stellarose Posted January 30, 2013 #4 Share Posted January 30, 2013 We had our TA change our summer Bermuda trip to OV and it saved us 400 in beverage package, classic. We paid 200 more for OV and got the 600 dollars cl bev package with the 123. See if you can too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saphir Posted January 30, 2013 Author #6 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I reserve in January last (there is already one year) with ***********. I called and it is not possible to take advantage of this promotion (new booking only). However, me I paid $ 2374 / 2 person in C3 and now it's $ 3194 / 2 people! The difference is equivalent to the price of the package Premium Beverage. So I'm not too disappointed. I thought that it y would a sale with discount of 10% last year. I will continue to check. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caspmorn Posted January 30, 2013 #8 Share Posted January 30, 2013 The 123go! program can be applied to old bookings as long as they are updated to the current price. In my case, I had to give up a $200 on board credit and pay $60 per person. Then I got the Beverage Package included. A very good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our TA just took care of it today for our March 31 carib sailing on the Silhouette. We already made final payment. Our cabin price was the same so good there. We had to give up $150 obc, but the Classic Alcoholic Beverage package shows up as $354 per person on Celebrity's website. We're happy!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I gave up a $ 200.00 cabin credit as well, but the price of the cruise stayed the same for me (it had gone up $300.00) I also got free grats from my TA $200.00 for $ 630.00 worth of drink package seems like a great deal. It's kinda funny, I hesitated for years about using an online US based TA and either booked direct or with a local TA who never gave me anything more than a free bottle of wine. Finally after hearing so many reports here on Cruise Critic about people having all sorts of goodies including cabin credits and free gratuities I took a deep breath, counted to three and used one of the Cruise Critic TA's http://www.cruisecritic.com/shipshop/ I have never looked back. I always get really great bonuses for booking with my online TA, and I was very impressed that they got me the free package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you two have a good time on your last cruise, wasn't it over the holidays? We did Crystal again for our Thanksgiving and are taking a stab at Oceania for another Alaska venture next summer. Still reminiscing about our Alaska cruise last summer. That was a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's worth about $40 pp per day. You give up any ship credit and free gratuities though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great hearing from you again Curtis, yes, we went on the Eclipse for two weeks over new years and had a great time. That Elite Happy Hour was fun both on the Eclipse and the Century with you guys. Next cruise a B2B on the Summit starting Jan 4th, maybe Curtis and Gail will be joining us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have limited travel time this year. Probably just the week in July that we already booked. But if this is Jan of 2014, maybe. I'm sure the elite Happy Hour was superb. I'm a little weary however of Celebrity giving out all of these free drink packages as an incentive. Sort of takes the "Elite" out of our free drinks in Michaels' Club.

RoonilWazlib Posted January 30, 2013 #17 Share Posted January 30, 2013 I'm getting confused. I had not been paying attention to the 1,2,3 Go thing because I thought it applied to new bookings only. Then this afternoon I contacted our TA to talk about final payment, and she emailed that she'd gotten us the 1,2,3 Go drink packages. I emailed back to ask how, but have recieved no reply yet. Further, I don't see it anywhere in my reservation on Celebrity's site. Can I get my hopes up that this is true? Or do you think she just made a mistake, maybe mistook me for a different client? I'm too antsy to wait for her email! I want to know now! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveod Posted January 30, 2013 #18 Share Posted January 30, 2013 We too are hoping for a sale soon. We were past final booking and into the penalty period when the sale started (cruise is mid Feb) so there was no cancelling and rebooking possible. I keep hoping for a 10% off, but with the 123 sale extended, I doubt it will come. I am a bit jealous that everyone is rebooking and getting such a great deal on their drink packages!

flames9 Posted January 30, 2013 #19 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Have you tried to get the 1,2 3 Go pkg?? Many that have already paid for their cruise have been able to take advantage of it. One does have to pay TODAYS rat eon the cabin, so it may not be worth it. Doesnt hurt to cal celebrity or cal ur TA!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwool Posted January 30, 2013 #20 Share Posted January 30, 2013 ........ Doesnt hurt to cal celebrity or cal ur TA!! I just called Celebrity (we booked direct) and they allowed me to use the 123 program. This is on a March cruise booked in September with final payment already made. We DID have to pay $300 due to the increased cabin price from September to today, but we received $708 in value. Plus, I was able to cancel my stateroom bar set-up for a credit of $80. So....net cost for the Classic Package is $220 for two people. That's less than $16 per day! :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if it's actually rebooking. We have already made final payment for our March cruise on the silhouette. I called my TA today, and she took care of it. We have the same rooms that we had prior to her calling. I would give your TA a call and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
