RumpunchGirl Posted December 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 2, 2015 When does FTTF become available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisajm Posted December 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 2, 2015 It varies. I booked a cruise last night for March and FTTF was available. I have had to wait until a month prior to the sail date. In the instances when it was not immediately available I checked multiple times daily. Spots open usually around the time of final payment and throughout depending on how many Platinum and Diamonds are booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Securityman Posted December 2, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Book it as soon after you book your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakersdozen12 Posted December 2, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Email shoreexcursions@carnival.com and they can give you a rough idea of when it will be available for your cruise. Edited December 2, 2015 by bakersdozen12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notyours75 Posted December 2, 2015 #5 Share Posted December 2, 2015 They open up additional FTTF slots over time depending on the bookings, numbers of diamond/plat passengers, suites, etc. You basically have to stalk it on the Carnival website under the shore excursions. I found it, and bought it, for our Jan 25 Freedom cruise 80 days out, at 12am. When I checked again at 4a it was sold out again. Previous cruise found it about 16 days out. Its worth it.

RumpunchGirl Posted December 2, 2015 Author #6 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Thanks for the replies. There are no shore excursions available for my next Carnival cruise yet. It's been a few years since I've sailed Carnival and I think FTTF is new since my last one in 2012. I keep checking and hopefully I be able to get one.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted December 2, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 2, 2015 We booked over a year out for our 2016 cruise. We are sailing in January and did not see FTTF released until June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinsly Posted December 3, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I booked a few months ago for Dec 2016 and it was already available. I was able to snatch up two for each of my rooms that I booked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjunea Posted December 3, 2015 #9 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I booked our next cruise last Sunday night for late July. I went immediately and booked FTTF. no problems. Hopefully, only 1 more cruise and I'll be platinum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mzlinda Posted December 3, 2015 #10 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I booked a few months ago for Dec 2016 and it was already available. I was able to snatch up two for each of my rooms that I booked. I hope that's a typo on your part. You only need 1 per room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlocole Posted December 3, 2015 #11 Share Posted December 3, 2015 When I check excursions on Carnival under my booking, I am able to add FTTF to my shopping cart. And my cruise is 10 months away...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adge01 Posted December 3, 2015 #12 Share Posted December 3, 2015 From looking at the OP's signature it looks like she might be questioning the availability of her Vista '17 cruise. I am booked Vista for April '17 and it doesn't appear as if they have released any FTTF yet for my cruise dates, so I am thinking she may be patiently waiting as I am and questioning how far in advance do they release the first batch of FTTF?

That's exactly right! I keep checking excursions but there is nothing listed yet. My next cruise is in 44 days on NCL so I've been focusing on the cruise board for the last year. I am looking forward to my next cruise but I am so excited about coming back to Carnival!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
