Rare chasinraynbowz Posted March 13, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 13, 2018 It's been a while because I usually purchase it when I purchase the cruise, but yes.... we have been able to purchase within a month of sailing. Just keep your eyes open. Check it daily, if not several times a day. Good luck!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamscckmc Posted March 13, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Yes. Last three cruises I got it closer than that. Sometimes you just catch one when someone cancels. They need see how many platinums and diamonds they have. They can only have so many rooms ready early. Keep checking, and check many times a day. I've gotten it at midnight and one time I got up at 3am to go to the bathroom and checked and it was available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firemanbobswife Posted March 13, 2018 #4 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Yes. 10 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AR Patriot Posted March 13, 2018 #5 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Our last cruise we booked on a Monday for embark on Sunday. Scored FTTF on Tuesday or Wednesday. This was out of Long Beach and it seems people aren't trying to get on the ship early like we experienced out of Galveston.

dolita22 Posted March 13, 2018 #8 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Sorry to say, but no, we were never able to purchase it. Booked the Glory back in August of last year and checked multiple times per day up until we sailed (a few weeks ago, Feb. 17-24) and it just never became available. It was sold out from our time of booking. We evaluated the benefits and thought it would be nice to have, but in the end, we were okay without it. Enjoy your cruise with or without FTTF!

AR Patriot Posted March 14, 2018 #9 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Middle of the night / early morning is the method I have used to to score FTTF last 3 cruises. It helps that I get up at 0400 - 0430 for work. Sent from my FRD-L04 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelly_Toast Posted March 14, 2018 #10 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I've been checking multiple times daily for my November cruise as well, it's been sold out since I booked several months ago. We have never cruised without FTTF before, but it's honestly starting to feel like a part time job with all the checking. I'm starting to wonder if it's worth my time anymore. I'll probably keep doing it though. :') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This far out from your cruise they don't know how many priority passengers they have yet to release max amount of FTTF.

Rare L1211 Posted March 14, 2018 #13 Share Posted March 14, 2018 We booked Victory for spring break (were on right now!) about a month out and it was available. Was still available up to a week out.

asalligo Posted March 14, 2018 #14 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Yes, I did this on my last cruise on the Paradise. Only booked it about 35 days out and snagged FTTF a week later. I was checking morning, noon, and night though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
