George C Posted January 12, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2018 agree RCCL prices are like a roller coaster going up and down, our 11/18 suite went down 500 per , rebooked last month, now it is several hundred more than last month, pays to keep checking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzin4fam Posted January 13, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I'm new to cruising with RC. I noticed that the price of our cruise dropped by $500. Do I have to cancel the original booking and rebook? Or is there a way to submit a price adjustment? What is the best way to get the lower price?

Rare maysill88 Posted January 13, 2018 #10 Share Posted January 13, 2018 It is interesting how often the price can change. We got a price drop on 1/4/18, yesterday, and again this morning for our 11/10/18 sailing. Each time I called I got right through to an agent and they repriced it in minutes! Keep checking!

Cruiser from Ohio Posted January 13, 2018 #11 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I am really confused with the non refundable deposit, if you purchase travel insurance when you book is it refundable then or not, cant get a straight answer from RC.

Chiliburn Posted January 13, 2018 #16 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Our last cruise we got rolled,something like $2500 price drop and couldn’t do anything about it. Coming from Australia we are at a disadvantage. RC said call the agent.the agent said call RC. A question Is it best to book with RC or an agent,when it comes to price drop?

Clarea Posted January 13, 2018 #17 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I am really confused with the non refundable deposit, if you purchase travel insurance when you book is it refundable then or not, cant get a straight answer from RC. If you have insurance, and you cancel for a covered reason, then you would get a full refund, including your deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I booked a cruise 18 months out by sailing date my final paperwork was 10 changes, most due to price drops. I check rates for my cruises every day...

RC said call the agent.the agent said call RC. A question Is it best to book with RC or an agent,when it comes to price drop? The booking rules for Australia used to be that you couldn't get a price drop - at all, ever, in any circumstances. So it wouldn't have mattered who you booked through. They have now loosened that up so that you can get a price drop before final payment. I have only done this when booking direct with RCI. Just call them and say you want it repriced. Sometimes the pricing online is for new bookings only but I have been successful in getting some drops. If you book through an agent they may charge fees for the change. You need to check the terms and conditions any time you use an agent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karena1 Posted January 13, 2018 #21 Share Posted January 13, 2018 A couple weeks ago I was able to get an extra obc. It is almost unheard of to get $100OBC for a night cruise and I have it for 6 of our Mariner Cruises. So very happy. But prices have not changed at all. But I am good, got really good prices on the cruises I have booked so I am happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonTheRadioGuy Posted January 13, 2018 #22 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Mine has only gone up. 5/14/18 on Explorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoGurl Posted January 13, 2018 #23 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Thanks for the heads up! I didn’t save anything more because the price is the same as it was from the last price drop, but I got the $50 OBC.

Zach1213 Posted January 13, 2018 #24 Share Posted January 13, 2018 New to cruising here - so it looks like mine went down $70 but so did the onboard credit - was $175 when I booked, now $75. I've already applied that $175 to a drink package. Is it still a decent idea to call? Booked myself online, final payment isn't due yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cruise went down $70 but the obc dropped $100 which means you would owe them $30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
