MSC with Choice Hotels Privileges/Rewards Booking Engine Just a bit of silliness.

[pr8hd]

I must be a bit mathematically challenged, I am having trouble making sense of the "All In" pricing logic for booking a MSC cruise through Choice Hotels/Privileges  In particular, MSC Meraviglia on 02/27/22.  (4 Night Caribbean).  It is this sort of travel industry math and pricing that makes my head hurt.  

 

BELLA Inside $179pp  

 

Bella Upgrade (Balcony)  $179pp

 

Bella Interior All-in (Easy package & WiFi)  $239pp

 

Add 10pp for FANTASTICA experience to the above.  This sells the All-in package for $60pp if you book Bella/Fantastica Inside

BELLA Oceanview $209pp

 

Bella Upgrade (Balcony) $209pp

 

Bella Oceanview All-in  $269pp

 

Same as above, add 10pp for FANTASTICA .  As with Interior, All-in pricing for Bella/Fantastica Oceanview is $60pp.

 

Deal is looking pretty good so far. . .

BELLA Balcony 209pp 

 

Bella Balcony All-in 339pp.  Here's where things get silly. . .   The 'All-in' price difference goes from $60pp to $130pp for a hike of $70pp.   But wait. .   there's more!

 

FANTASTICA Balcony 219pp

 

Fantastica Balcony All-in 369pp.  The 'All-in' Price is now $150pp.  Price hike is now $90pp

 

 

AUREA Balcony $649pp.

Aurea Balcony All-in $679pp (only $30)

 

 

 

SUPERFAMILY  Fantastica $360pp

SuperFamily Fantastica All-Ann $660pp   Now it's up to $300   Guessing that this one is in error. 

 

Already have a deposit on a Fantastica Balcony for this cruise.  May re-book to an Oceanview with All-in.  The price point of $60 vs $150 makes the package worthwhile.  Having a balcony is not a requirement for us, perfectly happy with a window.  We just enjoy having a source of natural light.
