they dont know i'm booked..sigh

[luckyinpa]

why can we send an automated car across the country but not fix this. i get email about my specific cruise date saying that i looked at that date but i havent booked yet.  (i realize when you check pricing 10x a day you get the emails). it says so go and book but i booked last week. a minor thing to be sure but wish the marketing dept talked to the booking dept. makes them look bad

Do you log in when looking at pricing?

 

If so, consider looking at pricing without doing so, that may solve the issue for you, as it did for me...

 

Because then, there is no way for X to know what you were looking at or pricing.

It could definitely be done but it’s one of those things where the squeeze isn’t worth the juice when it comes to the cost and effort to make it happen from a systems perspective. The cost to send a potentially obsolete email is way less expensive than developing the means to ensure you aren’t getting that email after you have booked. Just delete it and enjoy your cruise...

In addition to not signing in for dummy bookings, I use a different browser with VPN.

I use open an incognito window when checking pricing. I'll check my state and senior rate but not use my captain's club number.

Did you put your new reservation into the My Celebrity,

Unless you use an Incognito window when checking pricing you'll get the follow up emails asking you to complete your booking after you check pricing. The reason you'll get those emails even after you've booked a specific cruise is you could be checking to book another cabin on that sailing for family or friends. To avoid them, use Incognito when checking (or shopping in general).

I never sign in or add Captains Club # unless I am doing check-in or purchasing something in the Cruise Planner.  Result - no emails.

Are you using incognito because you think X means X rated  😱🤗
 

Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅

Leave the incognito mock booking by clicking the Celebrity Logo and when they say "hey--wanna book this" click on "dismiss"

Just delete the Email.

Wow... I've been checking various rates with mock bookings many times a day and don't get any e-mails.  I'm logged in and not using VPN or Incognito.   I must not be SPECIAL like the rest of you.

Just a suggestion on this topic .

Even after I book , from time to time I check our cruise to see if there is a price change that I can take advantage of prior to final payment date .  On a cruise a few years ago I noticed that our cabin was available for purchase .

Somehow between the transfer from Celebrity to our TA an error was made and it took " weeks " to straighten it out . 

Sounds simple, but, it wasn't .

errors like this is how i got my free upgrade. i snagged a room, with my TA, that wasnt supposed to be inventory. someone else dropped the ball. my gain. so they got the room they wanted and i can try CC for free. win win. they probably offered the person that stole your cabin the same deal.
