Biker19 Posted June 14, 2020 #157 Share Posted June 14, 2020 No, the GGG flier editor has not started work yet, but I noticed that the Sep/Oct/Nov Mariner and Navigator 4 day sailings (the ones with the best chances of happening) have not moved much from their $50-60 pppd starting prices.

Biker19 Posted October 19, 2020 #158 Share Posted October 19, 2020 (edited) Still no flier but Mariner 1/15/21 MLK weekend has good prices. Biker, who is tempted but will stick to his no booking till sailings resume policy. Edited October 19, 2020 by Biker19 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted March 11, 2021 #159 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) I think today is the one year anniversary of the last GGG flier. Is RCI about to hire the editor back? Will that job and the GGG ever come back? Edited March 11, 2021 by Biker19 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biker19 Posted September 3, 2021 #161 Share Posted September 3, 2021 No, the GGG flier editor still has not been rehired, but, you may want to check out pricing (including solo) on Oasis sailings from 9/26 through the end of her season in NY. RCI is really trying to entice folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbeyg Posted September 7, 2021 #163 Share Posted September 7, 2021 (edited) Oasis in early December is very low too. We booked an OV balcony for a fantastic price today. Currently OV balcony is less than the price for a OV window. Thanks for the heads up @Biker19. We were watching Harmony for early December, but Oasis was $600 less for the same category. 🙂 Edited September 7, 2021 by barbeyg 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare OCSC Mike Posted April 24, 2022 #166 Share Posted April 24, 2022 (edited) What is the "alternative one" and how does one find it? EDIT: Sorry, shouldn't post before coffee. I followed that URL and found the deals. How does one book these? I see the Booking link sends me to cruisingpower.com which appears to be an official RCCL site. Do I just create an account and book through there as I would on the main RCCL site or is this for travel agents only?

Travel agent rates are not published and are a set cost per day based on cabin category and ship class. The friends and family rates posted above certainly do get the double points. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what they told me on Friday. You should know that if you call several times you can get several different answers. I would definitely be calling back as the terms only specify Travel agent rates which as I mentioned are completely different than the TA Friends and family rate which anyone can be booked into. The TA rates are more like the interline rates which are deeply discounted Edited April 24, 2022 by Ourusualbeach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, we are on Oct. 2nd sailing out of Boston. Right now they list insides starting at $291, but when we booked earlier this year, they were around $180, IIRC. All suites are sold on that itinerary except for JS GTY. Just randomly looking at different cabin classes, I'd say it's about 75% booked, but still some decent deals to be had.
