skrodle Posted July 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I have a cruise booked (April 2015 10 RT Mexico out of SF) and we booked full suite. It was list price and since we were using a FCC we were not too concerned about the price since the deposit was taken care of. Also, the suite rarely drop below list price, maybe they will offer a OBC. To my surprise the morning when I was checking if any better Suites had opened up, I saw a price drop and OBC being offered for the suite. They previously had the OBC for the 4th of July sale, but it was only $75 pp, and the Deposit became non-refundable (I wasnt ready to TOTALLY commit yet, even though we are pretty sure we are going). Well I was so happy to see it was a $100 pp OBC, a $300 total price drop, the $20 or so savings on our cruise insurance, AND it was a refundable deposit! WIN all around! Seems like a great sale to me! Now if only they would offer me an upsell from the S6 we are booked in, to an S2 I would be a happy camper :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorisis Posted July 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I could find no information on a suite sale. Where did you see it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocketMan275 Posted July 24, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 24, 2014 My suite was not reduced but was able to get another $100 OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SailingSoonAgain Posted July 24, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I found it and tried to book a balcony cabin on an eastbound transatlantic for 2015. It wouldn't even give me prices for booking as a single. The cabins are available but not too single people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchip Posted July 24, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 24, 2014 We didn't have a suite, but we upgraded from a BZ balcony to a DZ balcony with no price increase and $30 more OBC! We now have a forward facing deluxe balcony on the Royal Princess. Excited for sure. Cheers, Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovevacadays Posted July 25, 2014 #10 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I have always gotten a sizable discount on a suite using a travel agent. Mike:) I would think a really good TA could get a much better price on these suites than Princess is offering even with their discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhopal21 Posted July 25, 2014 #11 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I would think a really good TA could get a much better price on these suites than Princess is offering even with their discount. They sure can, as they start with the Princess discounted price and go from there. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorisis Posted July 25, 2014 #12 Share Posted July 25, 2014 https://book.princess.com/html/global/cruisedeals/suite-balcony-bonus-sale/ Thanks. I just checked for my Sept. B2B cruisses and the sale price is much higher than what I am paying. AND my TA is giving us $300 OBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caribill Posted July 25, 2014 #16 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Before the sale: balcony cabin cost xxx and had OBC of $100. With the"sale", the cabin costs $100 less, but the OBC has disappeared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
