Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted August 17, 2021 #3 Share Posted August 17, 2021 If it's the same offer I jumped on twice out of Baltimore (September and October), it's not really $100 because they give you $100obc in return for paying the $100 cruise rate. So you're really just paying taxes, port fees, etc. My kind of casino offer!!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djptcp Posted August 17, 2021 #7 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Just got back from a $100 per person for balcony on the Magic (4 days), $200 in casino Fun Play, $200 onboard credit, and free drinks for me in casino. Just really paid for the port charges, taxes, fees plus I won a $1,360 jackpot on a slot. Got back yesterday and booked another $100 per person for balcony on the Magic (6 days) for late Oct. with same Fun Play, OBC, and free drinks. For some reason the 6 day is about $50 cheaper than the 4 day. Love those casino offers - that's all we have taken for years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_e_short Posted August 17, 2021 #8 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Yep. Booked a 12 day Europe cruise for Summer 2022. Also booked Freedom out of Miami for December but might switch to Long Beach. Awesome deals, now just wish it wasnt' so hard for a Canadian to cruise 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnival is all about their casino pax. Feeling left out. It does make me feel like I'm not carnivals target or wanted. Good thing rcl is making it up with the best ever prices for solos I've ever seen. ..and I thought I already had good solo prices. Now im wishing I didnt book breeze. Rcl treating me better. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just spend some time in the casino and hopefully your Baltimore offer for November/December will be waiting when you return home! Let's all hope. 😁 🏴☠️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejnsb Posted August 17, 2021 #16 Share Posted August 17, 2021 We booked this deal for the 14 day transatlantic Tampa to Barcelona in April. About $400 each for tips, taxes and port fees. We can't stay home for that. We also sail Saturday on the Horizon 8 day southern Caribbean, this one slightly more $240 each plus taxes and tips but still a great deal. Balconies both times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The promo i got was for "select sailings up to 5 nights" yet when I scrolled to the bottom, it was there. I booked it just to see if it was legit....it was. 13 nighter for $453 and some change for 2 people plus drinks on us, and $200 OBC. It's an interior, but for the price i'm good with that Edited August 17, 2021 by pogoism9 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinMama2003 Posted August 17, 2021 #20 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Yep, we got the casino offers too, but already have 3 cruises booked before the end of the yr. Trust me though, i am trying to figure out a way to squeeeeeze one of these offers in 😁 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christyran1228 Posted August 17, 2021 #21 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I get my nephew's offers in my email ... he got one, I did not. I definitely would have done it. We could have booked a lido balcony on the Breeze for a 4-day trip to Cozumel for $397 total over my husband's birthday. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moviela Posted August 17, 2021 #23 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I think the offers have simmered down a bit. A few months ago I got free balconies, hundreds of free play, drinks everywhere, free port parking, and an excursion, cookies and gifts. So I booked ten including Alaska, Panama Canal, Hawaii, Sailabration, New Year's Eve, and a back to back on Mardi Gras to East & West Caribbean. 90 days on the water for an average $32/day in taxes, & $26/day for gratuities, who would stay home? I also have thousands of OBC and shareowners stipend. The newest offers are rather tame inside cabins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fireresq15 Posted August 18, 2021 #24 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I never get emails for the offers but I do see them when I log in to my VIFP account. I have the $100 per person...the free Cheers..offers up to $500 obc..and a new one for $45 per person..and I only gamble around $100 total on a 7 night cruise. These offers have no rhyme or reason. Just keep checking. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
