bar10der421 Posted March 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I have been checking pretty much every day-sold out- and then voila! this morning there was one available!! I almost broke my finger hitting the add to cart button! We are sailing June 15, 2014 on the Pride. I am platinum but we are taking my "almost" granddaughter on her first cruise for her 21st birthday and wanted very much to be able to board together. The Carnival rep that I booked with said I could try to take her and her friend through the VIP line with DH and I, maybe it would work maybe it wouldn't. It is so worth the $49 to have one less thing to worry about! If it wasn't for cruise critic I would not have known that "sold out" did not mean forever, so don't give up if you are looking for FTTF!

cruising_diva Posted March 12, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Thanks for posting this! FTTF is sold out on my Oct. 26th booking, and it is starting to bum me out that every time I check, it says "Sold Out!" Thanks for the glimmer of hope. I shall be more aggressive with stalking the Carnival website now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kona_wahine Posted March 12, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 12, 2014 We had FTTF on the dream out of pt canaveral and the liberty out of miami. In pt canaveral we were seated with the diamond and plats. In miami we were seated with general boarding and the diamond and plats were separate. Just wanted to point that out incase you are leaving from miami.

cruising_diva Posted March 12, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Yep, Oct. 26th on the Dream! It's a small world. Your username rings true to me as well. It will be myself, my husband, and my autistic brother in law. We're sharing a deluxe Ocean View 6M. I can't wait. While I do hope we both get lucky, even if we don't, embarkation through NO is easy enough, especially if you get there early. I wanted FTTF for the tendering port and other benefits.

maldenmusic Posted March 20, 2014 #6 Share Posted March 20, 2014 AS they see how many diamond/platinum cruisers they have they may add more F2TF spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tncap Posted March 20, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 20, 2014 They released an additional 15 yesterday for the Dream 9/21 sailing. I purchased just to try it out. They didn't last long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for us-we loved having immediate access to our cabin to put our things away. Didn't think about tendering, that would be helpful, too! 210 days to go!

sjcruiser Posted March 30, 2014 #9 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I check several times a day for the August 16th Sunshine. I think it opened up once since I booked in early February. I from previous experience I'm still hopefully they'll make another set open before cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zee909 Posted March 30, 2014 #10 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Has anyone noticed if there is some particular time of day they're most likely to release FTTF? Or is it pretty much any time of the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daremi3 Posted March 30, 2014 #11 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) I've been checking daily for weeks for my June 21 Breeze 8 day sailing. No luck. One night while at work I checked at 330 AM....and there was one available. Just one. I made a mad dash for the credit card. I checked about 12 hrs earlier and there wasn't any. I don't know how many they released. Edited March 30, 2014 by daremi3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christyran1228 Posted March 31, 2014 #12 Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) 11/9/14 is sold out on the Magic, too. There were several available when we originally booked on the 11/13 Triumph, but when we upgraded our trip ... no dice. I have it bookmarked on my phone hoping we'll be lucky. If not, we'll survive. We'll just have to save any trips to guest services until 3:00am. And hope the S&S kiosks aren't broken..lol Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk Edited March 31, 2014 by christyran1228 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
