Check your reservations - price drop

[sc2011]

My Getaway reservation for September dropped $800 and my Epic for next April dropped $1500.

All depends on the time of year. My Breakaway in August went UP by $600 since I booked. Supply and demand.

Pays to monitor pricing...our November 2016 Panama Canal cruise dropped almost $1250 per person last Friday. Will continue to monitor pricing but even if no more drops, we are thrilled with the price we are now paying.

Same here. My Breakaway in November also went up and went from kids sail free to kids sail half price. Plus my category (M6) is sold out.

My Getaway for Oct,2015 went up $800.00 for 2 balconies. I will still keep checking for price drops.

Tracking several Carib. ITN out of NY on the GEM for Nov. & early Dec. 2015 (not holidays) and as I click - prices went up instantly on the cruise fish dot net site by $50+ or higher p/p

so if you notice a price drop after you book does NCL match the new low price? If so, how do they refund you? In on board credit? Cash back onto credit card?

We all need to be extra careful when booking cruises right now. I made a major mistake booking the 15-day cruise on the Gem from NY to SJ Oct.15-30 2016.

 

The cost for a BX on the 15-day cruise is 2339 base fare, no taxes, however, when booked separately as a B2B 8-day and 7-day the fare is 1948, up to $800 less. You do end up paying 2 deposits but it's quite a savings in the end. Some of the other cruises around that same time frame may have the same pricing issue.

If it is before the penalty period they simply re book the cruise under the same reservation number and all.

 

But be carefulness! We have seen a few price drops for one family traveling with us, but the amount of OBC that they would lose negated any saving. You also will lose whatever promo you booked under if it has changed. Another friend, however, has saved 200 dollars on her mini suite , and she didn't lose any Obc. Timing and demand are everything, I guess!

 

I have not seen a price drop after final for my particular cruises, so I cannot comment on that. Comments here on Cc have said that some cruisers receive OBC or upgrade if there is a drop after final, but results seem to vary.

We are 60 days out and our suite went UP 475 dollars pp last night.

I love the fish!

It doesn't affect me, but there is something about paying less than " sticker price" that makes me feel good. We had already seen 1000 pp increase since we booked in August.

 

Yikes!
