Have you ever seen *GT rates for a British Isles cruise?

[luv2sleep]

Have you ever seen *GT rates for a British Isles cruise? I have friends going on this and it would be great if our kids could cruise this itinerary together. The price is steep for me so I was wondering if there had ever been any last minute discounted rates for this cruise. Anyone know? Thanks!!!

Holy wow!! Is that $6,129 PER PERSON for an inside?!?!?

The rates listed are for 2 people, so the $6,129 is $3064.50 per person for an inside.

i wonder what the rate is when the itinerary is first released..
that's exactly the cruise we're hoping for - but in 2018...we're waiting for the itineraries to be released...
i hope it's not that bad at the beginning...

The opening day price for a standard inside for two people on this cruise according to Touring Plans was $7065.56. The GT rates were a discount from opening day. But many would say that the opening day prices were too high to begin with, which is why the GT rates came out.

But this years BI cruise was in June. In 2017, the BI cruise is in July. Most European countries do not have summer vacation until sometime in July. I think next years BI cruise is still too early for British school holiday?
