bikerunner Posted October 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Just found this in multiple areas. Will see how it prices out overall. Celebrity Cruises wants guests to “Have It All” this season as the cruise line announces one of its biggest Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals ever. From November 10 – December 5, travellers who book a cruise on Celebrity can get 75 per cent off a second guest as well as up to $300 in onboard credit for nearly all itineraries through April 30, 2026. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isnt that the same promotion they have offered continuously for the last two years? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Airbalancer Posted October 22, 2023 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Does that mean book prices will start climb now 🤔😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the sales are usually pretty much the same cost. Best options always have been book very early like when cruises newly released or finding a TA that has great group rates, that is the path I always go with.

No they mix it up with $0-500 OBC, 40% off 1st 2 guests, 70 or 75% off 2nd guest, kids sail free, etc. in the end it works about the same. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Book early with TA group rates for the best price... I am not sure what the Celebrity experience will be in a year or two...

Now they are offering $100 obc and raised the price by $138 Canadian. Do they think we won't notice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare binro01 Posted October 22, 2023 #16 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I'm just hoping for a good cruise planner sale. The booking sales all tend to be the same, just wrapped up in different marketing spin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSAtlantic Posted October 22, 2023 #17 Share Posted October 22, 2023 I am hoping for an upgrade classic to premium for $9.99 sale. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer321 Posted October 22, 2023 #18 Share Posted October 22, 2023 X does periodic Flash Sales of as much as 50% off on beverage packages and WiFi but it's never all itineraries, just select sailings. I got 50% off both at the end of June for my Reflection cruise in December but have yet to see a decent sale for my Fall 24 transatlantic crossing. I'm not worried though as it's still a year away.

publicpersona Posted October 22, 2023 #19 Share Posted October 22, 2023 The other thing they don’t realize we’ve all figured out is that the email that says “Sale absolutely ends tonight! Book now!” is a sure indication that tomorrow’s email will be “Extended!” 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting this. I ran the numbers as you suggested. Compared to our very current bookings and recent bookings onboard and via website it is not a great sale or lowest in price as they claim: 75 percent off second guest is 35 percent off 2 guests, and 40 percent off every guest is going on and on, so however they word it.😉 While I was onboard the Equinox this week, they had "upto $500 OBC", of which we got $300 (onboard bkg OBC and the extra promo of upto $500). So not sure if their sale is great. I also think they will increase the basic cruise fare. I also wonder if they will increase cruise fare and include the 3 or 2, now, AI perks. I will, however, watch out for any cruise planner sales during that period. Thanks again for alerting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a suspicion (no data backing this up, but just my thought) that they do these sales on higher port intensive itineraries. For a Transatlantic (or the Antartica cruise I'm hoping to find a deal on) there are more sea days and therefore more time to sit and drink non-stop where they are likely to lose money on a lower priced drink package. I hope I"m wrong, as I really want a deal for our upcoming Antartica trip, but it's my suspicion with these sales 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through email or is it on the App? Just have to check your cruise planner of the App, as the sales for Drink Package are not on every sailing. I have had it for my Nov cruise but not April 24 cruise. Would make it easy if they do it across the board but nope 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
