But this one sounds somewhat promising and is similar to what Celebrity is doing right now with their 50% off second passenger sale. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OrcaGirl Posted November 10, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Sounds like they're taking that 60% off second guest promo from a few weeks ago (which was really just the 30% off each guest by a different name) and doing the same thing with the current promo... 35% off first two guests = 70% off second guest, non? But the $250 OBC is nice, kinda wish I'd waited another couple weeks to book. (My cabin for a December sailing is already dropped another $100 in the last week, but I'm past final payment...) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milolii Posted November 10, 2021 #3 Share Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) Ty for the tip. The current promotion is 35% off. A few weeks ago the offer was 60% off the second person which followed a 30% off. Many reported no change in their fare between the 30% off and the 60% off passenger # 2. The 30% off ran for quite a long time. Still some may benefit. I certainly will take a look. And as you say we will see if the prices are adjusted. Agree the OBC is a added perk, and maybe the extra person free. Edited November 10, 2021 by milolii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacation44 Posted November 10, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I read it as $250 in FCC and not OBC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct, I saw the 'Free $250' in the graphic and made the assumption that it was OBC, but the article specifies FCC. Which means we can expect a dozen or more new threads on here debating if that amounts to false advertising... 😉 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandncruisers Posted November 10, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I just looked at a few cruises with the 35% off for next April and every one that I have been keeping my eye on has actually gone up in price by hundreds of dollars. I will wait for now and hope they come down in price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PhillyTravelBug Posted November 10, 2021 #9 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I’ve been waiting to see what their offer would be to hopefully get a deal on a Canadian cruise for next year. Now let’s see if the prices adjust or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kuku77254 Posted November 10, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I just booked. If fares are lower next week, will they give me the lower or would I need to rebook everything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deliver42 Posted November 10, 2021 #11 Share Posted November 10, 2021 I was looking at a cruise on the Joy for 2024. The web site has totally changed. No choice of cabin, one was assigned, but nowhere can you see where it is. The old was was good that way. I know I can call and have the decks in front of me, but there was no mention of a catagory either. I don't understand what they're doing. maybe some of you are more familiar then me. Thank you.

I saw the same thing this morning when I went through Firefox. (Using Chrome, for same cruise and date, I saw the regular site.) If you look at the offered cabin, look below for another spot to click on that lets you click on 'Choose a different stateroom'. At that point, it lets you search by deck which is kind of cool as you can find many more available cabins. Family Balcony Best Available These Balcony staterooms are perfect for the whole family. With room for up to four guests, they include two lower beds that convert to a queen, a double sofa bed, spacious bathroom plus a balcony to admire the sparkling waters and beautiful vistas together. Some can connect to other staterooms so you can spread out yet stay close. Details & Floorplan or Choose a Different Stateroom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted November 10, 2021 #21 Share Posted November 10, 2021 Another somewhat disappointing year for NYC cruises during the summer. No more Bahamas and Florida cruises during the summer like what they used to do before. This used to be favorite type of cruise to do around May/June 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastcat Posted November 11, 2021 #22 Share Posted November 11, 2021 All these lovely discounts for second guests/additional guests... wonder if we solos will be offered any useful discounts. I've just booked two Spirit sailings for Alaska (2022 and 2023) and will do a price check when the new sale begins. At least NCL finally restored the option to filter by Solo Cruiser Discount! That went missing in late 2019 with the site redesign but it's back again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare craig01020 Posted November 11, 2021 #23 Share Posted November 11, 2021 (edited) Something weird is going on with the website. I was looking at a 9-day Mediterranean cruise in April/May 2023. The prices look slashed, but if I click on them, they're not nearly as cheap. Edited November 11, 2021 by craig01020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That went missing in late 2019 with the site redesign but it's back again. Does it actually filter to solo discounts or does it just give you ships that have solo cabins? The filter for solo cabins has been there, just not always easy to find. But it would be nice to be able to find actual solo discounts - currently I have to rely on my PCC to remember to tell me.

But don't hold your breath. 70% off the 2nd guest is the same as 35% off the total fare 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
