    Vifp offer

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    Posted · Edited by cruisinJenF

    I see you are a frequent Carnival cruiser but not since 2013 and nothing except this most recent cruise booked. Maybe that is the secret. I always have one or two or even three cruises booked. I get casino offers but nothing else......:(

     

    I don't think there is any rhyme or reason why some get it and some don't. I think it's random. I got it and I had two cruises booked. My husband and kids did not get it. I didn't get any of the previous offers, this was the first one.

    Was just looking around Carnival.com and checked the Offers Tap Not expecting any thing and Boom it was sitting there 100pp w 200OBC.I screamed to my partner we finally got one after 23 cruises and 115 days at sea. I'm so Excited and the taxes are 285 and I paid extra 40 pp for OV. I checked the board and I didn't see this listed was this a wide spread offer like some of the Casino ones???

     

    There where 3 offers 4 day Ectasy 4 day Victory and 8 Day Splendor I picked the 8day it's a nice Itinerary

    Congrats!!!! We got that offer to and booked the Splendor also! Picking an 8 day over a 4 day is the way to go! Plus I get a bonus trip to San Juan which I LOVE so much. Hop on over to our roll call. It's a very active group with lots of fun planned. See you on the ship!!!

    Diamond offer now to some Plats and Golds

    I got the offer, my husband who is Platinum did not.

     

    I have cruised recently and have cruises booked. It can't be because of the casino because I have never put more than $20 in a slot machine on a ship ever.

     

    I wish we could swing it, but with our Magic cruise right in the middle of the three choices we can't possibly swing it.

    Am I the ONLY one who doesn't like warm chocolate melting cake?

    Finally tried it last cruise. Was NOT impressed...and I usually love anything chocolate.

     

    What is it about this particular dessert that makes people go ga-ga?:confused: Because I don't get it. It was ok..but nothing to write home about (as my mamaw would say).

     

    I can't stand it. I think it tastes awful! The flavor is bad and it's like eating got brownie batter. Not at all like melted chocolate. Yuk!

    our OV quad guar just got assigned today

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    Posted

    but it is very near the elevators. I noticed that there is another quad cabin 6 doors down' date=' can I request that cabin instead if it is in the same category that our current cabin is in?

     

    Our TA said "no" but I think she is new because she also said I can't put "upgrades ok" on our booking (she said you can only request upgrade availability once we board the ship -- which we experienced carnival cruisers know is NOT true).

     

    I usually book my own cruise but used this online TA because we got $50 obc.[/quote']

     

    Issue is, since you booked with a TA you can't call Carnival and request it. Your TA would have to.

    Triumph 2015 Long Itinerary

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    Posted

    I hope carnival remembers to tell their pax that they all must obtain a visa for brazil if their cruise stops in brazil

     

    This is regardless of wether or not a pax is planning to get off the ship in brazil

     

    When the splendor did its first voyage around South America a few years back and the itin was new again to carnival, 150 pax were denied boarding in Miami because they had not obtained Brazilian visas

     

    Could have been a TA issue

    Could have been that Carnival didn't get the correct info to its pax

     

    Don't know but it is a requirement to have a visa even if staying on the ship in a Brazilian port

     

    I don't know where these new itins are going in South America but this is good info for any cruiser on any line planning to go to brazil or if flying to brazil

    It's not stopping in Brazil- stopping in Columbia, Panama and Costa Rica.

    I wish they would hurry up and get the 3/2/2015 cruise up on the website already. I want to play around with which cabin I want!

     

    My PVP sent me the itinerary and all the info, but I still like to look around and see what cabin before I call him back and book. We are on it FOR SURE!! Our 25th Anniversary is March 10 so we will be celebrating Santa Marta Columbia!

    Our friend wasn't sure if she would like it enough to get the unlimited pass, the guy said if she bought the one time ticket and decided she liked it he would just take the one time ticket price off the unlimited price. So, if you're not sure try it once. She didn't like it btw, made her feel motion sick. We all loved it! It was really fun!

    tender in Cabo San Lucas

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    Posted

    There will be info in the Fun Times where to go and when for tender tickets, just go there 30 mins before. Usually someone is there and you will get your tickets. Only one person has to go get the tickets for your whole group.

    The tenders are really fast and you are really close to shore so it's a quick ride.

    Need Vodka- STAT! Please help! :)

    BUMMER! They say they deliver between 10am and 9pm . . . that is almost 2 days into the trip if it doesn't get there in the morning. Anyone know if it comes early? Otherwise, I am not sure it is really worth it.

     

    You could just call room service after midnight and have them deliver a bottle, it's the same price. The probably hold off til 10am so they don't wake people.
