pyrateslife4me84 Posted November 9, 2023 #53 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Saved several hundred dollars on excursions over what I’d already paid. Really good discounts on Cococay excursions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgemoe Posted November 9, 2023 #54 Share Posted November 9, 2023 DBP price on my May 24 Icon sailing has gone down from $92 to $86 pp pd. I'll be shocked if it goes down much more than that tomorrow. It will need to drop a chunk for us to purchase the DBP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare perfect match Posted November 9, 2023 #55 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Soda package on all 3 of my booked cruises has been $9.99/pp/pd since I booked them. Went down to $8.99 on all three sailings. I doubt it will go much lower than that so I booked them and will cancel and rebuy if they go lower. Internet one device when I booked all 3 cruises was $20.99. Over the past approximately 2 weeks it went up to $22.99. It is now on sale for $20.99, same as it was before it went up. I did save about $20/pp on an excursion in Routan that I had been watching. Labadee prices are looking good on some excursions but they are not live yet. Hopefully soon.

erby2283 Posted November 9, 2023 #59 Share Posted November 9, 2023 (edited) If I booked the refreshment package and applied an onboard credit, if I cancel and repurchase at the lower rate, anyone know how long before the OBC shows back up in my account? If at all? Any chance I can immediately apply it again when I purchase now? Thanks in advance for the answers.

HaveWeMetYet Posted November 9, 2023 #60 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Got the UDP for a 11-night cruise for 285 including gratuity. It includes 6 sea day lunches and 11 dinners. Comes out to 16.80 per meal. Not bad. It was 45 percent off. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So yes, you would be able to use it to repurchase at the lower rate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erby2283 Posted November 9, 2023 #62 Share Posted November 9, 2023 (edited) update: nevermind. Finally got both emails. One the cancellation and one “well that didn’t go as planned.” Lol Is it taking awhile for people to get their confirmation emails? I did try and cancel and rebook the refreshment package and it showed my obc on my account. But “apply credit” button is greyed out when I try to click on it after entering an amount to use. Still I thought it processed but when I log on through the web instead of from the app, it’s still showing in my cart (but can’t apply the credit). I also still haven’t gotten an email regarding my cancellation of the package - which I know I did bc it let me add it to my name.

SquishTheWhale Posted November 9, 2023 #67 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Realise I'm in the UK and looking at a European sailing so different to what you guys are discussing. DBP is £64pd. Soda package £10.75pd. Some shore excursions are 30% but I wasn't tracking prices on any of them so not sure if there's an actual saving. 25% on some on board bits such as the cupcake decorating class which I still think is a joke at £25pp for 45 minutes putting some sprinkles on cakes. I did get the cooler with diet coke (£20.18) and $50 arcade (£33) as was planning to get those at some point anyway. I'm dithering over the 10 photo package. We used to get a lot of on board photos but haven't sailed Royal since Covid and I've heard there may not be many photographers on board now? Can anyone confirm how much it costs to buy 1 or 2 photos on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had booked several excursions a few weeks ago but today have cancelled and rebooked and saved quite a few ££s 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact some of them could have helped in the MDR 😊 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only know b/c we only "purchase" our 2 free photo prints for being Diamond... it's $24.99 per photo (or at least it was on Allure a couple weeks ago).

Max and Ruby Posted November 9, 2023 #75 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Disappointed that my March Wonder of the Seas excursions that I did not book already are the same price as yesterday. The 1 I did book for a decent price months ago is now that same sale price. Only saved on a few lunches. Even internet is the same price as yesterday.
