Sunwing Price Drop Guarantee

Sunwing Price drop guarantee vent.

 

Our travel agent just let us know today that we can apply a one-time price drop.  When we signed the contract we were told the price drop could be applied 45 prior to travelling.  Suddenly it is 60 days.  I'm so annoyed.  The weather in Toronto has been so crappy so the prices haven't really dropped.  The  most it's going to drop is $100.  We travel in June which is the cheapest time of year to travel and our guests are going to be paying more than $200 more than what it usually costs.  I thought we had 45 days and I knew the price would drop more 45 days before.  So annoyed.

 

Anyone else experience this?

@ same here! we're also with Transat and our TA said that most likely the prices will just go up. She said it is mainly to do with the resort we've chosen that they always sell out regardless of the time of year.

We didn't qualify for a group rate since we didn't have enough people but for October, Azul Fives has just dropped $150 per person. I'm still betting it will go down a bit more. The agent I have said to hold off until about May or June before we book. I've been watching prices and just this week they've all dropped. But I don't know how it works if you have a group rate set up. Your quote may already be cheaper than what's being advertised now. We're going with Transat as well since they're exclusive for AF but we also have air miles travel certificates to use which are through Transat and Marlin Travel.

Oh wow!   It's almost like the group rate is a better idea for busy seasons because last minute the price will probably only go up and your group rate is probably lower.  Ours is the opposite.  Oh well...I can't control everything.  I have to just let this one go.  People aren't going because they were expecting to have a price drop off $300 - they are just going because they want to come to our wedding.  Our average prices, because we gave all our guests room options, is $1200-$1300.
