7 for 7. Missing the deals

[Redtravel]

When 7 for 7 started, there were often good deals. Saved money.  I get the weekly email.  Today I looked at the offerings. Prices are way up in some cruises.  These are not deals.

They are probably looking to maximize revenue because of lean times with reduced capacity and cancelled cruises. I’m still waiting for a refund so keep that money coming in for a while longer.

I thought the deals were kinda nice depending on interest.

Have to exclude Copenhagen-Amsterdam though!!

I like longer cruises but the Rome-Rome 10 day looks pretty good $3199. Not great but can see booking that.

The 7-for-7 deals vary. Some are just a slight discount and others get really deeply discounted. I assume it varies depending on how much they want to get additional passengers on the ship. Some weeks none of them are great. 

 

The invoices for my last cruise and one of my upcoming cruises have the fares reduced by "ONE WEEK SALE Tier 5" and "ONE WEEK SALE Tier 3," respectively. So that shows that they have different tiers of discount that they can apply. The Tier 5 discount was quite good - it resulted in a price for the 23-day ocean crossing Cruise Collector that was less than the fare for the 10-day segment included in the cruise. I watched the cruise from the time I booked it until final payment (~ 9 months) and that was the only time the discount got that low.

For now, not cruising. Spouse got Covid on a June cruise.  Decided to do road trips close to home.
