IMKTDQT810 Posted August 9, 2013 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Not sure if you guys would know the answer to this or not. I had this posted on another thread that started and then realized that I might get a response if I post the question myself. But I am considering going on Fantasy or Pride next year. My TA is going to go on a ship tour with her DH on Pride next weekend. I ran into him at the store the other day and he told me that once they do the ship tour he is going to surprise her with a cruise on that ship. He knows that we are good friends and that we are going to go for my DH's BD next summer. He said that there is a F&F Interline rate they could prolly get us if they end up going the same week as us. At first I was thrilled...thinking even more savings even though I can't ask my TA (just yet) what type of savings will that be Vs. ES. But can I book an ES anyways and use the F&F Interline as a comparison IF they are sailing the same week? I just worry to book the F&F Interline and what if something happens and they can't go....where does that leave me and my booking. So any info you could help on that would be great (since I can't ask her hee,hee). Also, can ES compare to Interline if the TA is cruising...I know, off topic but wondering. If this can't be discussed here them please Private message me. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicia Posted August 10, 2013 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I do know that you can book ES and then price match the Interline rate to it. I'm not sure what happens to the F&F rate if the person eligible for the Interline rate can't cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnival_Brides Posted August 10, 2013 #3 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I'm pretty sure you can't price match to Interline rates. It came up a few months ago when someone booked ES only to find out they were eligible for Interline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tapi Posted August 10, 2013 #4 Share Posted August 10, 2013 There's no ES price matching with interline rates. Also, if for some reason your friends back out, you can't keep the interline rate. The eligible person HAS to travel. Your booking will be repriced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ready2cruzagain Posted August 10, 2013 #5 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Tapi is right. The person eligible must sail and also no price matching to interline rates with ES. At least that has been my experience in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMKTDQT810 Posted August 10, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Thank you....good to know. Maybe and depending on how much of a difference it is I will just book ES and hope the price drops so in the end I am close to what the F&F Interline might have been but don't have to worry if TA will be going also or not. But this info helps a lot, so thank you for letting me know!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kicia Posted August 11, 2013 #7 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I've been able to price match ES to interline rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
