Haven't booked a cruise while on a cruise in a year.

I am going on a cruise Saturday and wanting to book a couple of cruises while I am on that cruise and was wondering if they are still offering 100 obc when you book on the ships. I haven't booked this way since last January.

Yes. Be careful as they will automatically book you early saver so you'd have penalties for any changes.

I thought they dropped the OBC to $50 per cabin and no Friends and Family certificate.

That is true on the Vista, not sure about the other ships yet.

We got $50 OBC for a 5 day cruise and 2 friends and family certificates when we booked while on the Triumph in December.

[DaCruiserFromtheATX]

Yeah I forgot to mention that they will both be 7 day cruises.

Doesn't matter anymore. $50 for any length and no Friends and Family Certificates.

Well that stinks. Dont think it is worth it for a measly 50 buck savings.

 

would rather book from home where we have our schedule and can more easily do comparisons.

Princess has a nice obc for fcc just like Carnival used to have. Very disappointing Carnival is going in this direction

So are you sure that was fleet wide and not on just the vista. Called carnival and they stated that for 7 day cruises they were still offering 100 obc. Well doesn't really matter to me I will just book on the cruise and see what happens. Thanks for everyone's info.

On the Magic last week I could have gotten the regular amount based on days and Friends and Family vouchers.

Hopefully it is fleetwide

Well that's fantastic news cause that's the ship I will be on Saturday. :)

Last month on the Splendor, we booked a seven day cruise for Dec 2017 and got two Friends and Family vouchers, and $100.

 

Best idea if you're booking a cruise this way....decide at home exactly which ship, which dates, which cabin [or a range of cabins in case your first choice is unavailable] and know what the price should be. That way you'll be prepared to book without dithering and wasting time at the Future Cruise desk....sometimes, people take a LONG time! When we booked last month, another couple was there looking over a print-out of available cruises and ships that was about 40 pages! They had no idea what they wanted.

Best to book early on cruise before it gets to crowded
