Kimberleys: Price Drop

Received an email from Coral Expeditions last night. I thought it was in response to a query I had submitted. I was wrong.

Turns out that in conjunction with publishing the 2025 itineraries, Coral Expeditions eliminated the price differential between their vessels for both 2024 and 2025. Thus reducing the fare for our April 2024 expedition.

Price drops for cruises are not unusual. In fact, I’ve managed to save quite a bit over the years by going back to the cruise line after the initial booking and having a price drop applied.

But in 20+ years of cruising, this is the first time that the operator has notified us of their own volition and applied the drop automatically. Now, that is unusual … at least in our part of the world.

The new rate for our Kimberleys expedition saves us almost $2,100 over the original pricing. This is more than the “every penny counts” savings we’ve managed for other bits and pieces of our Australia adventure.

Thank you Coral Expeditions!Read more
