cherbear4000 Posted February 18, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I went to book a cruise today for July 2014. (Liberty leaving 7/19). The only rates available are fun saver or early saver. We usually book past guest. We don't want to book early saver since we want the ability to cancel without penalty. I can't believe Carnival would get rid of all of the other rate options.

Namelocg Posted February 18, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Early saver hasn't gone away. It's just too close to your sail date..check later in the year, it should be there. It was when I looked yesterday for a cruise in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnSpo Posted February 18, 2014 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Sometimes when Carnival has a sale going on, certain categories of fares may not be available. Keep checking, past guest will return.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatlinSTJ Posted February 18, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Make sure you click to view all the available rates. And yes, keep checking back as Carnival rotates what is available. Next cruise: Carnival Breeze June 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larkz Posted February 18, 2014 #6 Share Posted February 18, 2014 On the "Your Rate" tab, look for the tiny text link "Other rates." They're hiding the other options now, which is kind of a scummy scammy tactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherbear4000 Posted February 18, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted February 18, 2014 On the "Your Rate" tab, look for the tiny text link "Other rates." They're hiding the other options now, which is kind of a scummy scammy tactic. I did check the 'other rates'. The only rates available to select are either Fun Select or Early Saver. Of course, Wednesday is 5 months out and probably the last day to book early saver. Since I don't want to book early saver, I will wait a few days and see what Carnival does.

riclop Posted February 18, 2014 #8 Share Posted February 18, 2014 That rate comes and goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ehpride Posted February 18, 2014 #9 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Try calling them to book. They may have access to more rate types. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twentyknots Posted February 18, 2014 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I too always use past guest rate. A few weeks ago I started looking at the Fantasy for October 4 and saw that many good cabins were available on upper deck mid ship but the past guest rate wasn't available. I waited for several days and watched as my first and second choice cabins disappeared. I decided I couldn't wait any longer so I booked with early saver since it was only $50 deposit and the risk of losing that was worth getting the cabin I want. Plus, I have the potential for a lower rate after final, but I won't be holding my breath for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
