Just snagged FTTF!!

[jimicaj]

Our cruise is in less than two weeks and FTTF became available. It's my mom and sister's first cruise, so they really don't understand how lucky we are to snap this up! My sister's response was, and I quote "okie dokie". LOL

[kona_wahine]

cool. I recently booked a cruise for next year and first thing DH asked "did you get FTTF?" lol

[maldenmusic]

We are trying this for the first time on our June cruise. Looking forward to trying it out on my 8th cruise.

What is FTTF?

 

Thanks

Was FTTF previously "sold out" on your cruise and they opened it up again, or was it always available? We are sailing the Dream on 3/15 and wanted FTTF but it has been sold out for weeks now. Thanks

We had FTTF on our recent Breeze cruise. We were brought to a private waiting area, then we walked right past hundreds of people who were waiting to board the ship. We could hear them asking each other why we were able to board so quickly. When your sister walks by hundreds of people, she will understand then.

Faster To The Fun = FTTF. It is a perk to have express boarding on embarkation, your room ready earlier than others, priority tendering, as well as few other conveniences. Look for it on your "shore excursions" link.

Your question was already answered so I just wanted to say Welcome to Cruise Critic! :D

I did too and I am cruising in 10 in days, March 16th on the Pride. It was sold out about 1 month ago and I just noticed that there was 1 available this week, but that would not have helped because I have two cabins. I called Carnival and they told me to e-mail the shore excursion desk and see what they could do. I got an e-mail back that they show 3 available for that cruise and to clear my cookies on the computer and it should show, so I could book it. The funny thing is that I did not clear my cookies on my computer and but now it show 3 available. I almost think they added two so I could book. Not sure but glad I was able to get the fttf.:p

I do have one question though, being this is the first time I have purchased the fttf. When you go to the MDR, is there a separate line for fttf, vip & plat. members. I thought I remember seeing one last year but can not remember for sure.

FTTF is sold out for my May 21 cruise out of Charleston on the Fantasy. Since she's a smaller ship, I'm hoping I won't notice much of a difference with or without FTTF.

There is no special line for the MDR. You must be thinking of Guest Services.

No, everyone stands in the same line.

Thanks to everyone answering my question. It probably was the quest service desk that I remember. I do the any time dining so as long as we go early we never seem to wait. Only have 10 days so I really need to start packing. :p

Keep checking back daily, The Pride was Sold numerous times and I still got my fttf for two cabins 10 days before we cruise.:)

is it clearly indicated the waiting area?

[Got2GoGo]

I tried to buy FTTF about an hour ago, but it was sold out. I posted about it to this forum and then did as advised and checked back. Guess what? Twenty (20) had just become available! Make that 19 now since I nabbed one. So, perhaps the Carnival cruise people DO monitor forums like this, or maybe it was just a stoke of luck?

[grumpyjr88]

Well, okie dokie then!

 

I love FTTF so I can drop my carry on as soon as I board. I don't really care about all the other perks as much.

 

Have a great cruise!

Thanks and LOL re okie dokie (homage to OP) :D

I've only cruised once before (Disney), but I like the idea of being about to go directly to my cabin, dump my bag, and then head to lunch.

Haha! I'll post my mom's quote whenever she repolies, but it will most likely be "oh mylanta!" They are the cutest :-)

What exactly is this?

 

Does everyone have to pay it or just each cabin?

[mts315]

I keep seeing these post about FTTF being sold out and hard to come by. My sailing is July 27th and the cruise must not be selling well because I booked a month ago and FTTF was available. I purchased and there were 12 left, I check back occasionally to see what the number is and toady there are still seven left.

[Lily429]

where do you see how many are left???
