What a Celebrity Xcel price drop is worth
The median drop is $352 on a cabin for two, and one drop in ten is worth more than $2,500. None of that comes back to you automatically. Celebrity does not call when the price falls, so a drop is only worth money if somebody notices it while the claim window is still open.
Celebrity runs this through its Celebrity Best Price Guarantee. Before final payment: reprice any time before final payment. After final payment: a cabin upgrade when a better category is priced at or below what you paid. Read the full Celebrity policy.
CruiseSignal watches your exact ship, sail date and cabin category, then tells you the amount and which policy applies. You or your travel agent file the claim.
