The prices do fluctuate because cruise lines and airlines have a yield management system. And maybe if you keep looking at a price they raise it because they think you are really interested. I don't think they are trying to keep you from finding out about a price drop. What you are seeing is likely only a byproduct of their yield management system. You can set up Firefox to only allow cookies for a session in preferences so there will be no cookies just for a particular web site like Celebrity. When you end the session the cookies will be deleted. I use Safari primarily, which does not have that option but I accomplish the same thing by using Private Browsing. Firefox also has Private Browsing so you could use that also. I prefer Private Browsing because not only does it not save the cookies, it does not cache the pages when you have it on. I have had Firefox set to only allow session cookies, but there are some cookies that I want to keep and there are some sites that absolutely will not open without accepting cookies. Those sites won't even let me set them up on an individual site basis, so session cookies become a PITA for me as does the feature that will ask you whether or not to accept a cookie. That's just too intrusive for my personal comfort. I do use private browsing when I remember and now I'm using it for Celebrity as well as other travel sites. Just this morning I got a email from an online TA offering a great price on a cruise. I kept the email and after speaking to DH went back to the same page, it was gone. Maybe 10 minutes had elapsed. BTW, I'm an old Netscape user who went to Mozilla Suite then to Firefox so I'm pretty savvy on how it works. -- Janet Wilder Way-the-heck-south Texas Spelling doesn't count. Cooking does. |
