Premier Getaway Lots of Questions--Please Help

[Slippin]

My wife and I are Platinum and cruise only with Carnival. She is a teacher which limits when she can cruise. I have been offered a Premier Getaway and looking to use it for a 4 day on the Fantasy. Here are my questions:

I will have 4 people in my cabin (I have confirmed that is possible to do) but they are adults. My mother and sister have never cruised and I would love to treat them to a very reasonably priced cruise.

What is a four person room setup on the fastay? Who all will receive the Premier Getaway benefits? Who all drinks free in the casino? Do we all have Premier check-in?

I would presume that you all get all the benefits. Anytime we have booked our cruise on an "offer"...everyone in our cabin got it. I'll check back to see any other replies...

assuming you dont have a suite, the rest of the 4 to a cabin has two uppers, that come out of the wall, not out of the ceiling like newer conquest class and newer ships. bottom person hits their head on the upper bunk lol.

 

id have to read the offer to know who gets the benefits, sorry idk either, but i am sure the upper come out of the walls. what other benefits were you offered? curious.

 

check in, everyone in the same cabin will check in the same, so all get this. if i cruise with a newbie, they also get priority check in etc on their docs.

Only the person who receives the offer plus one guest receive the Premier benefits (i.e., DOU cards, entries into drawings, eligibility for Premier slot tournament, etc.). The welcome bag in your cabin will include only two logo gifts. Only the person who receive offer gets the Premier cash. Guests 3 and 4 can obviously board and debark with you, and you could probably sneak them into the Premier welcome cocktail party, but that's about all the extra benefits they get.

 

I would make sure the other person you want to get the Premier benefits is booked as Guest 2, and the other two Guests 3 and 4.

I agree with DallasGuy. Usually one other person in the same cabin will have premier perks except for any casino cash the offer has for you. Since 4 people will be booked in the same cabin, the others in the cabin should be able to enjoy your platinum check-in which typically has earlier boarding than premier. I agree with Firefly about the 2 pull-down beds. It will be tight with 4 people in one cabin. Be sure the 2 people sleeping in the top bunks are up to climbing stairs to get into the beds.

Man I hated those uppers on that class of ship.

 

Ive booked many ways, and booked the you pick the cabin lottery and got a 4 to the cabin choice one time (I was solo, by myself). those supports were in my way. annoying big time.

This would not be worth it for us without getting a Grand Suite - it just wouldn't be relaxing. Just my 2 cents - we won't even put our teenage sons in the same room with us...even a Grand Suite and sharing a bathroom is pushing it.
