I received a letter from Carnival stating that I get a free cabin for myself and a guest. I would pay port charges and taxes and it would be probably the worst cabin on the ship but it has me looking at airfare prices. Anyone else get this letter and what do you know about this????

There was another thread today about that deal with someone who booked it. Here is a link to that thread. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1987638

Its real. We got two letters. We sail in less than a month. Offer was for inside cabin for $50 plus ports with $50 per person OBC. We upgraded to Aft Balcony for $140 extra. So $240 plus ports with $100 OBC. Second offer we have not decided on yet.

I booked mine over the phone just to be sure! I got the letter in the mail today. Just booked an 8-day Southern Caribbean cruise on the Carnival Breeze!!!

 

Also, I haven't cruised Carnival since 2010, and I spent no time in the casino. But I think this is an awesome promotion because I was considering several cruises for spring break, and Carnival wasn't even on my list (to be quite honest, I was rather content with never sailing Carnival again). But I'm not passing up a free cruise! And now I have plenty of money to put towards my bar tab!!

:) DH got the letter by snail mail today. I have a cabin on 24 hour hold since my Carnival rep didn't return my call. Curious....did you all spend some time in the casino on your last cruise? Both DH & I did & are wondering if this is related to that?

 

You can find your answer on the original thread.

Congrats to all of us!

 

Any ideas of places to stay in Miami?

 

Not sure what price point you would be interested in but I was very happy with the Courtyard by Marriott Downtown, 200 SE 2nd Ave, Miami

We have also stayed at a LaQuinta in Miami that was very reasonably priced but in a crazy location & was almost impossible to find at night.

I have never used Priceline but have had many friends who get great deals using the site.

DD was just contacted by Carnival for a free cruise that must be taken by June. Being the cautious dad I had her call the regular Carnival 800 number from the website. (We all know there are lots of scams out there!)

 

It's legit!

 

She hasn't booked it yet. She isn't sure where she wants to fly to, or possibly avoid the airport and drive to Long Beach for the Mexican Riviera cruise.

 

Boy, is she excited!!! She has been on two 7 day cruises out of Galveston with friends and family. Mrs. Maitaiguy and I didn't go with her on those trips.

 

I wish Carnival would contact me!!! We were on the 12 day European inaugural for Sunshine last May. Sure is great for DD though!

 

I'm happy for her but just a bit jealous......:rolleyes:

We received a letter like that in October and just got back from our cruise in January . There was three of us that went so we had to pay a little extra for the 3rd person but a 7 day cruise with a balcony room for three people cost the amount of ONE person in a balcony room on a 7 day cruise ... It was awesome
