I had my TA re fare an August 2021 Baltic Marina cruise and saved over $700 pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not looking at cruise for this year so never check No, I just happened to look at my reservation in my account online, saw the price had dropped, and had my TA re book at the lower fare. I will monitor at least once a week to see if there are anymore reductions. I am booked in a cat G inside guarantee but O has me a cabin assigned. As of today, that category is waitlisted. This is the least expensive cabin on the ship and there are only 4 so they sell fast. O uses them as advertising "starting at" fares that look enticingly low. This is the first time I have ever been able to book one. Edited May 4, 2020 by susiesan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the cruise today ( 5-5 2020) and the fare was $3000 less for a PH... Some were only $2300 less. Asked my agent to re fare was 16K now 13K US( rounded) Just look, I did it today Are you looking in Canadian dollars or using Computer Aided something My prices are in american dollars If Canadian maybe because of the instability of the money ....I do not know Edited May 5, 2020 by Hawaiidan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tropicalkerry2002 Posted May 5, 2020 #158 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Thanks Dan! I guess the first time I looked at the cruise, it was already at the sale price, unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cayman09 Posted May 6, 2020 #161 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I've been booked since last June with no change in price. Strange thing is, all PH categories are $600-900 LESS on the 2022 sailing yet both are listed on the "Ultimate" sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phelios2 Posted May 6, 2020 #163 Share Posted May 6, 2020 There was no change listed on the website yesterday for my April 2021 cruise (Marina Transatlantic) but when my TA called in the price dropped by $1000 for my category of room (A1 with Single Supplement Special).

Shawnino Posted May 6, 2020 #164 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I do hope that people are getting reductions, but I hope all CCers are not throwing new money at this. (Well, the ones on my ignore list can have at it...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why O would keep selling cruises that they know will be cancelled to new passengers. I doubt there will even be regular flights to Europe from the US, Canada, or Australia to meet these cruises. maybe these sailings will be full of Europeans only.

I do not understand why you think they would give you the lower rate now 🙄 Things can change by 2022 & the prices may rise or the 2021 sailing could drop I think at the moment they may have other more important worries Just saying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnies Posted May 7, 2020 #171 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I have just received an email from Oceania with the subject “The Ultimate Sale. Major Price Reductions.” I compared the cost of our Concierge Stateroom for August 2021 from some weeks ago to the cost listed today and guess what it’s the same! I should mention that we live in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a B2B2B on the Marina this Fall that we cancelled but would have saved over $3k from the prior fare if we kept the bookings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However the cruise in question was “attached” to the email advertising the price reductions. A little misleading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I was looking for the new rate (insert she roll). I understand that they have a lot to worry about, so why add to their woes with multiple cruises in a "Sale" marketing piece that really do not have any reductions (see "Sunnies" post as well)?I I still intend to sale, if cruising is possible. I was merely bringing up an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
