Just FYI my Celebrity app is currently showing the following

 

50% off WiFi to $4.99 upgrade to premium, 25% off for $17.99 premium package. 

40% off excursions

30% off drinks packages, Classic $61.99, Premium $75.99

 

I am sailing on the Solstice if that makes any difference but my understanding flash sales are fleet wide? Just thought I’d share.

It's always good to share this information because sometimes it's not clear how widespread the sale is.  Unfortunately for me, none of my 3 future sailings including 2 on Solstice have any flash sales going on right now.

We have two cruises in 2024 and doesn't seem to apply to either 😞

I'm on the Solstice next July ~ Not seeing the same sale. 

 

Thx for the heads-up,

Oh no, I’m sorry this is not widespread and there’s no way to verify. I was able to complete a purchase of the $4.99 wifi upgrade on my app so it wasn’t a glitch or something. But worth checking anyway. 
 

I am sailing Oct 1 so maybe this is a last minute thing for sailings within 2 months?

Thanks for posting this.  I had previously booked several shore excursions as part of a prior flash sale, but still saved quite a bit by rebooking them all.  It seems the current "base" price decreased from the price when I originally booked, so it pays to check!

Thank you!  It is good for my sailing November 2024!!  My shore excursion is also discounted. Upgraded my Wi-Fi and canceled the shore excursion and rebooked!  Love this board and the great information shared. 💕

How do you reprice excursions that you booked on-line which are now cheaper with the flash sale? Do you call or can it be done on-line?  What if excursion is now sold out? Will they reprice it for you without requiring you to first cancel it if you call?  
Also, please remind me how the flash sale price works with any Elite discount you are otherwise entitled to… I’ve gotten myself confused as to how that works. 🤦🏻‍♀️ TIA

I’m not Elite so can’t help you there. I believe the changes can be done in the ap/online because you essentially have to cancel, get a refund and then rebuy which can all be done there. If you call it doesn’t work any differently, they can’t just give you the refund of the difference. I didn’t really want to go through that to save like $20 but I was able to lower my excursion by $85 total so I went ahead and did that today. My understanding is you can lose the excursion if it’s sold out if you cancel it if there’s a waitlist. Perhaps they can advise you on this over the phone though if they’d be able to let you rebook it right away.

Has anyone been able to get the upgrade from classic to premium beverage package? It still shows as $20 on my cruise planner for Oct. 30 TA.

We had just decided on the shore excursions that we wanted for our September 2024 cruise. We booked them yesterday during the sale and paid $432 less for our 7 excursions, than the original prices we had written down. I checked my 2024 Caribbean and my 2025 BtoB Caribbean and neither were on sale.

The drink package difference is not $20 but still charging that for the upgrade!
