Brighton Line Posted July 15, 2013 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I seem to recall today on Facebook page of the "Senior" Cruise director that Faster To The Fun will be available for the Glory. I went to manage my cruise and then the shore excursions and can't call back anything, for NY or Saint John. All I get is: We're sorry, no excursions match the criteria you selected Please try different criteria or select a different combination to find your perfect cruise. I didn't put in criteria it defaults to his message after trying to generate the default I guess search when the page opens. If I do put search terms in same message. I assume that they are updating the web page but its been 7 hours. So any truth to Glory getting FTTF for August sailings? It would be nice to guaranty to be off the ship first Monday, throwing wife in a cab with the bags and I'm off to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkAndSandy Posted July 15, 2013 #3 Share Posted July 15, 2013 The post I see on JH's Facebook page says it will begin being on sale starting July 29. I suspect you may have to wait until that date before it shows up as a bookable excursion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JKCruisers Posted July 16, 2013 #8 Share Posted July 16, 2013 We're on the Glory October 5, Canada/New England. I kept seeing reports that FTTF is not available on the Glory out of New York -- but I kept checking, as often as 4-5 times daily for months. FINALLY today it showed up when I checked -- I booked it as fast as I could!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it has something to do with the NY port because the same thing is happening on the splendor web page and it also happened for 3 days last week:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tashak Posted July 16, 2013 #10 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Thanks for starting this thread, check and it was available for our cruise! Now I don't have to lug around bags and chase my toddler, that alone is worth the price to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton Line Posted July 16, 2013 Author #14 Share Posted July 16, 2013 . Pays to keep checking! Got it this morning with ONLY 15 slots left. July 29th is not the start date to sign up, just available for cruises starting July 29th and later. Thanks all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cormike1 Posted July 16, 2013 #15 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I am so glad I read this thread! I just went on to the Carnival website and booked it for our cruise on the Glory in September. We arrive quite early in the morning so it will be nice to be able to board right away and have our room ready right away. I also like the early debarkation as our flight is just before noon so I want to make sure we don't miss it....never know about the traffic in NYC I hear. I think it is going to be well worth the $49 price tag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumbofan2008 Posted July 16, 2013 #16 Share Posted July 16, 2013 We just booked it for the Glory sailing on Sept 14th there were only 10 left when I booked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bride123105 Posted July 17, 2013 #17 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Does anyone know if any of the Canada/New England 7 day cruises have any tender ports? Wondering how much FTTF will be worth it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlesnit Posted July 17, 2013 #18 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Luckily was able to book this for our 2 cabins. My DBF is an absolute bear when he has to wait in line (acts more like 6 than his 66 :eek:), so I've been watching and hoping for this to come available. This cruise will also be my niece's and her husband's first, so I thought it would be an extra special treat for them. :) I figured the $100 I spent was less than paying for 2 extra cruises just to become platinum this year. Besides, we've had so many price drops, the cost is covered and we'll still have $$ left to help pay for our Cheers program. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
