I will try to update all three lines on Thursday.

If there are no changes, then I will try again on Monday.

Yes, but often the deal does not mean a change in the published fare.

Spot check this morning, and there were a few updates, so I started the full process again today.

Look for Fare Compare to be updated by noon Pacific time.

======

I'm not sure how I missed it, but this one did change yesterday:

http://www.crystalcruises.com/voyage/details/8225

It will be picked up again in today's run. It looks like most of the updates are in trips that sail away soon.

Trip count 19 (8 Symphony, 11 Serenity), fare count 285.

On Symphony, fares were higher, but mostly still lower than their original fare, including the one I mentioned in the previous post.

On Serenity, in 2020, there are three trips, Sydney to Singapore, Singapore to Mumbai, and Mumbai to Rome that are sharply higher.

Set the Fare History selector to 2018.11.02 to see only today's changes. Also don't forget that the jcalc box unchecked compares current to original, whilst * jcalc box checked compared current to previous.

I'm done posting the links to Fare Compare - it's at the top of every page as $FC on drib critic.

Thanks for the update not as many changes as usual...no big wins for me this month

Yes they certainly ramped up the price on these 2020 cruises - they must have seen a good level of interest in them perhaps - certainly testament to if you see something you like then best to book it as it can change significantly very quickly

more november updates

Post: # 2097Post drib »

7 trips and 105 fares.

There are three trips with large decreases on Symphony.

There are four trips with changes on Serenity; one decrease and three increases, but they are all modest changes.

Set the fare history selector to 2018.11.08 to see em'.

Upon review, those large decreases weren't really decreases at all. They were roll-backs to their pre-November fares. Dunno if they made a mistake on November 2, or just want to see if we're paying attention.

Three more trips had fare changes today:

rollcall/rollcall.php?trip=6541 (Sydney to Singapore)
rollcall/rollcall.php?trip=6542 (Singapore to Mumbai)
rollcall/rollcall.php?trip=6543 (Mumbai to Rome)

All are on Serenity, and all are decreases from November 2, but still slightly more than their original fares ... so kind of like last week.
