For one way flight US->UK I think most know about http://www.bt-store.com well I just tried another one http://www.1800flyeurope.com/

They had Virgin Direct flights for $290 thats under £180 for a MIA->LHR flight.
hopefully these will get confirmed.

You have to check a few consolidators they all have different deals.

Great for these autumn Transatlantics.

edit : now showing on vigin site.

Im having trouble with Best Price and otehr sites when I put my lat number in to get the best price it keeps saying no cabin
When I take it out I get cabins...no idea whats going on there

They probably can't connect to NCL to check the latitudes
it worked for me with BPC the other day,

I find it easier to get the price drops when dealing direct and on inside cabins the saving is very small.

Opps, first post and got it wrong...typical

AG for $749 not AD/AE

Sorry

Gem Nov prices have dropped again for latitudes.

headline best rates, check for others
AE $599+tx 15 Nov
A3 $899+tx 8 Nov

EDIT:
just realised these make great SOLO rate cruises even at double cruise fare.
Suite ,concierge, butler and loads of perks.

the A3 has two bedrooms so OK for mates

I have an AE on hold till Sunday night but cant decided between this one and the Brillaince down to Dubai
RC flights are making that one abit more expensive than we would have liked but I suppose £2100 for 14 days in a balcony and flights isnt too bad..Do you know if we can find out before bookign if they are direct flights?
Also are there any perks to and AE with NCL? Ive read that its not worth the extra for what you get in a courtyyard oer the penthouse. How do you apply a voucher for the $250 we have from our last cruise?

The exta perk with the Courtyard is the extra space, with a glass roof if it is raining next to the cabin and one deck down to cagnies for the bfast and lunch.

The courtyard has Small gym, sauna, hot tub, lap pool(water jet), extra butler with courtyard dining and a private deck above

It is not JUST the courtyard the A3 cabin is MUCH better than the AE, luxury bath(AE bath is the same as a AF) with twin sinks bath with view and TV, seperate shower, loo with phone, and second bedroom that will sleep 3(or hold the empty cases) with bathroom

AA at the front is another good option but $100pp more with 3 bottles of booze.. also check out the A2 they are good but a bit more.

also reserved space in the theatre but not that good(balcony on the left).

Even though we have 20day booked from the 23Nov the A3 is so tempting if there are cheap flights.
(20days(inside) inc tips & flight back just under £1kpp. add transport to southampton and back from LHR.)

To use the reward through you need to tell the TA you have one and your latitudes No. or if you book direct I can give you the deatails of an NCL personal cruise consultant or do an NCL hold then phone up NCL US(I use skype out).

With RCI I understand you can make the booking conditional on the flights being okbut that was an agent that said this. try phoning.

If you speak to the flights department at RC they will be able to give you the information re flights. I would imagine they may well use Emirates and they fly from several UK Airports direct.
eg Manchester Glasgow for sure as well as London.

Thanks for your help

Is someone waiting on a price drop for the IOS? http://www2.latesttraveloffers.net/apps/portal/remotelogin.asp?code=rci&authcode=fA4uheYuX&dir=offr&OfferId=1665909&EmailId=407133&EmailAddressId=3426425&ES=True&
Tax ontop so I dont know if its any cheaper I havnt been watching this one

Or was it the Malaga Departure http://www2.latesttraveloffers.net/apps/portal/remotelogin.asp?code=rci&authcode=fA4uheYuX&dir=offr&OfferId=1665917&EmailId=407133&EmailAddressId=3426425&ES=True&

Thanks,

That's $40pp cheaper than the current US senior rate

Still £45pp cheaper through the UK.

One thing with RCI when comparing prices on-line is at the final step in the UK there is a 5% discount on the cruisefare.

This can swing it back to the UK and get close or better than TA prices.

New QM2 TA NY->UK Jan 2nd/4th

6 nights + 2nights in NY hotel and flight

£699 this is the first leg of a longer cruise.

http://www.jetlinecruise.com/cruise-deals/new-year-new-york-on-cunard.htm

Not looked to see if anyone else has this.

Celebrity Century 14th November for 7 nights
£409 inside
£469 outside
£569 Concierge balcony

And the Costa Pacifica at the magic £299
http://www.cruiseclubuk.com/mailshots/mailshot40/celebrity_costa.html
I've not had a good look round to see if these are the best prices but they look pretty good

Celebrity Century T/A on 28th November 14 nights from Barcelona to Miami is £311 on smartcruiser.co.uk

If you can get sensibly priced flights to Barcelona, and from Miami this is a really good deal. Off to wear down DW for this one!!

Edit: Miami to Heathrow leaving mid-evening direct to Heathrow is $322 with http://www.1800flyeurope.com

If it is the 7:55pm then it is Virgin,

I would grab it we paid $288(now $356) a few weeks back for our 13 Dec flight back.

I found it easyer to call them and do the booking over the phone for address and credit card details.
You get the virgin confirmation immediately. and is online with virgin hour or two later.
I use skype out so the call was 16p took 11min.

Why not stay another week and add on a cruise.

Thanks W/J, what you suggest is absolutely what I want to do but....DW has scuppered the idea (only a few days home from Jade Black Sea), and anyway retirement is still 10-15 years off!! Fantastic deal for someone, and hope you enjoy IOTS which we hope to do some day!

We will probably look at a T/A in the spring, which we did last year and absolutely loved it.....gets you back without the horrid jet-lag which my DW struggles greatly with. Hopefully some of the deals going West will be repeated back East in March/April.

Is it me or has RCI UK stopped displaying the 55+ option?

Yes, that is extremely odd. Given they own Celebrity also went in and looked there, but they still have the 55+ box!!

Booked a 5 day western caribbean with RCL last friday, now on their web site I did find a 55 box and ticked it, but then no available cabins left with them so I booked it with Cumbria Cruises, think the deal was ok 240 each on Enchantment we are adding this one on after we do our transatlantic on Navigator

The 55+ is there when set US but not for UK.

Anoying since I am watching for price drops on a UK booking.

I don't know how to find the RCL uk site I tried last week and gave up I just seem to get the International site
