disneylover89 Posted December 28, 2008 #1 Share Posted December 28, 2008 I have been watching the 2/14/09 Gem cruise out of New York which is during NY's winter break. More and more cabins have become available but surprisingly the price has gone up. At what point will the cruise become discounted if cabins don't sell? I must say, I am really surprised the the price has increased in the last week. It doesn't make sense to me :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycarla Posted December 28, 2008 #2 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Rather difficult to see the total cabins available. Maybe you are looking at certain categories? If prices have gone up, I would guess they are getting closer to being full. Otherwise, they would be dropping prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Cruise4Ever Posted December 28, 2008 #3 Share Posted December 28, 2008 Once they're done with the upsells (which has already started probably), then they'll start lowering the prices on what's left, usually about 1-2 weeks before it sets sail.

disneylover89 Posted December 28, 2008 Author #4 Share Posted December 28, 2008 I thought the same but there are more categories available that weren't before and still the same number of suites. I was bouncing back and forth between a suite and balcony and definitely more balcony rooms have opened and the same number of suites are still available.

When a cruise doesn't sell well, they decrease the price. The goal is to sail with a full ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
