LuckyAshley Posted March 21, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 21, 2019 If you are booking 2 rooms for your family, can you put one person in each room that gets a discount to book and get discounts for each room, then change the room assignments later (assuming only 2 people in the group can get the discount but want to be in the same room ultimately)?

Saab4444 Posted March 21, 2019 #6 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Just for info: For European bookings the balcony discount amounts are not fixed anymore and in most cases significantly below above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the amount of the balcony discount appears to vsry because of the way RC calculates the fake discount. They apply the balcony discount, then compute the fake discount, so that in effect they have reduced the amount of the balcony discount by the fake discount percentage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jcol5786 Posted March 21, 2019 #8 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I didn't realize the balcony discount only applies on bookings 6 months out. Thanks for the clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, that is a new policy. My understanding was that the amount of the balcony discount is decreased by $25 if booked (or changed) less than 6 months in advance of the sailing date.

Jcol5786 Posted March 21, 2019 #10 Share Posted March 21, 2019 Sorry my mistake, I just assumed when you mentioned 6 months out that the discount disappeared when we get within 6 months of the sail date. I probably should not post before 7 am! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I booked a 5 night May cruise in January and we actually got $63 each 'discount' so $126. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogofman Posted March 21, 2019 #12 Share Posted March 21, 2019 (edited) i thought the D discount was to move upto the next level balcony for the same as the lower level eg book a 1B and pay 2B price has that now changed? (edited just had a thought this could be Celebrity rules i'm confusing) Bob , do you know if these discounts are automatically available booking online or do we need to ring up to get them. i booked guarantees recently and was not eligible Edited March 21, 2019 by bogofman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a Celebrity Elite perk, not a Royal perk. Royal's balcony perk is a discount on any stateroom wth a balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillHana Posted March 29, 2019 #15 Share Posted March 29, 2019 How or when is the balcony discount applied? If I log as myself ( D+) I see a price for balcony room. If I use another browser without logging in and look at the same sailing the price is the same. How to I get the D+ discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molole Posted March 29, 2019 #16 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Can it be combined with other perks or on going sales? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you doing a mock booking, or just looking at the price? By doing a mock booking and entering your C&A number at the appropriate place, you can see the price difference. (Watch for the "See if you qualify for exclusive rates" link. Edited March 29, 2019 by Bee Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to enter your C&A number in the field on that particular web page. Being logged in alone does not give you the balcony discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Royal deems a price to have a element called an "instant discount", then the balcony discount is not combinable. It's Royal's way of lowering a price to all, except for those who have C&A balcony discounts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
