midwesthiker Posted February 7, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Is it hard to get the price drop? I booked online originally and have never talked to anyone at Carnival. I see mine is $80 pp cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene109 Posted February 7, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I would call and tell them and see what they can do for you! I talked to my pvp and she said that they give you on board credit up to two days before your cruise! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club Disney Chandler Posted February 7, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Is it hard to get the price drop? I booked online originally and have never talked to anyone at Carnival. I see mine is $80 pp cheaper. Go to carnival.com, (the desktop site, not mobile site), and scroll to the bottom of the page, then click on "Price Protection Form" and fill it out. We had our price changed in less than 5 minutes. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsAllAboutTheSass Posted February 7, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Rates can change multiple times a day Sent from my iPhone using Forums Yes. On my 2014 Breeze cruise, I got 5 drops in 1 day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely book that rate because I don't like restricted fares and know my plans may change. If you book any other fare, you only get drops until final payment.

scmom77 Posted February 7, 2017 #17 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Can you still get price drops if all you have done is put down deposit or does the whole cruise need to be paid off? I booked early saver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachella Posted February 7, 2017 #19 Share Posted February 7, 2017 How do you check price, by doing a "fake" booking? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked early saver. Yes. Be sure if you booked a reduced deposit rate to check to see if the lower price also includes it. Same for any other special promotion you got at booking such as OBC. And make sure you will retain your cabin, that is you are not matching to a Guarantee rate. If you booked through a TA, the TA has to request the drop.

Brown815 Posted February 7, 2017 #21 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Ours went up a couple of hundred dollars, but I will keep checking. We are past final payment and we sail on April 16th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nealstuber Posted February 7, 2017 #22 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I'm seeing some whacky quad pricing on Breeze and Dream. Was looking to get an inside for DD and three friends as a graduation gift. While 3rd and 4th person inside pricing was over $700pp during that prime time, it was only $300pp and change for 3&4 in the balcony. The Balcony quad actually worked out cheaper than the inside. Still more than I'm willing to pay, but I'll keep looking. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crzndeb Posted February 7, 2017 #23 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Also she said rates can change daily! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Just be aware that if you have another price drop, you will more than likely lose that $50 OBC, unless the new offer also includes OBC.

Mzsnap Posted February 7, 2017 #24 Share Posted February 7, 2017 If I'm reading correctly on the Price Protection form, the terms and conditions that you are required to agree to state that you may have to forfeit your cabin assignment to get the OBC for the price drop??? Does anyone with experience know how likely I am to lose my current cabin by requesting the OBC? I have a cozy little cove balcony below Guest Services that I'd really like to keep!

Sent from my iPhone using Forums If are asking for a price adjustment that is also early saver , which I would assume you are, then your room will not change. This only happens if you change to super saver or another rate in which carnival picks your room. I usually just call them but when I called tonight they told me to fill out the form. I think they are getting overloaded with price drops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
