Yep, that started about two weeks ago or something like that, there have been discussion about it here.

Want to book for Feb 2016. What are the chances that they will extend the offer til then for inside cabins. Should I wait it out??

[2ManyCruises]

You can lock it in now as deposits are fully refundable till last day of final payment. Then check periodically to see if prices drop and if the offer is still available. If prices drop and the offer is there book the lower price.

Book through ncl.co.uk if you don't mind that there are different booking and cancellation conditions compared to the US

"Inside & Studio Staterooms receive premium choices on sailings up to 31 March 2016"

Oy, prices are $200 more per cabin on that site vs the US site after pound to dollar conversion.

If you get over $400 worth of drink package per person (assuming a week long cruise) for free by paying an extra $100 per person, that seems like a pretty good deal to me.

and the 18% on the UBP are included.

you can try it in € as well through ncl.eu if the exchange rate makes a difference for that

Not when you get it anyway and not pay the extra $200.

But as mentioned already in this thread, you won't "get it anyway" for Q1 2016 cruises in insides "and not pay the extra $200".

[Jezo]

Right, so it's $200 extra a ticket plus then $200 extra in service fees?

 

How can I see the final price on the UK website without booking a ticker? Is there a way? I want to compare final price I have now vs final price on the UK website, but I wont see stuff like UBP and gratuities until I book all the way through, right?

In UK and CE (.eu) gratuities are included in promo packages.

Yes, its great but stinks for me because it started right after I made my final payment and they wouldn't honor it for me or let me cancel and rebook. I'm a little discouraged by that most other cruise lines would have honored the promotion. I was even willing to pay a higher rate.

They can't prevent you from cancelling and rebooking but obiviously the cancellation fees apply if you are close enough to the departure.

 

You can't have the cake and eat it too.

The cancellation fee was the total fare so not a reality. I'm fine with it, I got what I booked however I just think the customer service could have been a little better. Other lines have honored promotions after final payment many times for me. As you can see I sail a lot. It feels like with NCL, once they get you in the door and get your money they don't care anymore.

[Jezo]

Okay so how do I see the total out the door price? Three people, 10 day February cruise, inside cabin. Is there a way to see what the absolute final price would be for an inside or do i need to book it to see everything that would be added on?

[**maria**]

I've just booked an interior through eu website as a solo traveller and there were several options I could choose. I didn't go for UBP since I don't drink so chose $100 OBC instead.

 

Ncl.eu was a lot cheaper for inside cabin than .com. An inside was even cheaper than a solo room so I assume there must have been a mistake. I have booked and paid the deposit. Is there any risk of them changing the price for me?

Here is what it says before I add in the UBP:

 

Stateroom Category: IX

Adult 1: € 839,00

Adult 2: € 839,00

Child 1: € 339,00

Plus a pre-paid service charge of: € 330,00

Deposit due if option will be confirmed: € 161,20

Final Payment: € 2.185,80

Total Price: € 2.347,00

 

How do I find out how much on top of this adding in the promotion will be without booking and making a payment?

 

This is for a 10 day cruise.
