DISNEY CRUISE PLACEHOLDER

Image
DISNEY WISH. Congrats on your booking for this Fall. You and your friends will have a great time.  And what a great way to book a Disney Cruise, using the PLACEHOLDER you purchased on your last cruise.  For those that haven’t been on a Disney Cruise, message me now. Go on one. It’s amazing.  A “Placeholder” is something you can purchase while on your current cruise which allows you to book a future cruise within the next 2 years. So you don’t have to know exactly where or when you want to go, but you are guaranteed a 10% discount on the prevailing Disney rate for the cruise you eventually pick. So in this case, the booking was for $18000 combined, and received an approximate discount of $1800 versus booking it at home.  That’s a great deal. And these Future Placeholders can ONLY BE PURCHASED DURING YOUR CURRENT CRUISE.  So. Step one. Let’s book your Disney Cruise. Step two. If you love it and want to go again, book a future placeholder while on board and receive...

ALASKA GROUP RATE

Image
Another great example of GROUP RATES vs ONLINE RATES ALASKA CRUISE on Royal Caribbean’s Quantum of the Seas. July 1st, 2024. Round trip out of Seattle, WA.  ***A balcony cabin on Royal Caribbean’s website currently going for $6276 for a family of 4.  ****A “GROUP RATE” which will have 2 ppl per cabin goes for $3150. So 2 cabins to hold 4 ppl will be $6300 Doesn’t look like a savings.🤔 Looks the same. The price is the same.  so big deal, right? IT’s a GREAT DEAL. Under the GROUP RATE, you’re now getting 2 cabins next to each other which gives you TWICE the SQFT (396 sq ft combined vs 198 sq ft) , 2 bathrooms, double everything. Except not double the price tag. SAME PRICE.  If you wanted 350+ sq ft in a cabin on this sailing, you would need at least a GRAND SUITE  for 4 passengers, that suite on Royal Caribbean’s website would go for $11,350 right now  OR, you can have 2 balcony cabins with a total of 396 sq ft for $6300   And for those that have been i...

Cruise “GROUP RATES” vs Online Rates

Image
 What is a Group Rate on a Cruise? Group Rates are when large travel agencies purchase cabins through different cruise lines by the hundreds. They buy these cabins in bulk, and the cruise lines then give these agencies a large discount as a thank you for the travel agency to sell to their clients at a discount. . These group rates are negotiated when the cruise sailing first gets listed. So these group rates are basically a couple years old and they never rise. They basically get filled up. And then they’re done. So as the online pricing continues to increase For a particular sailing, the group rate stays the same.  So overtime, a group rate becomes significantly discounted versus a current online rate. The group rates are not easy to get. They are very much in demand. They don’t exist for every sailing. So before you book a cruise on Royal Carribean or Norwegian Cruise lines, you need to speak to your travel agent. Royal Carribean offers group rates for two passengers per cab...
