Only $900 deposit on a $46K trip? If one could afford the IS at that price and had to cancel, forfeiting the deposit is loose change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL These people were so very low-keyed and un-assuming around me and I understood their desire for privacy and not making any new friends outside of the activity we were involved in. Are you taking one out on one of the 52 night segments?? bon voyage For the last segment in NZ we are. Three years now, including 2022, no vacations and YOLO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are passengers who may do things like leave a very expensive and sentimental item hanging on a chair at a Grand Cayman resort and then pay for someone 👀 to fly a person from Chicago to Grand Cayman to retrieve it, deliver it back to their home, then fly back to Chicago.

Just think of how many drinks you can really drink - you wont drink it all.. and the ones you will drink wont cost the price you pay for the "all drinks included".

Pinboy Posted January 23, 2022 #39 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Well, when WE stayed in The Iconic Suite it was a beautiful experience ---- Never gave the cost a thought !! Nothing I could find to complain about, lots of great food, excellent service from 3 Butlers ( 4 shrimp cocktails even if I ordered only 3 ) , a fridge full of Diet Cokes , etc, etc---- and, and, Then I woke up from my dream !!!! 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastdance Posted January 23, 2022 #41 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I was looking at cabin/suite prices a week ago and found a refundable rate for just 3,800+ more for a sky suite. I think that was actually a mistake, unlike the Iconic Suite which was the only available suite left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason to leave the suite. Oh I don't know, how about ports, excursions, casino, shows, games, experiencing different restaurants and their ambience. Interacting with others, shopping, just to name a few. Then there is the pool if you're in to that sort of thing, and the gym. Lot's of reasons to leave depending on a person's point of view. But your money, your choices. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miched Posted January 23, 2022 #49 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Go all the way thru the booking and see the prices for the suites on the E class. The Edge Villa and above suites all go for a lot of money. I have a cruise a booked on the Beyond in Mar 2023 in a SS the price is $2549 pp. the Edge Villa is $10,300 and the Iconic is $22,200 pp. this is for a 7 day cruise. Other dates are higher. I choose that date because of the “reasonable” rate for a SS especially on a new ship. Will they give it away because it is not booked? I don’t think so. It will remain empty. Why put extra wear and tear on it? Look at the prices for PH suites on other cruises. Happy cruising 🌊🚢🇺🇸🌅 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sister-in-law had a RS a couple of doors down from our PH on the Constellation. She kept showing up at our door for ice. We went with the EV on the Beyond because RS and PH on Deck 12 are under the overhang. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
