The price for the dates I'm sailing are going up and up and UP!

For my Jan 7th cruise we paid $10 less pp for a balcony than the current price for an inside, and the price for a balcony is $190 pp more : / all my dreams for an ES price drop have disappeared! I guess its good we booked when it was low!

The price for my cabin category is now $100/pp more than when I booked. I feel VERY fortunate I booked when I did.

We paid about 200.00 pp less than what the final price was for our Miracle cruise, I was really happy I got such a great price!!! OBC is nice, but I'd rather have the money in my pocket any day!!!

Cheers, Carole

Good old supply and demand in action.

I booked ES thinking our cruise price would go down but all it did was go up, uP, UP! I'm curious who gets these price reductions, are they people who book when the rates are UP?!?

 

Or maybe not. We booked extremely low inside, then last week received an upsell on a balcony, price was too good to be true! Since there were no other balconies available, I priced the same cruise at the same time next year. It appears if I booked next year's SAME cruise with the upsell, it would cost me another $300!

I booked ES for the first time on my Valor cruise and not one single price drop. The price for it continued to go up and up. I just hung up the phone with Carnival 20 minutes ago checking prices for the Spirit to Alaska next year. I can book an interline rate for about the same price as early saver. Interline is $150 cheaper than the regular list price. I'm thinking I should go ahead and book it. With Alaska being so popular, I really can't see any ES price drops. Ugghhh!

Both our Magic cruises out of Galveston, Dec & Aug, have gone up. At one point the Dec. one did go down some before final payment was due & we got some taken off our total, but now it's more for sure!

Gotta love Early Saver! Currently, the price for what we booked (cabin with balcony) on the Liberty has gone UP $140.00 pp. since we booked it. Too bad the other cruise lines don't have their own Early Saver.:)

All of our cruises over the last month have gone up, up, up.

My wife and I always book early saver. We save a lot of money.

1 of our cruises has never gone down since we booked it. We know that we booked it at it's lowest price. Another cruise we have already gotten a nice OBC. Didn't think we were going to see any reduction since it was already a great price.

 

You get OBC when you book the cruise when the rates are up and then the price drops. So if you hear of people getting OBC because of price reduction, it just means they booked the cruise at a higher price.

We booked Early Saver for our cove balcony for 3 on the Dream in May, for March 2012. The total price has dropped $40. My sister in law waited to book until last week for the same cruise. The price for 2 people went up $300, Early Saver no longer available. I didn't have the heart to tell her. Our PVP told her to book earlier next time if she could.
