The Mouse wouldn't take my money....

Huh. I thought that was the whole point of the reshop, to get the same rate and the benefits.

You can't go to the Future Cruise desk and say,"Here's my reservation number for this cruise I booked on opening day. I'd like to apply my OBB discount to this reservation." They won't give you the 10% off the already existing reservation. They'll run a new quote for you for the same cruise and factor the discount into current prevailing rates. If the cruise prices haven't gone up it can be a better price. I've never had that happen for me, tho.

What I typically do is save up my placeholder bookings that I make onboard. The most I've ever held is like 4. When it's opening day for new dates/sailings I book opening day w/an OBB 10% off to get the absolute cheapest rate possible. That price is typically impossible to beat.

I'm not sure exactly why the OP thought they would get more than 1 OBB offer. It's likely s/he wasn't aware of the policy changes on the OBBs. When I first started cruising in 2011 you could book as many as you like all receiving the discount + reduced deposit + OBC. I even booked 2 rooms on a cruise for 2 friends! (We booked 3 rooms on a future sailing we were taking together.) Then it became only 1 OBB offer but you could still do 2 for b2b. Now you can't do 2 for b2b, just 1. And somewhere along the way you couldn't use a Disney Visa to book to get the bonus OBCs. Also, somewhere in there they added blackout dates that you couldn't use the OBB offer on.

I currently have ZERO placehders (gasp!) and am thinking I will not book another when I'm on the Dream in 2 weeks. I'm craaaaazy, huh? Livin on the edge! LOL!
