FTTF Slots

[eponym]

Do they open up more FTTF slots as the cruise date comes closer at Port Canaveral?

 

At 90 and now 80 days out, it shows as sold out, but the ship isn't full and some Plat/Diamonds previously reserved may pull out.

 

If they open up more FTTF sometimes, what would be the somewhat predictable date(s) to check back?

 

Thanks.

It all depends on how many VIFP Platinum and Diamond guests there are. Also I would check as soon as your final payment date is because there maybe guests who previously purchased FTTF and had to cancel or their reservation was cancelled for non-payment. Keep looking and good luck. :)

Check it a couples of times everyday. They can and will add them whenever they want.

I agree with Jay. I have been able to get it everytime, but I check multiple times a day. I make it a mission!

[travlngrl1996]

That is true that they can add anytime they want and they indeed have done so, but they will not add too many FTTF if they have an abundance of platinum and diamond guests.

FTTF opened back up for our cruise the same day a bunch of upgrade offers went out for the cruise. If you get an offer or hear of others getting one, it would be a good time to check FTTF.

Do you recall about how long in advance of the cruise date that happened (4 weeks, 6 weeks, 8 weeks, etc..)?

 

Thank you.

We had some open up fir our April 12 cruise on February 26.

Last year, we booked the Breeze in March, for a July cruise.

FTTF was sold out. FOREVER.

I checked about 10X per day.:eek::eek:

Yup. I have issues.

But in May, they opened up about 18 spots.

We grabbed one.:D:D

Just keep checking, religiously!!!!

Good Luck, and have a great cruise!!!!!!

I read the title of this thread, and thought FTTF slots? How do they pull that off? If you have FTTF, you get to have any slot machine available to you at any time?

 

Yes, I'm a blonde...

Check several times a day. It was sold out when we booked and we managed to get one last week--at about 30 or so days out.

Thank you all. I'm going to go OCD daily checking for an opening!

Yep, I tune in the minute someone mentions "slots" :D and immediately think of the slot machines as well. :p

 

 

OP, we managed to get the FTTF on our upcoming cruise at around 1 month out after it being sold out for awhile. It lasted for several days (despite others saying it would sell out in a matter of minutes to hours) before it was gone again. It's all about the supply and demand. :)

On March 4th, FTTF opened up for our April 26th cruise on the Liberty out of San Juan.

They just opened fttf for the may 3 on the magic in gavliston today about 20 minutes ago

[cruisinchick71]

They just opened up some spots for April 27th sailing of fantasy out of Charleston.

[fuzz508pd]

Where do we find if they opened any more spots? Online?

[dono72]

Online is all I know to do. I contacted my PVP a week or so ago and asked him if there was anything he could do. He told me to just keep checking online which I've done about 8 times per day. Some opened up yesterday for a cruise in June and I got one. Within an hour, it was sold out again. Just keep checking and hope for luck.

Thank you for the encouraging, additional information!
