Carnival price reduction after penalty period
I am almost ready to book the Legend. I got a great price from Cruise
Quick. Then the next day I noticed Carnival lowered its price by $50 per person. Cruise Quick also gave me a lower quote. My question is after I book will if the price goes lower will Carnival adjust my price even though I paid in full? Thanks Jeanette |

Ususally I think Carnival may give an upgrade or onboard credit if prices are
lowered after final pmt. Royal Caribbean and Celebrity will in most cases refund the difference in dollars. |

We had booked a 14 day Canal tranit on Carnival last year. Then later, they had a major sale. I got a lfyer from another cruise booking place showing the same class of cabin for a couple hundred less and $99 airfar (Booking it myself was going to be about $300 each, so paying $200 sure looked good). I got on the horn to Ray here and he taslked to Carnival and got the lowered price and the airfare deal for us. Now I thinkt his was before we had paid the ifnald eposit but even so I am appreciative that Carnival was willing to honor the offer. And in fact we kept our pre-selected cabin, didn't evne have to retreat to a guarentee,w hich I think the sale was for. The Internet-only-almost-never-talk-to-a-human, web sites may nor may not go to bat for you, I don't know, but I do honestly beleive you'll get more juice with a live travel agent who works with you, knows you'll come back if the service is good and who genuinely cares about each booking and who can work the people ont he other end, again due to longstandfing personal relations with the companies involved. I also have great confidence that Ray will be there if something goes boompf at the last moment and will do his darndest to fix any glitches. That to me is peace of mind worth a good deal. Jim P. |
