4ready2cruz Posted March 3, 2016 #1 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I recently booked with the VIFP Exclusive Early Saver option. There is now another VIFP Exclusive ES available and the fare is lower than what I initially paid. My question is, since the details of the offer say "for bookings made between March 1 and April 30", can I ask for the price difference since I actually booked in February? Thanks in advance. This my first time booking with early saver, so not really sure what the benefits are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerReuv Posted March 3, 2016 #2 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Yes you can. I just booked ES on Monday for a cruise next year and price matched today to the new ES VIFP with a lower rate, $50 OBC. However, when I originally booked on Monday it was $100 per person deposit. This new sale is half off deposits. Which meant that I had to pay an addition $50 toward the deposit so I did not lose my booking. That is something important to remember. If I price match to something else later that requires full deposit then I will have to make sure I have paid enough for that. Many stories on here of people not realizing that and their cruise being cancelled due to not enough deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4ready2cruz Posted March 3, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Thanks for the reply. Our cruise is already paid in full even though we are before final payment (don't sail until July). Hopefully that does not make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephkd Posted March 3, 2016 #4 Share Posted March 3, 2016 If you're paid in full you will just get it as an OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerReuv Posted March 3, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Yes OBC is what you will get. Also, with ES you can price match up to two days before the cruise so don't stop checking those prices! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdbmga Posted March 3, 2016 #6 Share Posted March 3, 2016 Yes OBC is what you will get. Also, with ES you can price match up to two days before the cruise so don't stop checking those prices! Do they usually just change rates to pack and go so you can't price match unless you let them choose your room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
