gaechann Posted September 30, 2015 #1676 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Melbourne Cup wasn't a 'deal'...it was a pricing error Yes I'm sure you're right but with almost 1500 members interested in finding the HOT AUSSIE CRUISE DEAL each day many of us were able to take advantage of the "error" obtaining an extended balcony for a SINGLE for the lowly price of just $492. If there were 2 of you going then you had to book 2 cabins! As some have pointed out, the stewards will have lots of empty cabins to service for the 6 days! LOL! The price for a single now in the same category is well over $4000! I wonder if some Carnival employee was given the DCM (Don't Come Monday) award this morning!

Birubi Posted October 1, 2015 #1686 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Lots of advertising on TV for prominent cruise specialists. Had a look and they are offering Obstructed view on Emerald deck for $3381pp for 33 days Circumnavigation on Diamond. Phoned Princess and the best they can offer is over $1000 more and not interested in the fact that someone else is selling so much cheaper. How can prominent cruise specialist offer this price?

woodyren Posted October 4, 2015 #1695 Share Posted October 4, 2015 RCL new website is up. Make sure anyone who is over 55 ticks the seniors box. Not sure if it applies to many cruises but I ticked it for a cruise I am keeping an eye on and it currently gets you a $440 discount on the balcony price. It also was about $360 for OV and $180 for insides. While senior discounts are very common in the USA I have never noticed one applied to a cruise here and as such never normally bother ticking it. I only did so due to the new website format. Cant be combined with C&A balcony discounts which were worth $325 on this cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love the graphics on the new site but the search options are very clunky I found! Guess I'll get used to them eventually! In the meantime I'm going to online cruise agents to check prices! So much easier! If I see something interesting then I try finding the same cruise on Royal's site! Gae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaechann Posted October 4, 2015 #1697 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I'm sad, I saw this great error but I am already booked on a cruise then. I would have been all over it.:D I was booked on another cruise too but will either be allowing my second passenger to take it over with a new person or will cancel before penalties & get a full refund! Either way it's still win/win I reckon! Gae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaechann Posted October 5, 2015 #1698 Share Posted October 5, 2015 (edited) Sorry the photo is not very clear! Great value for singles!

wagtail_syd Posted October 6, 2015 #1700 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Gaechann you are a bargain fiend! I am also looking for something cheap in May 2016. I want to be cruising on 20 May for my "big" birthday. At the moment the Carnival cruise at that time is their most expensive of the season ($1690 for 12 nights) :( Let me know if you find anything.
