mnocket Posted August 30, 2023 #26 Share Posted August 30, 2023 So if you reprice a booking with All Included, do you lose your included gratuities since they no longer part of the All Included package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m panicking someone is going take the time slot I cancelled 3 dining reservations then rebooked them at the reduced rate and at my 6pm time ...it wasn't showing before I tested the availability. Maybe it will help if you sign out and back in for a refreshed booking screen? Your prior booking may still be registered and not cancelled. Or you're missing an element in the booking procedure? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the anomaly? How far off are the guests embarking? Does it relate to category of cabin? Just some thoughts Nothing in my App either. I'm booked to go in January 24 in a Concierge Balcony cabin.

CruisersTimesThree Posted August 30, 2023 #29 Share Posted August 30, 2023 On the app is there someplace where you can see your OBC or do you need to sign into your acct on a web browser! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OBC allowed should show on your booking confirmation..it doesn't online. Or sign in and the OBC and/or balance will show in the shopping area at the top of the page.

Cancelled 4 night specialty dining pkg and booked 5 night specialty dining pkg and managed to save $$ even with an extra night dining! Similar here: went from 'dining trio' (2 dinners plus 1 lunch) to 4 nights (either dinners or lunches) and paying less per visit.🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cruise Junky Posted August 30, 2023 #33 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Thanks for the heads up. I debated cancelling excursions I’d booked under the Memorial Day sale because the Canadian dollar has dropped since then but I saved $55 Canadian. May now book a dinner package. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare duck65 Posted August 30, 2023 #35 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Just finished with an rep from X. It took about an hour but was able to save 144 dollars on seven excursion for my Dec. 23 cruise. Saved from 10 to 36 dollars on each excursion from the flash sale in May. Did take about 30 minutes to get thru, but always like to try and save for extra martini's for the DW.

We had some excursions booked during the Memorial Day Flash Sale and the July 4 flash sale (all using OBC). They are all a lower base price now, so we saved on all of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, the reservation time was snatched up. I had to choose later times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I am cancelling and repurchasing. My online order history looks very complicated because of my repricing activity from the two sales. My online order history sounds like yours. 🤣. But so worth it to cancel and rebook! Love the people here as always great information! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrk2cruise Posted August 30, 2023 #40 Share Posted August 30, 2023 From the original post I thought they were say sale on cruise prices. Glad I came back to this and determined it's Cruise Planner sale. I rebooked both shore excursions I had for Norway next year saving over $200.

SactoSkip Posted August 30, 2023 #41 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Thanks so much, just booked two tours and darn near saved 50%. First time booking through celebrity but like the piece of mind. of the 30 cruises we have been on, this one seems the leanest when it comes to excursions. we just came off a 9 day med cruise and I booked 6 all day cruises, never ever again. By mid afternoon I wanted to just get back in the ship and have a cold beer or two. no more all day, half day is perfecto. skip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SactoSkip Posted August 30, 2023 #42 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Just my thoughts on premium drink package upgrade. We are in aqua and get the basic package and I drink beer and wine with dinner. The upgrade is about $700.:we decided to just pay for coffee drinks as they are about the only thing we would use it for besides upgraded wine at dinner. I do not think their premium wines are that special and I think I can suffer with a mediocre red and save hundreds of dollars. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cruise is a Baltics cruise on the Silhouette, May 2024, Verandah cabin. The previous sale was not available to us but this one is. I booked two excursions on Celebrities website. It is unfathomable how they roll out their sales to some regions and not others. Really not fair, we should all have the same opportunities to save some money. 😕 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think their premium wines are that special and I think I can suffer with a mediocre red and save hundreds of dollars. I have thoughts on this too ... I also have the Classic package and keep contemplating an upgrade and these sales come around and the upgrade cost is never aligned with the sale on the full package which right now shows 35% off ... the upgrade remains at 5% off (I get better with elite discount) and I don't understand why this isn't 35% off too. Why oh why is the upgrade not 35% off too ... ugh. Equally they never discount the Zero package the same amount but this difference I can reason a bit in my mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went ahead and rebooked 3 specialty dining reservations and one shorex which saved me $140 for our upcoming Singapore to Hong Kong holiday cruise. Thank you. I asked my husb if he wanted to play the game for our 1 excursion and 3 pre booked dining res. for ASCENT. He said NO.. He is happy with what we have. Any re do would involve cancellations and re bookings on our BOA ROYAL POINTS card..plus point adjustments! Plus the risk that our desired dinner time slots would be lost.. Guess the clock has run for him with X. Getting excited about trying Cancun in lieu of booking another cruise beyond the 2 we have already!

peterde Posted August 30, 2023 #48 Share Posted August 30, 2023 There are a few shore excursions and dinner reservations that are cheaper at this sale than the last I booked on. Should I call an agent to reprice them so I don’t lose my dinner times or should I just do it online? They are a mix of OBC and credit card paid if that makes a difference.
