What do you think? Price increase on balcony....

Looks like we are going to have the date for our cruise :( My current booking is $605.55 pp (taxes included-military rate) My new date Western Caribbean (6 day) would be $811.52 pp (taxes incuded but they said military rate is closed so this is regular price :( ) I don't wanna pay a price increase-boo hoo. This is my first cruise so I'm not sure if this is good or not. Is this still a good deal? Thanks! :)

Tsjo4, With out knowing a bit more about your western cruise it is a bit tough to say for sure. From my experience I normally pay anywhere from $700 to $850 for my balconies rooms when I cruise.

Anything under $700 is a very good deal, but I dont qualify for military.

 

The rest depends on the date of sailing if $811 a good deal or not. Its a good deal during the summer, but maybe not for Sept/Oct, its only so so.

What ship? If it is one of the bigger / newer ships yes. If it is for Celebration, Inspiration, Fantasy - no in my opinion. Usually they say anything under $100.00 a day is good. But, good is different for everyone!
