FloridaMommyof3 Posted June 17, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) Wow! You overpaid by a lot when you booked. I didn't overpay ... I paid what the going rate was at the time. Now that the cruise is getting close I assume they are dropping prices to make sure they cruise full, and I'm reaping the benefits.

sjcruiser Posted June 17, 2014 #7 Share Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) Congrats!!! I think I paid the rock bottom going rate at the time, along with the other 5 cabins that we have, and thats why we're not seeing any obi due to price drops. The price did come down some from when we originally booked on two of the rooms, but we risk loosing our original $100obc for $40-$60 dollars, which meant we are actually taking a loss since we don't want to change rooms. The price is starting to go back up, so we'll monitor it to see what happens in the next 57 days. Edited June 17, 2014 by sjcruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky2 Posted June 17, 2014 #8 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Just did another quick check with a mock booking, and holy hat I got another OBC!! I'm up to $343 and I could not be more thrilled! Google "fareviewer" and check prices through that. Much easier than doing a mock booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelboysmom Posted June 17, 2014 #9 Share Posted June 17, 2014 How do you get this onboard credit when price goes down? Do you have to call Carnival? The price of my upcoming cruise has dropped quite a bit... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky2 Posted June 17, 2014 #10 Share Posted June 17, 2014 How do you get this onboard credit when price goes down? Do you have to call Carnival? The price of my upcoming cruise has dropped quite a bit... Depends on how you booked. If you booked Early Saver (ES) you can receive price drops up till 2 days before you cruise. With some of the other rate codes, you are entitled to price drops up until final payment due date. There are also a few rate codes, where you are not entitled to any price drops. When is you cruise & what rate code are you booked under? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why, but I prefer doing a mock booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
