Timing of casino rates

[lmf24lmf]

We recently returned from another wonderful Carnival cruise. I’ve already started to look at cruises for next April, but my husband‘s casino rates are not showing up yet For a vacation so far away.

I’m wondering how close to sailing those rates begin to show up?

From my expeirence. seems like my Casino Offers are for the next 4-6 months from when they show up in "My Offers" on the VIFP pages.

 

Also. don't know if this is a direct correlation or not, but the offers that came out around the end of February are for not as much cash as the ones I ususally take from December to March. I am guessing the summer cruises are more in demand and therefore don't get as good as far as offers go.

 

I usually sail early december and Jan/ Feb and get the same code (PC4), but my April cruise this upcoming week was for not as much cash.

I receive my cheapest casino rates from bounce back offers I receive on the last night of our cruises - usually free or $30-50 per person and $100 OBC - and have to book them within a couple of weeks of returning and they are usually just good for a few months. Last 5 cruises in 7 months have been really, really cheap bounce back offers. Just booked the Paradise for a Cuba cruise today that sails in May, courtesy of a bounce back offer on the Miracle last week. Right now, I have several casino rate offers in my VIFP file. If you didn't receive a bounce back offer the last night of your most recent cruise, I don't know when you might see a casino rate offer coming your way. You could contact the Player's Club and ask.
