DukeASUGirl Posted October 3, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Is this just for Cruise Planner purchases, or do they ever do a Black Friday cruise-fare sale? We had to cancel our Harmony cruise that should have begun today - thanks Hurricane Ian! We won't have time to schedule this now until after the kids get out of school in May, but my now-12-yr-old will be 13 by then so bye-bye Kids Sail Free for her. 😞 Now that it will end up being 1 kid and 3 adults, I'd really like to find a better sale than the $550 + 30% off that they're offering right now, but maybe that isn't a thing.

GTO-Girl Posted October 3, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 3, 2022 I am hoping for some Black Friday cruise sales too because right now the prices of cruises are just crazy!! We want to book something for after the first of the year but I am waiting for some better pricing… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted October 3, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Don't know what this year will bring but in past years it's been nothing special, basically an extra $75 in OBC or something similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare blueslily Posted October 3, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 3, 2022 (edited) Good luck to the OP. On what specific date does the Black Friday sale start? I know it can vary by retailer, so I want to make sure I know when to check for what Royal has to offer? Thanks Edited October 3, 2022 by blueslily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise a holic Posted October 3, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 3, 2022 Prices are crazy. Not only for the cruise, but for all of the exra's. The lines are clearly trying to make up for all of the lost revenue. So sad since many of us have lost income during the pandemic. We love to cruise and enjoy entry level suites, but will have to adjust. I don't know if any meaningful sales will happen as many prices have more then doubled.

Yes, I had similar thoughts that Black Friday this year might not be all that exciting since demand is pretty high and some people are actually paying the higher prices. The prices earlier this year for sailings earlier this year and the add on items were nice. But, since folks are back and excited to cruise, not so much. My early December cruise has some ugly prices for the add on items. 🙁 its before the holidays so it's not due to the holidays either. I often sail that same week and get better prices. Oh well. I'm still hopeful and will check for any BF deals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katems75 Posted October 3, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 3, 2022 If you've already booked and the price drops during Thanksgiving can you call and get the price lowered? What if you are part of a group? Will they lower the price for everyone in the group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a planner item drops its easy to go cancel it online. Then you just rebook it. I'm hoping for some excursion sales. Or anything else. I always look. .. just in case. You have to cancel the planner item yourself and rebook it and wait for a refund. Obc refunds immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
