Need Help!!!! Make Carnival Listen!!!

[jesscruiser]

I really want the Cheers Program to be fleetwide. Is there anyway to make the "beards" listen!

[firefly333]

What makes you believe that they are not spreading it feetwide eventually?

 

I have not heard that it will be limited? I don't know I admit, just curious why you think it's not going fleetwide. I would think Carnival plans this since it must be a moneymaker.

[jesscruiser]

Lol, they don't seem to be in any hurry to do it, and my TA emailed about it, and they just keep saying is is a current trial.

 

 

 

I think it is a big money maker. I wish they would expand it lol, more specifically by this fall!

[riclop]

Go get a double drink.

[golfadj]

If they figure they make money off of it they will make it fleetwide.

By convincing them that Cheers will make them more money than the traditional pay by the drink method. To that end, convince your follow cruises not to have many drinks when they buy Cheers. Or, alternately, convince the Cheers buyers to spend a lot more money in the shops and the casino. Either one would increase your chances.

By the same token, why do you assume it must be a moneymaker? I really couldn't do more than make a wild guess as to whether they make more money with Cheers or the regular pay by the drink method.

I don't believe it is as big a money maker as people think. They've already bumped the price up on the Victory (allegedly).

 

FTTF is pure profit and is being rolled out at lightning speed.

 

We also have no idea if it is causing more headaches for security (I know, I know people on cruise critic would never over indulge).

For me, I like knowing what the bar bill is before I cruise, and the fact that since I have 15 drinks a day, I can try things I wouldn't normally buy because I was afraid I wouldn't like it!

Agreed, and the more people that figure out a way to share the program with others the less they will make (and again more headaches for the crew from an enforcement standpoint).
