Twin Dad Posted July 7, 2016 #26 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Our Feb 20 5-day cruise on the Independence of the Seas dropped $147 ($30 of which was decrease in insurance). This is on an inside stateroom. I had hoped for larger drop on balcony cabins but as this is the first cruise for with our twins, I can find better uses for the price difference. Like a drink package :p Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayfo Posted July 7, 2016 #27 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Every time I see a special for Royal, the cabin fares come out to be the same or pretty much close to it. I hate to say this but I feel a lot of these sales are similar to a bait and switch or whatever it is called. Hate me if you want but this is my opinion and I do sail Royal. Just a bunch of smoke and mirrors it seems. I checked pricing and my cruise went up a few hundred from their last sale. They're gonna get their money out of you somehow. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisefrost Posted July 7, 2016 #28 Share Posted July 7, 2016 WAKE UP PEOPLE, There are only deals that are not deals when they inflate the price and then discount it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JoePDX Posted July 7, 2016 #29 Share Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) I just priced a cruise I was looking at yesterday. It's now $9.00 more with the BOGO offer. No sale here. :mad: Edited July 7, 2016 by JoePDX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vavasmom Posted July 7, 2016 #30 Share Posted July 7, 2016 I just saved almost $200 on my December Independence cruise. For a variety of reasons, I can't book on release day since I can't guarantee vacation that far in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pspercy Posted July 7, 2016 #31 Share Posted July 7, 2016 My 12/2017 trip came down a tad so I upgraded to a balcony. I received the C&A balcony discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiGal117 Posted July 8, 2016 #33 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) I booked a March 2018 Freedom cruise today- was it cheaper when it first came out? Possibly, I wasn't looking then. I'm okay with that the price but will keep watching just in case it does drop (unlikely). Bottom line is be okay with the price when you book - any savings after that are a bonus.

sandebeach Posted July 8, 2016 #34 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I booked a cruise on Tuesday, and the price was higher today with the new sale. So glad I did not wait to book. Checked my other cruises and no price drop. But I was surprised to see my JS on the Indy for New Year's has increased $500 per person! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare lucywestie Posted July 8, 2016 #35 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Checked out my Christmas cruise on the Navigator. After this so called "sale" the cruise is actually $1800 more than i paid for it and the price they quote for the cruise before the "sale" is nearly $2500 more than i paid for it. Such a lot of rot. How do they get away with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UandMe4Ever Posted July 8, 2016 #36 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Replying to my own post LOL...Well, yesterday it was up over $400 more than we paid...Today it seems it's over $500 more...So glad we saw a price drop before this BIG sale...I'll always keep looking. Ya never know. Maybe it'll go down more before our final payment early August. Stay cool and safe :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
