Host Joe Posted September 25, 2006 #2 Share Posted September 25, 2006 There are a couple of ways that you can check... one is like you mentioned, check with who you booked through, but a quicker way is to use the cruise line's website or any of the major online booking agents. Happy cruise planning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lougee1043 Posted September 25, 2006 #3 Share Posted September 25, 2006 if you are inside the cruiselines window for final payment you may not be entitled to get the lower price---depends on the cruiseline and its policy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribbean dreams Posted September 25, 2006 #4 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Carnivals PVP's are usually really good at getting you a price drop, upgrade or onboard credit if the price goes down, like the above poster states, just go to the Carnival online sites and watch the prices, I usually call my TA every once in a while and have him check for me.

scgirl816 Posted October 4, 2006 #5 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Does a TA care if you ask about price drops? Does it affect how they are paid? I want to ask my TA, but she is also a family friend, so I don't want to offend her. I noticed there is a price drop on our cruise of $50 pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imnance Posted October 4, 2006 #6 Share Posted October 4, 2006 What if you are cruising with a group at a supposed group rate? Would a group be eligible for a discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherylandtk Posted October 4, 2006 #7 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Usually groups are not eligible for the price drops, as they are already booked at a discounted rate and are receiving amenities. You would have to give up the group amenities, and change your booking. If its after final payment, that involves penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imnance Posted October 4, 2006 #8 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I figured something like that. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scgirl816 Posted October 4, 2006 #9 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Oh, I think we are at a group rate. Oh well. What are these group amenities? I haven't heard of anything yet from our TA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
