bowbiter Posted July 10, 2011 #1176 Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Don't think this is a bargain but I don't think it's bad either. Just booked a single on the 11-day NCL Dawn for Nov 2 for $1814.05 for an inside cabin with $200obc. I don't think it's that bad considering I waited so long to book and it is over a holiday. 11 days of a bathroom all to myself sounds wonderful :D And I have lots of cruise critic friends on the cruise with me.

Hi Kelly,:) as long as you are happy with the price that is all that matters:). I am going to Bermuda in September for 7 nights. I was able to get one of the biggest window cabins on the ship for 1600.00. I also have an obc although mine is 100.00 bucks. This cabin I got is almost twice the size of a regular one and has a BIG WINDOW....it is the size of picture window:)...a normal cabin is about 175 sq feet and this one? It is almost 300 sq feet:D. ...I always sail solo and sometimes I get a inside, sometimes a window and sometimes I am able to get a balcony. Is my cruise a bargain? I doubt it....but I am good with the price I paid too. Have a wonderful cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as I am comfortable with the cabin price, and it fits within my budget, then I'm good to go. I'm doing a 7 day Eastern Med. on the Celebrity Equinox at the end of Oct. of this year. I booked an extended balcony 2C cabin for $1565 all in with a $150 onboard credit. Was it a deal for the record books? Not by a long shot. Am I excited to visit Italy, Greece, and Turkey?- you betcha!!:D Tony Edited July 11, 2011 by tgmtgm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruiser733380 Posted July 13, 2011 #1185 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Celebrity has some great promotions for Spring 2012. I was able to book a 7- night Caribbean cruise in a balcony for around $1000 solo. That was after the Celebrity promo and my TA OBC of $300 which I applied to the cruise.

Cruiser733380 Posted July 13, 2011 #1187 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Hi, congrats:) what ship? Itinerary? It is on the Summit out of San Juan. I love the ship and the free use of the thalassotherapy pool. I was able to snag one of the "sweet sixteen" extra-large balcony cabins. It will be perfect in every way!

Rare Lois R Posted July 13, 2011 #1194 Share Posted July 13, 2011 The Century must be the sister ship to the Mercury. Is she still sailing? and where? Yes, Century was the first C class ship and yes she is still sailing:) I went on a repositioning from San Diego to Vancouver. She is now in Alaska for the summer and will be doing Hawaii after the Alaska season ends. She will do Alaska next summer as well. You can check the Celebrity website for each itinerary.

bqkali Posted July 14, 2011 #1195 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Celebrity Millenium has a 64% supplement (rather than full 100%) on the November 14, 2011 sailing. Base prices are low, so this makes it a decent final price. Insides start at $539 for a solo cabin, and the upgrades for outside or veranda are reasonable as well. Not the world's greatest deal, but not bad for a short getaway (5 nights with ports at Roatan and Cozumel) and an excellent ship :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bqkali Posted July 14, 2011 #1196 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Found another one! Voyager of the Seas at 30% supplement AND low base price on December 10. Inside starting at $504 ($774 outside, $809 veranda) - yes, solo prices. 7 nights to Western Caribbean including Cozumel, Falmouth, Grand Cayman. I've never been on RCCL, but maybe it's time to try it...great price, and hits two things on my cruising bucket list: the chance to go to Dunn's Falls AND the chance to cruise a big ship!

There were a lot of bargains with Century so I would imagine Millennium which has more cabins to fill will also offer a lot of bargains. Make sure to check to Tuesday specials.

Thanks for posting this, I love the Voyager class ships! Haven't been on Voyager for a bit; will give this SERIOUS thought because it's a great price...for some reason, took me a while to duplicate your Inside price :confused: OBTW, check your C&A certs...I had one for this cruise!! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
