EBPC cruise available!

[FWRR3]

Wow, there is quite a selection of cabins available even now on the EBPC cruise if you just happen to be in San Diego with no place to go (in two days)!

And if you have no kids under 12, which is likely why those rooms are now available.

And you can get the time off work...

Ha. A basic Cat 5 for 2 is north of $10K?

No, I don't think so. I'm not so sure they're hurting that much for revenue charging that much a couple days before sailing.

$11K for a 4E, that's crazy.

A Youtuber said there are only 800 guests on this cruise. Why wouldn't they offer some last minute deals, or is DCL happy with this number?

 

[KVH]

I've got to assume DC has a chart or some kind of data which shows cost relative to income per person, per ship, per cruise. The assumption would be that the increased revenue from additional cruisers doesn't efficiently offset the cost incurred to maintain them for a given cruise. Especially in today's climate. Not any conspiracy here just rather basic economic practice.

^^ Most of their costs are fixed.

Now, how credible is that 800 guests number? We are on the WBPC in March and would love to sail with the reduced capacity.

 

[FWRR3]

With kids now getting the vaccine I don't think March will be the same. And the last time I looked there was nothing available. Maybe a few who won't vax their kids will drop out.

Looking at the sailaway "crowd" in that video I can believe 800 guests.

Isn't there a special welcome talk by the captain / first officer to Gold and Platinum members on the longer cruises? I think I have read previous PC trip reports where the guest count was announced in that speech.

On our PC cruise, the cruise director announced the numbers when he introduced the first evening show.

Curious how full our Hawaii cruise will be..
