. Finally the $225 balcony bonus is exactly the same as the £150 balcony discount, so you cannot count that twice I'm afraid. Prices are not known for balconies until tomorrow, so not sure where you have got the info that you can upgrade to a balcony for just £200 from, but I am expecting balconies to start at £1000pp for the 5n cruise. If they are any more than that I won't be booking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
