Harmony Beverage/Internet sale

[Cruise a holic]

My DH and I will be sailing on the Harmony of the Seas early January 2020.  We missed the last Deluxe Drink and internet package special.  Anybody have any idea when Royal will run another special for January Harmony sailings?

Price trends are not predictable.

I know everything but paying taxes and death are absolute- but based on past experience- do they offer for example a thanksgiving special.  Or offer specials ever six weeks?

 

Txs.

There's been no discernable pattern for real sales.

 

If you are committed to purchasing, then buy now and watch prices.  If you see a lower price, cancel and reorder, no need to try to time purchases.

Will do- only problem is that they immediately charge to my credit card- then if and when I repurchase- I have to wait for a refund and charge again-  But I guess that is what I will do.

 

Thanks

Some of my 2020 cruises have gone from $15.99 per day to $17.49 per day. 

 

Buying now and watching for price drops is always good advice.

Apparently last week VOOM prices went up fleet wide on board.

Hopefully so will the onboard discount for D and D+ based on $24.99 per day for Surf.

 

Unfortunately it's getting to be like DX - not worth it the longer the cruise becomes.

Yes, $25/50- it is so new the in cabin letter still listed $23/46. 

 

Also, the new way to get VOOM accounts is supposed to be rolled out fleet wide soon- just started on Adventure last week.

Going to be on Adventure next month and so glad I got my Surf/Stream (one device) back in late November for $11.99.

Now to keep a watch on pricing for my next few cruises....hoping for a Black Friday sale.

You have to monitor the price in your Cruise Planner on Roal's website.  Check often.

I just got the drink package for $49 and the drink + voom package for my hubby for $58.  I had to call to order two slightly different packages rather than using the internet.  I thought that was a pretty good deal.  My sailing is Oct 27.

When you say check often   Do you mean daily or hourly

Maybe a couple times a day.

Wow that's a good price! I just looked and the RCCL page says $61 pp.

I got a 4 device pkg for 26.99. Looks like I would never see that price ever again.

 No I believe it was Thursday. Is it possible that different things go on sale at different times depending on when your sailing date is?  I sell pretty quick, on October 27.

Highly possible, it still says $61 today on mine but I don't sail for 78 days.

Last year on Black Friday, the deluxe package went to $47 a day on Harmony for our January cruise.   We booked at that price and were refunded our earlier price and a couple of weeks before our cruise, the price went down to $46 per day, but we didn't think it was worth the trouble for the small difference.

 

I am hoping that there will be another Black Friday sale that reduces our price as I now have it booked at the lowest I've seen which is $54 a day for our Jan sailing again on Harmony.
