24639 Posted May 4, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 4, 2014 I was playing around on the website last night and found a 5 day cruise on the Sapphire for $40 a person inside cabin. Shanghai to Beijing. Of course, when you click the link there are no cabins. Even better was when I checked it this morning and it was $29! I took a screen shot of it in case I really wanted to pursue it, but I probably won't. If anyone is successful getting this rate I sure would like to hear about it. I think it is just a glaring error on the Princess side of the world, but it sure would be fun to get a rate like that.:p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sashas_mom Posted May 4, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Don't have any answer for you, but would you tell me how to take a screen shot? Wish I knew how on different occasions when I saw a price change that changed again by the time my TA was available. Does Princess honor it if you have a screen shot? Thanks.

Ethel5 Posted May 4, 2014 #5 Share Posted May 4, 2014 Yup-there's something wrong with the website! It's showing $29/pp/pd for an inside. But when you try to book it, nothing else comes up. The OV cabins are >$230/pp/pd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted May 4, 2014 #7 Share Posted May 4, 2014 If you have a Mac, I think it's "Shift" "Command" "4"; hold all 3 at the same time to get crosshairs to appear. Then drag the crosshairs across the part of the screen you want a picture of, and when you let go, it's taken a screenshot and stored it to your desktop.

I'd say no. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibfern Posted May 5, 2014 #13 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Push the button and power switch at the same time. I learned this by accident a few months ago, I could not figure out why there were screen shots in my photo files! LOL then I realized I had stumbled into this while messing around--this seems to be the way I learn a lot on my iphone/ipad! :D In case anybody is wondering where it went, its in the photos!

sashas_mom Posted May 5, 2014 #15 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Just did it on my IPad. Thanks so much for the tip. Now the question is, how can I use the screen shot to prove the price went down? Do I use it with Princess or my TA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poolreader Posted May 6, 2014 #18 Share Posted May 6, 2014 It may not be worth bothering with the screen shots, I have found great (not fabulous) prices on both Princess and Carnival, taken the screen shots, but not had the price honored. Maybe it is just my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One Eye Open Posted May 6, 2014 #21 Share Posted May 6, 2014 How to take a screenshot: IPad Hold down the Home button and power buttons at the same time. Nexus 7 Hold in the volume down and the power buttons at the same time. After a brief pause you'll hear a audible noise and see an animation.

cdngrl Posted May 7, 2014 #22 Share Posted May 7, 2014 shhhh....I want this to stay under the radar....I booked this at the low rate...I had to call princess to do it, and I asked if it was a mistake. I was told no one wants to fly all that way for 5 days. I'll be 'in the neighbourhood', so I booked it and paid in full. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airfare was not bad, but what a schlepp for 5 days. I am so excited that someone was able to get the super duper rate. Did you book for the $40 or the $29 pp?

I keep checking my personalizer to make sure it hasn't gone up! Edited May 7, 2014 by cdngrl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
