They are pricing the Sky as if she is a brand new ship with all the bells and whistles. Someone needs to remind FDR that no matter how many times you change the carpet on the Sky, she is still a 25 year old ship 🙄 Right after Del Rio took over and made Sky "all inclusive" for the 3 and 4 day itineraries I did a quick before and after comparison of the prices. "All inclusive" Sky was 3 times what it was before which is enough to keep me away since I can't drink that much to justify the extra cost.

TravelMark Posted March 23, 2023 #31 Share Posted March 23, 2023 It's now March, 2023 and relative prices haven't changed much for the Sky. Suites are priced very high but one can still find a balcony for a much more reasonable price. Don't really understand the delta for the club suites because they're really not much larger than a standard balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My credit card was never charged, maybe because it was so low. So I would be a disappointment to FDR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

March 2020....a month or so before departure...about $1300 cost...sailaway balcony April 2021....$2200.....no drinks or meals Farther out....about $2800....no drinks or meals I am retired and live walking distance to the port. I can live without excursion credit and extra wifi time. Really, absolutely no reason to book in advance. That's a great strategy. Plus with a last minute booking - you will be able to research if NCL has cancelled any ports or if similar cruises on that ship have been able to make the itinerary recently.

Oh man, so FDR only got to keep your money for a couple of months, then he had to turn the sales tax he collected on your behalf to the great state of Cali. He would definitely not be happy with you.
