Cat PS/Penthouse Suite

Anybody ever book the Penthouse suite? Do they ever discount this suite or is it pretty much the same rate as quoted by HAL on their online site?

Same question for Cat SA...is this ever discounted?

Never booked the Penthouse but we have had an S suite. We have never seen either discounted, mainly because they are the first cabins booked and HAL has no trouble selling them.

Not had a PS but a Cat S last September. The pricing received was from a TA that came through a lot better than HAL.

Just shop the online web sites, use cruise compete and from there go to different TA's and ask if they can match or beat the pricing you saw on web sites.

The TA's that are used for CruiseMates cruises do well with pricing.

I've gotten a price for a deluxe vernadah suite (cat SA) on the Zuiderdam to Alaska. Received a quote of $7,600 for (3) people, and was wondering if this is a fair price for this category?
