2016 Excursions

[Raxter54]

Our Jan 31 2016 Dream cruise now has a total of 25 excursions listed, 13 for Mahogany Bay, 4 for Belize, and 8 for Cozumel. No FTTF yet, guess Carnival isn't done negotiating with themselves :rolleyes:

 

Progress! We are up to 59 excursions now, none for NOLA, 15 for Mahogany Bay, 17 for Belize, and 27 for Cozumel. Don't really care about the Cozumel excursions, probably going to do Nachi Cocum again...

How do you see they are almost sold out?

Noticed today that CCL added the Home Port Advisory for our Mar 2016 cruise. Getting closer. :)

 

I asked on the carnival board but what the heck is this??? I don't see you can do anything with it?

When you go into to book if it is getting low it will say only so many left. There's one for my cruise which says only 8 spaces left.

[Chantill0308]

Ok. Ty RW20 :)

Finally got the shore excursion for Grand Cayman we have been waiting for. I was beginning to think they weren't going to offer it. Now just waiting for Amazing race.

We are still waiting for the excursions for Martinique and Tobago since nothing has shown up yet. Sunshine cruise is 7 months away so we still have plenty of time.

Anyone know if all the January excursions are online yet?

 

We just booked the Pride for Jan 10, and we were thinking of doing Kennedy Space center, but it's not listed. Getting there on our own is a pain, and not significantly cheaper (for just the two of us) than through the ship.

 

In fact, there are only 5 excursions listed for Port Canaveral.

They keep adding some every week it seems. Some may not be listed I was told until 3 months out. We are still waiting on an excursion for our next sailing.

For the past 2 weeks the excursions for our 31 Jan Dream cruise have been steady at 89. I've heard that Carnival is 'negotiating ' contracts for 2016 cruises and they should start putting them up by 6 months from sail date. Anxiously waiting....

When I look up excursions based on destination, not through my booking, there are 57. When I look through booking there are only 50. So hopeful the last 7 will come up soon because one of them is the one we want.

Excellent idea. I went and checked our cruise using your method. A total of 118 excursions using destinations, but only 89 showing up for the cruise. Hope the remaining 29 show up soon :D

We have been looking up under destinations too which shows excursions for 1 Port(Martinique) of our 2 Ports not listed yet for purchase for our Sunshine cruise for Feb 2016. Tobago is not even listed under destinations maybe because Carnival does not go there often and they are finalizing contracts with tour operators in Tobago. Maybe then, that Port will be listed under destinations.

For our Jan 31 Dream cruise, there are still only 89 excursions showing up. Keep hearing different times when they should all be listed, 6 weeks, 90 days, etc. At least with all my checking I was able to snag FTTF when it first was posted:-)

Congratulations on FTTF :) We snagged ours too because I was checking so much. Still waiting for Amazing Race Cozumel to show up. I got different times too (60 days, 90 days) but we are looking at other excursions just in case it doesn't show.

I sent an email to Carnival over the weekend asking when we could expect all the excursions for our Jan31 Dream cruise would be posted. Just received this answer (removed my e-mail and the name of the guest support representative):

Hello Raymond,

 

 

I hope this email finds you well.

 

 

All excursions will be loaded within 5-6 months of sailing. Please continue to check periodically for availability.

 

 

 

Please advise if additional assistance is needed.

So, guess I'll keep checking til the end of August and see if he is correct....

On Aug 5, I got the following email response from Carnival, regarding our Jan 10 sailing on Pride:

 

Thank you for contacting Carnival Cruise Lines. We appreciate the opportunity to be of assistance.

 

 

 

As it is almost 6 months prior to your sailing date not all excursions have been loaded to the website, once allocations are checked with the tour operators all excursions will be loaded. Kindly check the website again in a few months.

I booked one thru Carnival for our cruise in April and two others directly with the vendor. I tried contacting Carnival about one in Grand Cayman with no response. Booked with vendor because they only had 1 time slot left and only 12 seats with our cruise still over 7 months away.
