Celebrity Promo

[Virgo61]

Any travel agents out there know if the current promo is really ending? If so what's next.

The base offer of 60/75% off the second guest plus bonus savings is scheduled to run until March 1.

It is easiest to look at the very bottom of the offer in T&C's 

 

Cruise must be booked January 12, 2023 through January 15, 2023 (the “Offer Period”) and applies to sailings 3-nights and longer departing December 02, 2022 - April 30, 2025, excluding Galapagos and Cruisetours (the “Offer Cruise”). Promo code not required.

 

Having said that Celebrity will extend it again on Monday or come out with a new offer with the same prices.     It is best just book and if you see a better deal prior to final payment call in and have them adjust your price.

The reason I was asking is because we can book onboard from 1/30 on.

Whether it is the last promo, the current promo, or the next promo Celebrity has increased the base prices of their cruises high enough that there are no real deals out there. Last time we booked on board they were not offering any additional incentives either. Good luck.

No reduced deposit or OBC for booking on board?

Of all the cutbacks, I do not think this is a casualty of booking on-board, surely!!!

 

Then again, the postings here if that happened!!!! LOL

Reduced deposit - yes. But no more OBC Then you would get if you booked any other way.

This was my personal experience booking a 2024 cruise back in March of 2022 while on the ship.

The extra OBC for booking on board has not changed as of two weeks ago.  Bo, agree there would be an explosion if X took that away.  In reality it isn't much and you must spend it with X.

The only promo that comes and goes is the extra $50 OBC.  They've been running that about every other weekend since Thanksgiving.  The main promo runs continuously.

While on board the Beyond in December, we booked the Reflection for 2024. We got all In, $100.00pp deposit, and $200.00 per cabin OBC. This was for a regular balcony.

When is a sale not a sale?  When X jacks up the prices so high that even with 75% off 2nd guest the cruises are priced crazy!  Two more X cruises then off to Oceania or MSC Yacht Club.

Given all of the cutbacks in menu selection and virtual elimination of the evening buffet and increase in prices, I can't imagine booking a Celebrity cruise at this time.  Right now they can't give me a deal good enough that I would consider cruising with Celebrity.

aw - agree, yet "in reality" taking that away is far worse than the scale back of The OVC... LOL

 

Most would not care who they had to spend it with, it is theirs to spend... Upgrade to PBP, possibly???

For under $100 pp per day would you?
