T2C Posted November 5, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Got a $150 price reduction on August 2014 cruise, 4 people in extended balcony cabin on Pride. Just wanted to share as some of these events don't have a price reduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 cruzen Posted November 5, 2013 #2 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Good for you! We just applied for a friend who is taking her 3 kids..balcony, all together. She's hoping for a $440 reduction,:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatlinSTJ Posted November 5, 2013 #3 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Question - if you're booked with the Past Guest rate, how do you submit a request for a price adjustment? I've done it in the past for Early Saver, but never PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T2C Posted November 5, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I've just called them and asked them to match. Exactly, you can get price reductions up to final payment with any category, early saver just allows it up to like 2 weeks before sailing or something.

ready2cruzagain Posted November 5, 2013 #6 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Glad to see you got the adjustment. Definitely good if you are before final payment or booked ES. For me, I have 3 cruises booked. First one the PGA sale is $100 higher than what I paid, second one is $125 higher, and the third one is $275 higher. I think I must have gotten a great deal when I booked.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaniel Lover Posted November 5, 2013 #7 Share Posted November 5, 2013 I'd like to thank the original poster for taking the time to post this. It prompted me to check the current promotional rates against what I've got booked for back-to-back cruises next year. Turns out that the current promotion is at $100 per person less than when I booked. Two people, two cruises back-to-back... that's a savings of $400. I just called Carnival and they were very pleasant about changing things over to the new lower rate. It was easy. So thanks to the original poster who saved me $400. I appreciate that!

I think I must have gotten a great deal when I booked.:D I think I did too. I got one drop so far but it was for $140 per person. Pretty significant. Since then, the price has gone up twice. And we upgraded one room to a category I highly doubt will see a drop since there’s only a few of them on the ship. Oh well. I still check everyday! Congratulations OP. Gotta love them price drops!

rdevine10 Posted November 6, 2013 #15 Share Posted November 6, 2013 Did anyone who booked also book with half price deposit? I see our cruise has dropped again (took a screen shot). But its too late to call. I will call in the morning and see if we can get the new price with the half price deposit (I would prefer to hold onto my own money till its due!!!). thanks!

I did and you do have to put down the rest of a normal deposit. For us we had to do another $500 on the deposit, way I figure that $500 isn't going to make me the money I saved in the time before we cruise.

I booked with the 1/2 off deposit. You have to pay the remainder of the deposit to get the price drop applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
