mommysoncruiser Posted November 16, 2021 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I did a mock booking of my cruise last night and nothing had changed. I did a mock booking today and nothing essentially changed except that I got a cruise event price with OBC (same price just with OBC now). So I cancelled my original booking which had no OBC and booked the "cruise event" rate with $200 OBC. There is no sale advertised that was different from the day before nor is there any sale besides the 50% off second guest sale. So, is there a secret sale going on?

Did you by chance book an Indulge or Elevate package which would give you OBC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second is from my rebooking today. Don't know what the CRUISE Event is! I'm happy but I did not see any type of advertisement for it. I just happen to check pricing daily by doing mock booking and this happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise Gopher Posted November 17, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 17, 2021 You may have got lucky and booked when they had some sort of IT glitch, maybe that is an upcoming promotion for Black Friday and they accidentally turned it on early and then turned it off again? The RCLCARES line item is interesting though, as that is only for Travel Agents to input on bookings. Are you a TA also? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EffortlessVoyages Posted November 17, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 17, 2021 There is are two $50 OBC categories with cryptic descriptors showing for that sailing so that may be what you are accessing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should watch it through Black Friday to see if maybe there is something upcoming. I though it was strange but I'm glad I was able to get it.

We will be home for a week before we go on another 28 day cruise to Hawaii and French Polynesia. Then another 10 day after that one. Going to be gone for a third of the year next year 😂😂😂. Hopefully nothing gets cancelled! 😣 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfs2k Posted November 17, 2021 #12 Share Posted November 17, 2021 The revenue department is always adjusting rates to fill up each ship. You caught it at the right time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
