Booked thru TA & price drop over weekend.

[pasodancer]

Believe I already know the answer - but am hoping someone else had this situation occur to them:

 

Booked thru TA and of course, there is a nice price drop in Suite that I will gladly pay to upgrade to (am currently in Balcony). I believe only the TA can make changes to my reservation? Am I basically SOL until the agency opens Monday morning? (FYI – past final payment and I’m paid in full. Had to use a TA as we are a large group).

Sincere thanks!//Maria

Yes, your TA still owns the reservation, so they must handle any changes for you. Good luck tomorrow.

dang dang dang...............of course I'll be sitting in the dentist chair when the TA tries to call me. Oh well!

[pasodancer]

ohhhh, I'm sorry Patti (& Jimmy)............thank you for the quick reply!//Maria

Stop by early at your TA and leave a note so she can call you at the Dentist, and give you good news that she saved you money.

Good luck

Can you do a 24 hour courtesy hold to lock in the price?

[pasodancer]

I called RCI - agent wasn't helpful w/ a hold and would lock out our TA.

 

This calls for patience and a glass of wine!

I booked through a TA but the one I used is open 24 hours a day and u can call with your reservation # and any agent can make changes..

I do have one question for you all: ( it looks like you seasoned cruisers could answer)

How can I see if the price dropped on my cruise if the only rooms available have less people than are in my room? The total price is always different..

[pasodancer]

I use a price alert site that I cannot mention on this site - it give me price per person for the category I'm interested in. LOVE it!

If you just noticed the price drop today it could be due to the screwed up website upgrades. It's been reported that pricing has been all over the place, people owing money on paid off cruises, etc. What you see today may be totally different tomorrow.

I am so glad that the TA that I use I can reach 24/7; I have her cellphone and email (which goes to her phone) and can text her....then she quickly replies that she will work on the issue.

if you type cruise price drop sites into your browser - the 1 a lot of us use will normally pop up first.

Thank you.. Do u pay ? Or just check every day?

[pasodancer]

I pay $1 per cruise and it tracks the cruise price for me..........by cabin category, sail date, etc. It emails me the alerts up to the time of sailing. Saves me a LOT of time and energy. check out the site - very easy to use.

If there are no rooms left in your category that will hold what you have booked then you will not be eligible for any price drops.

My TA has always told me to do a print screen of the price reduction and It will be honored.
