Cruise Quick vs. DCL

[jkrohn2703]

I have a cat 3 room booked through DCL. Has anyone ever transferred their DCL resie to Cruise Quick. Cruise Quick is offering to save me $650.00. Do you think that's safe?

You may want to check the cruisecritic.com boards. I think I have read reviews on cruisequick on those boards. Can't remember if they were good or bad though . Good Luck.

I LOVE cruisequick! They are VERY reputable. You'll have no troubles. All my payments have been processed by the cruiseline, not the agency. They answer my questions very quickly.

You probably won't have much luck asking at cruisecritic though. They have a policy that bans mentioning any agency. Posts get deleted immediately. Maybe ask at cruise addicts.....

I used cruisequick to book my upcoming NCL cruise. I found them easy to get quotes, etc. I haven;t need them for anything different, so I can tell how they will do with unusual stuff.

I was told (although by a TA, so not sure if it is really true or not) that the suites (Cat. 3, 2 and 1) usually do not get discounted. The TA said that the price I got from DCL was the same as the price she would get. I had 3 different TA's price the same trip and they all got the same thing that I did by calling DCL. So, I would want to know how they are getting you a $650 difference. But if it's all cool, then go for it!!!!!

I've used Cruisequick for many of my bookings. Have never had an issue, they have beat other TA's pricing everytime, and always get back to me within an hour if not less. They are internet only but don't let that concern you. I just booked two Royal Carribean cruises through them and even though Royal Carribean does not allow discounting of their cruises, Cruisequick does offier a Mastercard with credits which in effect, I consider a discount. I don't get the Mastercard until about a week after the cruise but will use it to pay down my next cruise. For example, I have two indoor cabins booked for an Alaskan cruise this June, total cost 4800.00. Cruisequick will "rebate" me 400.00 of that in the form of a Mastercard. Had I worked directly with Royal Carrib or even another TA, I would have paid the 4800.00 without the Mastercard rebate.

Also, if you do decide to cancel a cruise booked through them, they don't charge a cancellation fee.
