ottawapuppy Posted April 12, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2008 If we book cruise air, does RCL/X have preferred rates for business or first class? Anyone have a recollection of what they paid to get to Rome in 1st while paying cruise air? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty9 Posted April 12, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2008 You will find that the special air rates are for coach class only. For the most part, the mass markets don't do business or first with reduced rates. When I flew to Rome from Chicago for a cruise, the first class airfare was $5300 for one way. I checked for first class round trip and the cost was, get this, $14,200. On the luxury lines, they do negotiate for better business class fares, but they still aren't all that cheap. To fly from Chicago to Copenhagen, we had to pay an additional $1700 one way, to upgrade to business class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That fare is far beyond what we can afford so it's good to settle, mentally, that it's not an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
