cruizinisthebest Posted April 8, 2015 #176 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Where are all of you finding a $50 OBC today? When I do a mock booking for my July Breeze cruise, I'm not seeing any offers for OBC. Early Saver is offering obc right now. I also have a VIFP offer that comes with obc. We sail in August as well..how long ago did you book? Thank you December. I thought this sailing was a tad overpriced to begin with, which is why I initially booked an interior. We're in an oceanview now. Edited April 8, 2015 by cruizinisthebest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this sailing was a tad overpriced to begin with, which is why I initially booked an interior. We're in an oceanview now. No early saver OBC offer on my July 18 sailing. I did a mock booking of some Breeze October sailings and there it was - a $50 OBC early saver bonus. I guess I'm naive enough to have thought that something like that would pertain to early saver rates across the board. Guess it's all about supply and demand.

ccruisequeen Posted April 8, 2015 #179 Share Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) No changes on my Oct cruise. When I first booked, I had two drops in 13 days. Now nothing. Well I still have 204 days to go.

rene194215 Posted April 8, 2015 Author #180 Share Posted April 8, 2015 So I have to thank those that have mention getting OBC!! I just called and they re-priced my booking and now I have the $50.00 OBC on top of the original $180.00 I started this thread about! So looking at it this way, that's a total of $230.00 really!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both your sailing and mine has ES listed as "Early Saver last call." However when I looked at the stipulations it does say for sailings between August-December 2015.

kidlessatsea Posted April 8, 2015 #182 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Thanks for posting about the OBC. Earlier my price was cheaper by $30 but didn't include the OBC (I already had $50 from an earlier deal) so I checked again. It's down $90 and includes the OBC. I tried to submit a form but the website froze. Left a VM for my PVP to call me back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vellamint Posted April 8, 2015 #183 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I just submitted for another $20 drop... but I have no idea where or how to check for the $50 OBC... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberdc87 Posted April 9, 2015 #184 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I just submitted for another $20 drop... but I have no idea where or how to check for the $50 OBC... When you get your approval and your new "bill" look at the very bottom of that. Mine was on there under the final price and everything. If it's not there, you may want to call.

dougtr Posted April 18, 2015 #185 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Another Price Drop on my Cruise!! Carnival Glory 10/31/15 14 day Voyages Cruise. No OBC (on board credit) included with these rates. We were able to upgrade our category of room for slightly more with these new rates. Well worth a look. Hopefully this helps those looking for single supplements as well. Add $100 to pick your own room rather than having Carnival pick it for you. Starting Rates as of 4/18/15: Inside - $769.00 Oceanview - $1,099.00 Balcony - $1,459.00 Suites - $2,009.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzn buckeye Posted April 18, 2015 #186 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Yeah well me and you both. Both your sailing and mine has ES listed as "Early Saver last call." However when I looked at the stipulations it does say for sailings between August-December 2015. when i am checking cruises, some show early saver last call.. i am pretty sure that is just on the ones that are almost to the date where you can no longer book that particular cruise as early saver because either the 5 month or 3 month deadline has been reached.

AprilJ Posted April 18, 2015 #187 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I'm totally new to the cruise life, so when I saw these threads yesterday, I checked the fair finder link (someone graciously posted) and then called Carnivals 800# - got a super nice Shannon on the line and she changed my rate and told me to call anytime! I wish I knew at the time to have her assigned as my PVP. I got $10 off the cruise rate pp and a $30 OBC - do they give you both a rate change and OBC each time the rate decreases?

simplelife Posted April 18, 2015 #188 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I finally saw a price drop for our June cruise today. It is only $10 pp, but any OBC is worth applying for. My TA filled out the form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vellamint Posted April 23, 2015 #189 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I submitted the form for a $80 price drop and received $40 of it. sent the form in again after rechecking that it WAS $80 less but received the standard rejection... can someone post the email to send then screenshot please? I replied to the rejection letter but it looks to be a fax number as the email address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try calling them, i was rejected for a price drop and i called the 800# and the price was adjusted by the agent i spoke with on the phone, good luck.

Vellamint Posted April 23, 2015 #193 Share Posted April 23, 2015 (edited) Received an email reply stating I would need to be repriced and I would lose our $50 obc.... I didn't even know I had gotten an obc! Must have happened somewhere along the line..... anyway it didn't make sense to lose $50 obc for $40 off my rate.

thekidsandi Posted April 23, 2015 #194 Share Posted April 23, 2015 I had to give up my $50 obc, but in turn, got a $720 reduction in my rate. Easy decision. I've gotten small reductions before, but never this big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuarterNickelDime Posted April 24, 2015 #196 Share Posted April 24, 2015 This is my first cruise and I booked early saver for June on conquest. We are about 67 days out and on fare viewer the early saver is now gone. How do I check for price drops now? Up until now, I clicked on early saver and then found my category.

You don't have to match just to early saver rate. You match to any rate that you qualify for within your same stateroom category. So, early saver isn't available, but let's say the Cruise n' Choose is and the rate is lower, then you match to that, but you will always remain early saver. I hope I am making sense.:D Edited April 24, 2015 by Tannison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinisthebest Posted April 24, 2015 #199 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Got another drop earlier this evening . That's $120 more added to my obc! Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3Pelicans Posted April 24, 2015 #200 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Just saw that the price for a balcony room for my august cruise went down $90 in early saver and the casino rate is even less. Just emailed my TA (my bad for booking through a TA) to have her put in the request. Got GC through Verizon earlier this week...its been a good week! Cruise paid for, excursions paid for, fun paid for through GC's....OBC would just be icing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
