chrislaurn Posted September 22, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I got an email for "Rooms for $25". Some of the dates are showing interior rooms for $10 pp our of NOLA on the Glory. Dates are in the next few weeks. If I could go, I'd jump on this in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrislaurn Posted September 22, 2021 Author #3 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Fair point. My point was they are actually showing for LESS than $25. When you take it to check-out it says "free interior room". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish carnival would not pick and choose and give rates fairly to everyone. Makes me mad tbh to read posts like this where I dont get the same offer. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csm5986142 Posted September 22, 2021 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2021 We also got this offer (it's a players club offer) and I confirmed, ours was $10 each plus taxes/port fees ($10 + $10 + 184 = $204 total for a 5 day cruise out of Galveston). I so wish we could book it, but we both work full time and only have so much vacation time. Plus, not living near a port, we have to consider air fare expenses also. This particular deal is good through December, so I'm jealous of all the retired people/people who live near ports, who can take advantage of these deals! 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting. Mine says its a VIFP offer. We're not player's club people as we don't really gamble. And I agree - work and kids are getting in the way of my cheap vacations! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salem615 Posted September 22, 2021 #7 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I never get these deals but my husband does. He just got that $25 deal too. I really wish we could go. We both work in healthcare so it is really a pain to try and get time off right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking my is being booked on breeze. They dont want me to price match to a much lower price for a better cabin.

I'm willing to wait on a last-minute offer that works with my schedule for either the Glory or the Valor since I only live 5 minutes from port. NYE and all my 2022 cruises are booked on other lines. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not Players Club. She didn’t step foot in the casino on the one and only cruise she has been on. Hers was just a VIFP offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister who has 26 days got a bunch of amazing offers. (4 day cruise $400 total with $500 OBC) My friend with 4 days got several really good ones too. ($100 pp for an inside with $200 OBC , $25 rooms etc) I have 44 days and have gotten run of the mill offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone with a lot of cruise days, OR who hasn't sailed on Carnival in a while, might be better pickins' than someone who cruises more often or more recently.

Tiger0613 Posted September 23, 2021 #15 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) My mom has been on 8 cruises totaling 46 days(6/02, 5/08, 2/16, 12/16, 5/17, 1/18, 1/18, 2/19). I have been on 11 cruises totaling 59 days(6/02, 2/16, 8/16, 12/16, 2/17, 5/17, 1/18, 1/18, 2/19, 12/19, 12/19). I have 6 cruises booked, and the first two are solo. My mom will be with me on the other four. I go to the casino on every cruise for a couple hours on the last night. My mom has never booked or paid for a cruise in her life and has only been in the casino once or twice for a few minutes. So naturally she gets actual offers, while I get nothing. This has been happening since at least February 2016. The only thing I have going for me is Carnival hasn't been charging a solo supplement lately on select cruises if sailing in a 1A cabin.

Today's Deals list is headed "VIFP Offers," but right below that mine clearly says, "Players Club Offer," for several offers in my list. Including the $25/up cabins which actually start at $10pp. "Free Cabin" offer, etc. The casino is behind all these offers trying to get people on the ships in off peak season.

I don’t gamble but have the free cabin and cruises starting at $10 offers as well. Are you suggesting that the casino is targeting non gamblers as well?

Well yeah, if your offer is from the Players Club. I posted to firefly to book because it was listed under my VIFP deals. Upon a closer look I saw that they were actually casino offers and she isn't getting the same offers. At these rates, $10/25pp, it is obvious they just wanna fill some cabins and hope we spread around some money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still hasnt helped. My welcome home offer is worse than regular sales. I think they think people booked with high loyalty pts are hooked and they dont need to tempt us. Still have halloween 10 days booked. After that we will see if they offer something to get me to book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bstel Posted September 23, 2021 #20 Share Posted September 23, 2021 (edited) $25/pppd is also being offered out of Baltimore on the Pride for Sep/Oct 2021. I have this offer through Players Club and my wife has a similar offer under VIFP (she doesn't gamble). Also have an offer for interior room for $100/pp for 7 day cruise with $200 OBC.

GeoHack Posted September 24, 2021 #21 Share Posted September 24, 2021 As a data point for those of you with these crazy $25pp offers do you: 1. Gamble 2. Currently have a cruise booked for this year? 3. If you don't have a cruise booked this year do you have one booked? There are 5 in my family who all have 40+ days and we got nothing, but we do already have a November and a December cruise booked and I was wondering if you may not get the offer if already booked this year?

I have all the great offers; however, DW has none. The third Guest rate is a killer for Christmas cruises, for DS. You could treat another couple to a free cruise if you and wife each book an offer and switch guests onboard. Booking 2 cabins would be fantastic if my wife could get a great VIFP offer.

ray98 Posted September 26, 2021 #24 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I received the offers and have not set foot in a casino for the last 3 cruises. We did just take a cruise in August. These prices are making it tempting to book another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
