possum52 Posted April 24, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I was looking at the cruise we are doing in November to NZ on the Golden Princess from Melbourne. I noticed that mid aft cabins on Caribe deck where ours is, had dropped in price. I decided to call Princess late this afternoon and we were able to have the price drop - a saving of $120. Not a fortune, but better in our pocket than theirs. Very pleased for myself for calling. Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiliburn Posted April 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Did you book direct or through a agent. I usually cruise with RC and I’ve been burnt a few times. The agent blames the cruise company,the cruise company blames the agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiliburn Posted April 24, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 24, 2018 That’s probably why,good on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaz cruiser Posted April 25, 2018 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2018 That is one of the reasons I love Princess. If the price drops before you make your final payment and you call them they will match the price! No risk to booking early! Well worth keeping an eye on the prices...

Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted April 25, 2018 #8 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Agreed, Princess are excellent at refaring when prices drop but you do have to keep checking regularly. Some price drops don't last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sewgood Posted April 25, 2018 #9 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I have never had a problem with Princess giving me the price drop. That's why it's great being on the roll call. If you don't notice the price drop, chances are someone else will especially on the repositioning cruises. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MicCanberra Posted April 25, 2018 #10 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Good job, just remember for those who cannot manage a price drop, sometimes an upgrade to the next category cabin will be manageable and would take advantage of the price drop in a round about way..
