Benefit to booking with a PVP

[EnTnSA]

I have always booked via the website, or just calling in. I have never booked with a PVP. That said, lately, every time i log in to check on cruises I get a call from my PVP. We are considering a cruise in October. Do I gain anything by booking with a PVP vs. booking on the website?

 

Thanks!

If you have any questions, price drops, upgrades and so on you have someone to call.

 

After a few cruises they know what you want, makes life a lot easier.

After doing it both ways, I think it comes down to having a really great PVP. Never thought much about it until I saw the difference. I ask a question, he gets back to me before I even think he's even had time to check his e-mail....I refer a friend to him and they're initial contact from him is literally within the hour.....I had asked for direction to a 'form' requesting a price drop, and before the business day was over, he had completed it for me and sent a new receipt with the credit, so I didn't have to do it.

 

I won't be booking without him again. He's just a dandy. I wonder if he ever sleeps........ I don't know if I'm allowed to post his name or contact info but I'll be glad to get it to you.

Mine has found HC cabins not shown on the website, and found a cheaper price. He's also handed my price drops and answered questions about them.

Your are correct, it does make things much easier. My PVP goes over and beyond to help her clients. I would never book without a PVP.

It really depends on the PVP. I had one..she called me all the time until I booked. When I called to ask questions..she was snappy and didn't look up my account. A couple people suggested a different one and I contacted her. She has been great..already got me a better cabin and OBC. So..a referral from someone who has one they like..is a good idea.

Can you just change PVP?

[kapcruiser]

Yes, we had a PVP constantly calling our house, I didn't care for her too much. Someone referred the PVP I have now and thinks she's the best.

Yes..but the new PVP would not get the money from the booking. The new PVP I talked with was very hesitant to do anything(because I had already booked with someone else) I needed to send an email..saying I wanted to change pvps and why. It hasn't officially been changed but hopefully soon.

I no longer use the PVP, I use our Discover card travel people as I get the cash back reward whenever I book a cruise. Never had any trouble with this company and the cash back is an extra bonus. Sometimes I get 10% of the cruise cost back. That's a chunk of change, just like getting an extra OBC.
