emmy Posted March 8, 2016 #26 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I actually thought the prices were in line with what I was expecting compared to past years...at least so far. We will be able to make a final judgement when we have a bigger sample size. BILL Hi Bill ~ I checked the pricing last evening as I wanted to add April 29/17 as a back part to the April 22 Harmony we are already booked on. WOW $900 more for the same cabin I have on April 22 which I just happened to book opening day as well. I will sit on that one for a bit. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouhunter Posted March 8, 2016 #27 Share Posted March 8, 2016 They are terrible. These prices are crazy for booking out this far. This is why my upcoming cruises says "NCL" now.... because of royals pricing. Sorry, not paying 2,500 w/taxes for a balcony when NCL offers me the same, on a brand new ship, with free drinks for 2 and free specialty dinning for 2. Love royal, but now it seems good prices/itinerary selection is the exception, not the rule. I guess it depends on when and where you're looking.............

Rare BillOh Posted March 8, 2016 #29 Share Posted March 8, 2016 If you are a fan of the San Juan itineraries and do not mind the Adventure of the Seas, take a look at the Suite prices...very attractive right now!:):) BILL This maybe good advice. Someone said the same thing about this time last year, I booked a JS for 7 days for less than my Freedom or Oasis D class balcony. Since then its gone up about $300 per person, this was on the ABC route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if RCCL has taken them off to re-price them. :confused: They were a great deal! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarky213 Posted March 8, 2016 #31 Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) All junior suites on adventure have gone on the US site, but are still available on the UK site.(At an extremely increased price) Looks like the famous RCCI IT team have done it again:D Edited March 8, 2016 by clarky213 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of people have reported calling and being told they were removed for inventory maintenance. I just looked at one in November where it is still showing $818 for a JS but when you follow thru on the pricing it comes out to around $1200.

Hope they let those that booked keep their bookings That's what happened to me, and I called. I was told that unless you could book at that $818 price, they cannot honor anything that the computer says. I'm so irritated right now....here's the one I was looking at. She tried telling me it was because of qualifiers and I went ummm...no. I said can I send in my screenshot, and she said, well unless you were able to book at that price, nothing we can do.

crazycatlady82 Posted March 8, 2016 #34 Share Posted March 8, 2016 And, my response was-why would I book something that shows $800 more on the next page? She couldn't answer that... Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beachiekeen Posted March 8, 2016 #39 Share Posted March 8, 2016 Oh man--I told hubby last night, let's book the Adventure, we can stay in a Grand Suite for less than the cruise we just took in a balcony! I should have known it was too good to be true. I also saw our same itinerary on Liberty and we could get a JS for the same price we just got for a balcony. So that was still a good deal I guess.

MPJCH Posted March 8, 2016 #41 Share Posted March 8, 2016 We booked a Jr Suite on Harmony of the Seas For March 2017 while we were onboard the freedom of the seas with the intension of changing the date for March 2018. Wow when I called to change the date & get a price it has gone up $2100 more! I could go on NCL Escape Haven for the price I was quoted ($9000.00)!! And get the drink package, dining package too!!

marys350 Posted March 8, 2016 #42 Share Posted March 8, 2016 I booked a Junior suite on Adventure in April, 2018 for $888.00 per person this morning and received my e-mail confirmation documents with correct price. When I had seen that the suite price was lower than the balcony price, I had a funny feeling that it was a mistake and that RCCL would change it soon, so I booked right away. I'm so glad that I did because this afternoon suites were listed as "sold out" at first and then the Junior suite price reappeared as $1269.00 per person. This will be our first time in a suite, as they are usually too expensive for our budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merion_Mom Posted March 9, 2016 #46 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I just called. She was puzzled as to why the website had only charged me $125 deposit. She looked it up and said that this is/was not a "reduced deposit" promotion time, so we added another $125 to each cruise. Better to be safe than sorry, IMO. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be our first time in a suite, as they are usually too expensive for our budget. Check your reservation on the RCI website. I got the same deal and after reading a tip here on CC, found that there was another $500 deposit due by the end of the day today, 3/9/16. I'm guessing that may be RCI's way on canceling this great deal for folks who don't catch it. Congrats on your deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
