barbatkins Posted August 8, 2012 #455 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I did a dummy reservation today to see how many passes were left for my liberty booking, last night my 8:00am-9:00am pass said 9 left. When you check now it says 15 left between 11:00am-12:00pm. So I'm guessing it's 15 passes every hour until embarkation is over???

tikimon Posted August 8, 2012 #458 Share Posted August 8, 2012 The next thing to come along after this program goes fleetwide will be: On debarkation day as soon as the ship is docked and tied to the pillings all guest that are Plats and Diamond will be thrown overboard along with your luggage, without even a thank you for cruising with us, to make room for the next batch of perk paying passengers so they can board early and go straight to their cabins :rolleyes: No I don't like the program and I see nothing but a complete failure in it's very near future. For all the ones on this thread saying it is great, don't hold your breath to long cause everything Carnival has tried to inprove on in the last several years has turned into a complete mess. I've only been cruising since Dec 2000 and it is nothing like it was in just those past few years. I don't cruise for the perks on any cruiseline, I cruise because I love being on the ocean and visiting different ports of call. I have never felt the need to complain to anyone on any cruise that I've been on, nor have I ever asked for any favors from the Grand Ambassador, but what the cruiselines have said that I have earned for my past loyality I have gladly excepted. No I don't belive you should be able to buy what others have had to earn from the past. That's one thing that is wrong with the country that we live in today, if you have enough money you can buy your way into or out of anything, never having to earn anything or answer for any of your actions. I say NO Carnival, STOP this mess before you even start it! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_duck Posted August 8, 2012 #459 Share Posted August 8, 2012 No I don't like the program and I see nothing but a complete failure in it's very near future. Depends on how you gauge failure. Carnival is going to sell a ton of these to people who don't really understand what they are buying. That it causes disappointment and chaos I don't know that Carnival will care.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I am wondering about that as well. Yesterday I booked it for my upcoming cruise and this is my booking: Activity Date & Time Guests .Faster To The Fun! Sat, Sep 22, 2012 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM Cynthia Grindal Now when I look online to book it shows this: Select a Shore Excursion Time: 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM $49.95 Only 13 tickets remain! I know that one of my roll call people book last night and said it was showing only 9 tickets were left at that time. Curious to say the least....hmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyn7 Posted August 8, 2012 #462 Share Posted August 8, 2012 My boarding passes and luggage tags show a "Faster to the Fun" logo on them but it doesn't specify a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruzn buckeye Posted August 8, 2012 #465 Share Posted August 8, 2012 We booked ours sometime yesterday early afternoon. There were only 15 available before we purchased. But remember, 15 left, is for 15 cabins , not people. If there are 4 to a cabin, I know not likely, but say if... that is 60 more people in that same line to get on the ship as the Platinum and Diamond vips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzn buckeye Posted August 8, 2012 #466 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I like that they are going to add a VIP line on tender ports for on the way back to the ship. I missed this.... where did you read it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me that it's AFTER but it would be nice to have some clarification as to that point. This seems to be the stickler. If it is indeed AFTER the Platinum/Diamond folks, then there is simply no reason for all this hubbabaloo as it won't affect the service nor experience of the Platinum/Diamond cruisers!

After they are through this process, they will go to another line and the vips will go to the vip lounge to get their sas cards and check in. there is a very good possibility that they will be boarding before platinum/diamonds.

Cruise4Music Posted August 8, 2012 #474 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Here is my problem with all this. Right now there is poll running on CC Carnival board about this topic. As of right now 387 people have voted. How many people do you think cruise with Carnival each week? You can complain all you want if it makes you feel better. I would rather express my opinion with my money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
