gooch47 Posted October 20, 2014 #26 Share Posted October 20, 2014 The price on our Christmas Panama Canal cruise has gone down twice since we booked it. Still waiting for our upgrades, though. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted October 21, 2014 #32 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) I've been booking our Christmas cruises after the final payment date for several years. Some years we don't get to go--but we've managed to fit them in six out of the last ten years plus a couple of cruises that were the week before Christmas. My biggest recommendation is that you can't get your heart set on one particular cruise. This year I'm watching the prices on a dozen. Last year it was 11. The cruises we ended up taking last year (back-to-back 4-day cruises on the Ruby) dropped in price by more than $300 per person from when I first started watching prices in August. This year, the biggest drop has been more than $500 per person since mid-August. If we go, I'll probably book within the next week. On the other hand, some of the prices have increased this year. Some categories of cabins that were available are now sold out. Edited October 21, 2014 by geoherb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarElz Posted October 21, 2014 Author #33 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Unfortunately, the only one that makes financial sense is the one leaving from Houston, as I won't need air or hotel and can jump on at the last minute if the prices drop. Since they pretty much have the market cornered for this particular date, it may not happen for me but I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexspepa Posted October 21, 2014 #34 Share Posted October 21, 2014 The cruises we ended up taking last year (back-to-back 4-day cruises on the Ruby) . we were on that cruise - our first Christmas cruise and we loved it...best behaved group of children I ever saw on a cruise ship!
