rok233 Posted April 14, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Can I bring someone to the Premier open bar party on the first evening if they're not staying in my cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springs741 Posted April 14, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Are you sailing solo? On my premier cruises the invitations were in my name and my cabin mates name. (hubby). I am sure that is how it still works as my last premier was in September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sana216 Posted April 14, 2015 #3 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Can I bring someone to the Premier open bar party on the first evening if they're not staying in my cabin? I don't think so. Everyone will be wearing their premier card holder. But if it is just yourself then give it a try. I wouldn't try to take more than one other person in. The party only last about 45 minutes.

winddawn Posted April 14, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Who pays for the open bar? The open bar and hors d'oeuvres are part of the premier casino activities and typically occur on embarkation day as a welcome aboard event. The details and invitation are delivered to your cabin on embarkation day, and then other event invitations and other gifts are delivered to your cabin throughout the cruise. Normally the premier perks are extended to the casino invited guest and whoever they are sharing their cabin with (gambling age restriction applies).

I obviously have no idea what a premier cruise is. I thought it was a group thing where everyone paid to have an open bar:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You receive free drinks in the casino while playing for the entire cruise. Your drink card will be in your cabin when you arrive on the ship. You also recieve a gift in your cabin almost every night of the cruise. The open bar welcome party is about 45 minutes or so and free for the premier cruising guests. It is a really nice time and I feel carnival treats the premier guests very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted April 14, 2015 #10 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Yes May 8 is our cruise we are on the same one. What is an elite casino cruise, only heard of the premier, is the elite the super premier cruise or is that something different? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the highest casino cruise (above the ultra). Free drinks anywhere on the ship. A free excursion and either car service from the airport or paid parking at the port. It is limited to 40 guest and their traveling partners per cruise. So many free things to describe here. Would you be interested in a meet before the premier cocktail party? Then we can tell you all that went on. And get our party started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sana216 Posted April 15, 2015 #17 Share Posted April 15, 2015 (edited) Where do they hold the cocktail party at..... There will be someone in the casino before sailing to let you know. It is held in one of the show rooms. Look for the premier casino table in the casino, someone from carnival should be there.

NCTribeFan Posted April 15, 2015 #18 Share Posted April 15, 2015 All the info is in your cabin when you check in. I went on my first Premier cruise on 11/29 and am going on one 5/31 (both solo). I was told that if I had a friend join me, they would get all the amenities except the casino cash. So, someone can join you IF they're in your cabin. This is what was in the cabin upon check in. Note the list of activities. I'm guessing the cocktail invitation was in the black envelope in the front of the picture. The black card on the lanyard is the casino drinks card.

TiffyLtheDork Posted April 15, 2015 #19 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I'd love to know what it took to start getting these perks. Certain amount of money spent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdlgs Posted April 15, 2015 #20 Share Posted April 15, 2015 My husband and I just came home from a Premier Cruise off the Pride. We have had more fun on a non Premier Cruise than this one. The goodies were OK but the casino was SUPER crowded! The dealers were over worked and not that friendly. In fact, when I was talking to the casino host someone came up and asked her why she was ignoring them. She said there are 150 premier people on this ship and if I talked to everyone I would never sleep. Honestly the same perks we received on the premier are just about the same perks we get on a regular cruise ie. dinner at the steakhouse, wine, cookies, DOU card and lots of attention in the casino.

caribnsnrklr Posted April 15, 2015 #22 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Yes you can bring a guest with you even if they are in other cabin. My dad didn't want to share a cabin last year on my first premiere cruise and they told me I could bring him to party. Have fun!! I have been to three and had a blast.
