new sale: repricing cabins?

[S.S.Oceanlover]

With the new sale has anybody had any luck repricing their currently booked cruises?

 

It says new bookings only, so i was curious before I contacted my TA.

 

Our cruise would be an additional $92 but would add an additional $300 OBC.

My TA initially told me NO but I was politely persistent and made it happen. Cruise cost me about $120 more but with the OBC it worked out in my favor!

[Retired LEO]

I repriced 5 bookings and came out ahead.

[molly361]

I re-priced one and came out $100 ahead on a 4 day cruise

[S.S.Oceanlover]

Ok ty for the replies.

 

I'll give my TA a call.

All of my 9 cruises went up.

[iloverags2]

Our February cruise went up $13.50 per person, but with the OBC we came out $144 ahead. Works for me!

[ken_nyc]

Our cruise went up $1,286.

Hey Bill...I call Royal for our cruise May 2016 to see if we qualified for OBC. We book in May 2014 (first BOGO 1/2) offer). In order to get the $300 OBC and the internet package the price of our cruise would go UP $982.17.:eek:

Think I'll just spend my own $300.00

I first tried to call the regular customer service phone number, and get my sailing repriced, but they just told me there was nothing they could do. I ended up having to call Crown & Anchor.

 

My SJ had increased a total of $186, however, I would be picking up the $300 OBC, and therefore coming out ahead by $114.

 

Every little bit helps!

[SnorkelBoy]

Yes I was able to reprice an existing cruise and benefited $170 with the increase in fare. I have a total of $490 in OBC from RCL and TA.

Repriced my current balcony for a loss of $18 after the OBC, but gained VOOM for free. I made my wife happy. We lost our balcony discount of $125 by changing to the new offer. They said it was not combinable with the OBC. (Funny, because we Had $100 OBC before I call and it was combinable on the 30% off offer)

I repriced ours for Jan 2017, a balcony and an inside. The price remained the same but we got $200 obc for the balcony and $100 for the inside. Works for me and I will continue to monitor!!

I booked a CP cabin on Oasis for Feb. 2016 when I was onboard this past February. Today's price for that cruise is about the same, so I called my TA to see if we could get the $300 OBC currently being offered. She said that since I had been given $300 OBC when I booked, RC would not add another $300 OBC if I changed this reservation. Oh well, it didn't hurt to ask, and I'm still happy with the booking I made 9 months ago.

[Big_G]

Our booking went up too.There's only one cabin left from our category on a couple of the big travel sites however it's not listed available on RCI. Maybe that's why it went up.

Actually, I correct myself... Our balcony room got $300 obc and the kids inside got $100. And this is for the Anthem.

[S.S.Oceanlover]

Just got off the phone with my TA. RCI wouldn't combine our balcony discount with this offer so I would have had to pay $200 more to get an extra $100 OBC.

 

I passed for now.

We checked that out. The cruise price is $300 higher. But we'd get the $300 OBC which translates to "doesn't make a difference."

Was wondering if anyone was able to get this offer for alaskla itineraries? Could not get this offer for alaska in june 2016 and grandeur march 2016. Th anks

I was able to reprice 4 cruises. Lost the $125 balcony discount from c&a though as they obc is not combinable. All cruises went up but got a net gain of $97 to $120 less when you factor in the extra obc. This was on allure for 2016.

[retdon]

I called and it would cost us $137/pp = $274 and loose the $125 C&A. No way Jose..... A family member joining us got a good deal with the $300 ship credit. I will keep checking.

[finnkle]

Prices have progressively got better since the sale was launched earlier this week. It wasn't worth it on Tuesday or Wednesday for me to change but today it was $184 (Canadian dollars) more expensive but got a $300 OBC (US dollars) so $116 better and the difference in currency so not too shabby!

[ken_nyc]

I just checked again and our cruise went up even more today it is $1,367 more that the original price we booked for! :eek: Any new ship the price will just keep going up!

[jonbgd]

our Liberty cruise went up $300pp

Rhapsody cruise went up $500pp

both booked onboard with OBC and Balcony discount

 

SO the sale isn't good for us
