Rare CruiseIreland Posted December 10, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Hi Bea. That's interesting. How would one go about booking that from this soggy field? Ken Edited December 10, 2015 by CruiseIreland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Beamafar Posted December 11, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Hi Ken .............. boy, looks like you're having some fun up there these days :eek: I have ZERO interest in travelling Stateside due to how immigration treats those who consider spending hard-earned money in the good ole USA. I think, though, you're plámás-ing (sic) me here :D The offer is only applicable in the US - I thought I'd share the info on here as there is an increase in interest in Divina now that she's permanently based in Miami. Me - I wouldn't fly out there if I got the cruise for free! Recent experience onboard in that region has left a less than pleasant memory that won't be repeated by this cruiser!

Rare CruiseIreland Posted December 11, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 11, 2015 (edited) Hi Bea. I've never been over the Atlantic so I am innocent of US immigration procedures! Yes, wild up here last week but less so now, snow next methinks. I would fancy a Carribbean cruise at those prices but the boss is less enthusiastic. If they are gonna offer those prices only to US customers, I'll pass but I'll email my US TA and inquire. Not sure why you think I'm plamas-ing you! As if I would!!;) Nollaig Shona daoibh, Bea!

cdubmom Posted December 11, 2015 #6 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Thanks for posting this! I got a midship balcony for three for $1900!!! Phenomenal deal!!! :) I had originally booked the Black Friday deal and though $2600 for three was great, so this is out of this world! We will be driving from Canada to get onboard!!! Summer road trip! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerin Posted December 13, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Tried to book, website won't work and the offices aren't open :( Lame, no wonder they get so many bad reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chong67 Posted December 13, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 13, 2015 2nd person free? I didnt see that. The price is the same as for few weeks back. I usually go to a place that have all the cruise listed, like a fare search thing. Then I go to the ship website to book. Is it the same or should I help other website?

sfaaa Posted December 13, 2015 #9 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Nope, not the same. 2 weeks ago, you paid $300 more but received $300 obc. Now you pay $300 less but get no obc. I much prefer having $300 cash in my pocket than obc and switched accordingly. Good deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Beamafar Posted December 13, 2015 Author #11 Share Posted December 13, 2015 (edited) Can you share what happened in the us? Sorry to hear there were issues. Immigration for cruise ship passengers can be a bit of a nightmare regardless of which cruise company you sail with. One of the excuses is that they don't have the technology onboard to process ESTAs. Yet we have to pay for these "not visas!" :rolleyes: A general issue I have is that I resent being treated like a criminal to visit the US - there are too many wonderful places in the world to visit and where you're welcomed as a tourist and not treated with contempt by ignorant, ill-mannered immigration officials.
