Chance of bargain cabin on Southampton,Cherborg, Southampton in November

[PvTraveler]

Anyone ever booked last minute on a short cruise out of Southampton ? I did not realize when I booked a TA on November 10, 2010 that the QM2 was actually in port the same day I disembarked from a QE cruise. At the moment Cunard want $832.00 for a single in a D7 cabin. Any chance that might go down if the ship is not full ? At the moment it is about 200.00 pounds to spend the 2 nights in Southampton. Any thoughts ? Thanks.

Cunard's website is offering a belcony cabin for a little over £300 so maybe it would be worth checking for an A or B grade cabin. Mad I know that it could be cheaper. I am hoping for a special offer on this trip as well. The last time they did it they offered a balcony cabin for £199 but I am not holding my breath for that offer again.

Lanky Lad - Thanks for the info. Yes, that is crazy that the balcony is cheaper. I will give the travel agent a call. Look forward to seeing you on this if we get cabins !

Okay, I am confused. Just tried to book here in the US and there is no onboard credit anywhere and I am paying more for an inside. Can I book on the UK site ? No fair !

[cruzadict]

Where do I find how much the onboard credit is please?

Thanks very much, just booked it and got the $400 OBC. Chose cabin 8022 as it seems to have the best view. Has anyone stayed in this one? Never know though, might get an upgrade!!

My mum had 8021 last year and got a good view through the gap, so hopefully you will be ok :)

I had the itch to do a "Winter Crossing" again, and just booked this voyage, from S'oton not Cherbourg, last week. The price had come down, and Cunard added a fuel surcharge to the air package the day after I booked.

 

My TA said that this voyage was pretty much wide open, i.e. lightly booked, so prices may drop as we approach the departure date.

I have also booked on this cruise too with my Mum. Can't wait. We opted for a P2 cabin, again with onboard credit. Is there a roll call for this cruise?

[Officeboy]

yes

[Jaydog]

Do you know where it is or ahve the ling please? I couldn't find it so just set up a roll call. Thank you.

 

I have never been on such a short cruise before.
