Casino offer

Just got the VIFP casino promotion for great rates on several sailings. My question is can you book more than one sailing. I called Carnival and the representative said no....can only reserve one sailing. I'm just asking the knowledge-rich folks here on Cruise Critic if that is the case. TIA for info.

With all my offers I have been allowed to book multiple sailings. My last offered ended yesterday and I haven't gotten a new one yet. I'm really hoping for the pack and play offer to come back soon!

Yes you can,I have done in the past. Sailed 6x last year .

I got the casino offer and booked a sailing, my question is, what are the benefits of this rate? ive read you get some casino credit and heard rumors of things being delivered to your stateroom...just want to know if someone knows for sure

Does anyone know how often the casino rate rotates? We did't book and now its at a higher rate. Still got about 3 1/2 months before ideal date.

I know I've posted this in other casino threads.

There are different casino offers. I've booked a couple of times under just a casino rate that was less than other rates. That included nothing except a little casino cash.

There are also Premier Casino cruises, which may be what the OP is talking about. I took my first one on 11/29 and am going on another on 5/31. Those are also lower rates and depending on your fare code, you get casino cash of various amounts. I'm not a big spender, so I "only" get $300 cash.

These cruises have perks - private cocktail party on embarkation day, daily drawings, goodies delivered to the cabin, free tournament entries, free drinks in the casino.

As far as I know, plenty of people have booked multiple cruises under the same Premier offer.

I have a current Premier offer (different from the one I booked) that's good through 5/19 for 10 different cruises. Since I already have four cruises booked within a year, I have to pass. But I would think that if I wanted to book 2 or 3 under the current offer that I could do so.

I actually just uncovered the mailed offer and there's nothing on it that says anything about a limit to the number of Premier offers you can book.

I've never had the premium offers. The most I've gotten was a discount on cruise and $50 on the ship.

Yes, you can book more than one cruise under the casino offer as long as you book before the offer expires. I've booked several types of casino offers-- regular casino offers, premier casino offers, and pack and play. I've never been restricted from booking more than one casino offer during the offer timeframe.

You can book multiple sailings under the casino offer. Book online if you can. Most of the phone reps at Carnival don't know anything. You will get a different answer every time you call.

I just booked a casino rate. how do I know if it includes any cash or credit for onboard? should it state that or was it just for a lower rate?

Thanks. I noticed that too.....nothing stated about number of sailing limits. I can actually get the 14-nighter on the Glory in Oct. for $232 for an interior. Looks as if I'm going to book 3-4 sailings starting in August.

I booked 2 cruises with a casino offer. It was just the basic offer (not premier) which shaved about $100 per person off my balcony cabin rate. Online the offer said something like "may include casino cash" and even after I booked one cruise, that rate was still available online so I could definitely book multiple cruises but I'm not sure how the casino cash or tokens would work. I had also received flyers in the mail which included a coupon for $50 in casino cash. The coupon had a serial number on it. When I went to the casino, they took the coupon and they checked my name off on list that they had. I received another flyer which says I'll get casino tokens. I'll bring that flyer on the other cruise. If I didn't have the coupons, I'm not 100% sure that there would be cash.

Pack and Play come back soon Please

Pack and Play come back soon Please

I looked under my VIFP specials on Friday, and there was a pack and play, which expires on April 13, though it just appeared, as I check it daily. It was supposed to be 2-4 day cruises out of L.A. When I looked for May and June, I saw some 7 day ones listed-they were for Alaska on the Legend. I kept searching and was able to book one out of Seattle on Sept 8th. Sailing solo I had to pay $100 , (but I would get that back as OBC), and an additional $171.00 for taxes/port charges.I paid the $100 deposit, have a confirmed booking, and a 4A cabin on the Verandah deck.

So, I don't know, if these promotions are random, or how they work-I'm glad I looked; so, keep looking-you may have one out there!

I received the same offer and it too was expired and stated only two day cruise out of California. When I finally got the calendar to open I searched different dates and found many cruises basically free. Now I just need DH to commit.

We booked the casino rate and then I received an email a week or two after booking telling me to print the email out and take it to the cage for $25. So keep an eye on your email. Maybe they will send it to you.

Thanks for the heads up to keep checking my email. I will do that for awhile

we just booked two cruises from casino offer. one for aug 12 to bahamas and one in oct to canada. keep checking your private offers. something good always appears!!

I've never gotten a Pack-n-Play offer.

I've gotten the "regular" casino offers, and I've now gotten three different Premier offers, but never a Pack-n-Play.

Is it because I already have four cruises booked? :p

How do they determine who gets offered a Pack and Play? I have never received that offer.

I have gotten casino cash, discounts on fares, even Premier Cruise offers

No Pack and Plays!

Thanks

This offer seems to be hit & miss and doesn't seem to have alot to do with how much $$ you're spending. Someone has said that they look at the TIME you spend rather than the $$.

I have been receiving the offers for the last couple of years & have been fortuante enough that I've been able to get the time off work to take advantage of several.

That being said, I do play slots in the casino on every cruise. I did a B2B on the Breeze last year and spent alot of time in the casino; however, I only spent $400 - $500 total in the casino during the entire 14 days. I typically never spend more than $50 a day, so for those who say you have to be spending tons of money in the casino to get these offers - I can tell you that's not true.

I'm not 100% sure how I got lucky enough to get on this "list", but I'm hoping to continue.
