False advertising!
False advertising! My husband and I are avid cruisers, ramping up recently to more than 10 cruises a year, so we are well-versed with the changes and pricing for the cruise lines we use. I was searching for a 14-day Xmas cruise on their website, and on April 2, it was advertised at $1419, a great price. Upon clicking to the next step, the price changed to $1799! I emailed an agent at cruises.com and included a screenshot showing the advertised price on the website, and had to chase for an explanation. On April 3, she responded via a voicemail stating that the former price did not include port taxes and fees, which brought the price from $1428 to the post-$295 price of $1723. 1. First, the price online was $1419, not $1428. 2. For several months now, regulations have required pricing to include port taxes and fees. 3. Consistent with #2, the new price on their website is $1799, and stays at $1799 when you click further into the booking process, not $1723. Do not book with them, as their final prices are inconsistent with their advertised rates, and even the explanation from an agent with "Over 45 years luxury concierge experience" (Lori Cordes, ext. 78239) flat out lied to cover it up. BUYER BEWARE!
