stevexc500 Posted June 27, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) I'm curious if anyone is finding this issue. I have tried multiple devices, OS, browsers, networks...all the same issue. When searching for cruises, if the price comes up in BLACK, you can get through to selecting the stateroom, but then encounter an error. If it's in RED, it works just fine. Example below. Anyone similar? Fixes? Princess reps can get through just fine. Edited June 27, 2022 by stevexc500 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they are updating for the sale that starts June 30th? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Rick&Jeannie Posted June 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I had a similar issue last night. If I clicked on "Select a Stateroom For Me" it would continue for 1 or 2 more screens and then error with similar wording. If I picked my own it sailed on through. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you get the "black" price on your searches? When I select "Choose Location for me," it doesn't go to any other screens, just the error (shown in images on original post) message.

Still got the errors when selecting a stateroom, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROXIETHEHORSE Posted June 27, 2022 #6 Share Posted June 27, 2022 As of Friday, I know they were still having website issues regarding pricing. All is ok on their side when looking at cruisses and pricing, there is a glitch on the customer web page. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrgoodbar Posted June 27, 2022 #7 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I have been having this issue for several days. Waited on the phone over 45 minutes to get a price quote only to be disconnected. Very frustrating! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROXIETHEHORSE Posted June 28, 2022 #9 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Well what happened was… I saw an identical cabin on our cruise at a lower fare. I emailed our cruise planner to ask if we could have some OBC instead of rebooking. she said she didn’t see the lower fare, could I send her what I was seeing, so I did. She said the website was showing discounted fares that it would not allow you to book. I did not try to book the lower fare until it was brought to my attention. Sure enough, you can’t book it…just get an error. She did offer me some extra OBC if I wanted to book the cabin that was the same as ours under the current drink package/WiFi/tips rate. I don’t drink enough to make the drink package worth while, so we kept our original cabin. She was very nice and I appreciated her offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After spending 5 days trying to book a cruise I asked my TA to try and, while he had initial issues on Sunday (yes, he jumped right on it on a Sunday) he was able to put a hold on the cruise and finalize it today. I had been able to get a quote via Live Chat that didn't agree with the pricing I was seeing every time before the site bombed when I chose a cabin. The price that Chat person gave me was $200 per person more than the price that was showing. When my TA was able to make the booking it was indeed at that higher price. I just now checked the web site and everything for that cruise now seems to be working fine - and it has the higher price listed. Soooooo... Perhaps those who are saying the errors when trying to book are related to new (higher) pricing being implemented are correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmmmm, that makes some sense. A sale and $1.00 deposits is coming later this week. So, of course they need to raise the prices for that event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm really hoping the cruises won't suddenly go up. I'm planning to book immediately when the promo takes effect. Note: Sorry about a previous "H, Holly" post. It was supposed to say, "Hi, Holly". Stupid old man with fingers riddled with arthritis. Hope you are having a great time. 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SargassoPirate Posted June 28, 2022 #13 Share Posted June 28, 2022 I think their website is definitely a bit wonky. Recently I was shopping for cruises and found one that I liked. I started the booking procedure and was shocked that there was no single supplement for a solo cruiser. I stopped and went to my big box store travel agency's website to check their prices and found that I would have to pay the single supplement. So, I went back to the Princess website and booked the cruise with no single supplement. The same cabin was available on the next cruise, without a single supplement so I booked it also. Every few days I check the prices for those two cruises with a mock booking and sometimes it will charge the single supplement and sometimes it doesn't. Big box prices have never wavered. She Who Must Be Obeyed says I should feel guilty about taking advantage of the glitch. I don't. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milolii Posted June 28, 2022 #14 Share Posted June 28, 2022 (edited) I spoke with my Cruise Consultant yesterday,. Accord to her the pricing is wrong, hence the reason for the issues. You can call and secure a booking, My price was $100.00 more per person for a suite. It is still a very good deal along with a small deposit. This is for the cruise the OP mentioned. edit: website appears to be working now,, at the pice I was quoted yesterday, but deposit a bit higher.
