nanaj1 Posted December 4, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I remember once being on a cruise, and the passengers were given an option to get the next cruise at a very reduced price. Has this happened to anyone lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campperson Posted December 4, 2016 #2 Share Posted December 4, 2016 No. We do b2bs fairly regularly and we are told they quit doing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wheels87 Posted December 4, 2016 #3 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I've done 3 B2B with Carnival and I've never seen this. You do usually get a free bottle of champagne, which is nice. Happy sailing! Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted December 4, 2016 #4 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I've done several B2B cruises, all booked in advance. But I've been cruising exclusively on Carnival (39 times) since 2001 and I've never received or heard of anyone getting an offer like that. I suppose if a ship, like recently the Liberty, suddenly knew that they were going to be sailing only partially full due to mechanical issues and many people cancelling, they might make that offer to the current guests to try to fill the next sailing.

LostPuppy Posted December 4, 2016 #5 Share Posted December 4, 2016 We had this option on the Inspiration out of NOLA in 2001. During our cruise the 9/11 attacks occurred in New York/Washington. With all the unknowns and the lack of transportation (airlines shut down), Carnival was discounting a second week on the ship. If I recall correctly we could stay in our cabin (an OS, now an 11) for $300 dollars, approximately 1/4th the normal price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Shoes2Go Posted December 4, 2016 #6 Share Posted December 4, 2016 We were booked on a 7 day Fantasy (rare) Carnival Live. Received an email and call from "Eric" offering a b2b. The cruise following, also a 7 day was greatly reduced, even same cabin. Wish he'd call again! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has this happened to anyone lately? Not anymore. The majority of cruises are sold out. Our hurricane season b2b this year was sold out nearly a month before sailing.

tonit964 Posted December 5, 2016 #8 Share Posted December 5, 2016 On our 11/16 cruise on the Miracle to Mexico, it was going to Hawaii next. On the second to the last night (Thanksgiving) our dining room waiter told us that the price for the next cruise was super low, a really great deal and the ship was not close to being sold out, a few people at his tables actually left the dining room to go to guest services to book it and he kept their dinner warm for them until they returned. Wish we could have taken advantage of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
