Crunchy Mountain Mama Posted February 8, 2006 #1 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Just wondering if and when they stop selling cabins? Or can you book right up until the day of sailing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jckvpa0 Posted February 8, 2006 #2 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I believe it might be 48 hrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkk Posted February 8, 2006 #4 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I'm sure someone on these boards knows EXACTLY..but as far as I know...since 9/11..you have to be 2 days out or more because the manifests have to filed and cannot be changed again prior to sailing.

mc'smom Posted February 8, 2006 #5 Share Posted February 8, 2006 In Sept. I tried to book a Disney Cruise a 3 night and wanted to book on Monday and leave Thursday, and couldn't DCL said it had to be 72 hours prior to sailing .. Becasue of the manifest and Homeland Security... Now I don't know if that is the case on all cruise ships or not...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroupCruiser Posted February 8, 2006 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2006 You can book up until the time they sell out, or 48 hours, whichever comes first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cotton Posted February 8, 2006 #7 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I was under the impression that the manifest for any sailing had to be turned in to the Coast Guard 72 hours prior to the cruise date.....:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.T.B. Posted February 8, 2006 #8 Share Posted February 8, 2006 I was under the impression that the manifest for any sailing had to be turned in to the Coast Guard 72 hours prior to the cruise date.....:confused: It is. It was changed, IIRC, approximately a year or so ago. I want to say Dec. of '03. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefboyrdee Posted February 8, 2006 #9 Share Posted February 8, 2006 the manifest has to be to homeland security 72 hrs before sailing but i work for carnival and have people book the day before the sailingand get on the ship. we even had one person come to the terminal and book the day of the sailing ,although he had to get approval from homeland security and had to fax his passport info to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruizinwoman Posted February 8, 2006 #10 Share Posted February 8, 2006 WOW! and we thought booking the week before was cutting it close. Booked on a Monday and set sail the following Sunday. :eek: I still have time to pack and unpack and repack (3 times) before we sailed. DH still teases me about it... I can't help it. It's compulsive!:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzdirector Posted February 8, 2006 #11 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Chefboyardee- Thanks for answering the question. What do you do at Carnival. You are brave to admit that you are an employee. Questions will probably be fired at you right and left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
