minniemom2009 Posted May 11, 2010 #1 Share Posted May 11, 2010 I would like to book the EPIC for next April or May, but of course I'd like to find some sort of special first ;) Onboard credit or anything, really! I've looked on NCL's website and a few other travel websites, but don't see much out there. Is this just because it's a new ship? Would I be better off waiting a while or just going ahead and booking now? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toras Posted May 11, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 11, 2010 *****.com shows OBC for those dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmdchiefthom Posted May 12, 2010 #3 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I booked two Courtyard Villas for the 2 April '11 cruise, and got two great deals, including my military discount on both suites, with a substantial OBC through our PCC at NCL. I got to choose each Villa based on location, two right next to each other, and center of the courtyard;). What I really like is the OBC is set in stone, and any decreases in the price of the Villas prior to final payment, will automatically be applied to my bookings.:) Priceless!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Us2inFL Posted May 15, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 15, 2010 They change the offers week to week. We got an $800 OBC for a 14 day sailing this coming Oct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DachshundsRule Posted May 15, 2010 #5 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Do you have to ask for the OBC? We are booked in a courtyard villa and the best they would do was an AARP discount. I know if we move our booking to a Travel Agent we could get credits, though I'd like to be loyal to NCL since we've called several times with questions, changes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Us2inFL Posted May 15, 2010 #6 Share Posted May 15, 2010 We've never booked directly with NCL, upsides and downsides. Upside is a greatly reduced price for the cruise from the TA. Upside is better OBC's are offered and compared by TA. (She held off booking this Epic until she found an offer that she liked.) Downside is you don't get to contact NCL for service on the booking. Downside is you need to be aggressive as the cruise date nears if you're interested in a pay (for) upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
