Price Drop Denied

[dave_k58]

I requested a price drop for our Catagory 8F balcony ( lido - midship) because the other catagories had all dropped. 8G on Panorama ( more expensive than the 8F on the Lido) dropped but the 8F was not even listed on the booking engine for that date. I guess this means it is sold out. I called Carnival and they confirmed it was denied but couldn't really give me much of a reason.

You have to match your cabin exactly. If there are no category 8F cabins left, there's nothing to price match to. If the 8G's are less expensive, then you should upgrade to that. You will end up with a better room and they might give you some credit.

Other poster is correct. If your category is sold out then you cannot price match. Happened to me a couple of times. Bad thing was, I was booked through a TA and TA would not even let me upgrade. Last time I booked ES with a TA.

I booked ES with a PVP. I think the cabins are pretty much the same on the Panorama deck - we've never been on the Lido before and I kind of always wanted to try that.

You have to match your cabin exactly. Since the 8F is already sold out there is nothing to price match it to. Since the 8G is less expensive call Carnival and see if you can upgrade to that.

You are not alone. And that's probably why your category is sold out.
