tallnthensome Posted April 5, 2022 #2 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I will admit that the prices for the 50th promo and those who got it saved a lot of money. I know I did. In today's economy when I can sail a family of four on a brand new ship ( Jubilee ) in the summer in an extended balcony for a week for $1700 it's a good thing and rare anymore. It appears many took advantage of this 48 sale . A real good sale for once with low deposits. Normally Carnival is my last choice but I'll admit their pricing and MSC are far far better than the others not bames. Thousands in differences .... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeresaJ Posted April 5, 2022 #3 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Makes sense. I hadn't planned on booking a cruise anytime soon but then Carnival emailed me all sorts of offers that were too good to pass up. I booked 4 cruises in the last several weeks.😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VERY good deals!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdr69 Posted April 5, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 5, 2022 My offers are predominately for Australia. Havent seen one of these "you only turn 50 once" deals. That being said im pretty well booked up for the next 2 years of cruising on Carnival lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bamaone Posted April 5, 2022 #6 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Keep up the Carnival booking! I rarely think cruise lines are a good investment other than for OBC but with CCL stock being so low recently I had to load up on some extra. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierpop Posted April 5, 2022 #7 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I can see why. I’ve never had the offers I have right now. Many of them $100 pp for an interior cabin. I’m running out of weeks to be able to cruise at the $100 level. It’s weird because it’s a casino offer but the casino cash isn’t that high compared to others. But not complaining. Doubt that continues so loading up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHARTWICK Posted April 5, 2022 #8 Share Posted April 5, 2022 We also scored big time on two Jubilee sailings - even our PVP was stunned at the great deal we booked! Woo hoo!!! 🤑 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted April 5, 2022 #9 Share Posted April 5, 2022 I'm hoping for another as I didnt get deals, though it said I had the offer. ..and couldnt call and try booking direct. Well I got 2 jubilee dates in nov and one of those disappeared. .. .. next time. They would have had one more, probably jubilee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a guy took the penalty and cancelled to save 750. He couldnt get the price drop without cancelling and rebooking. The purpose of the sale was to get new bookings, not price reductions so agree it should be limited to new bookings. I'm sure some got price reductions and fees waived, but not all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mysticks1 Posted April 6, 2022 #14 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I actually was in the process of booking with a PVP - had an extended balcony cabin on the Spirit held and was to call back the next day to give them CC#'s to complete the booking. When I called to do that she said wait, there is a new promotion out, let me see what that rate does to your booking. I was able to move from the balcony cabin I had reserved to a wrap around Vista Suite balcony for LESS money. I paid less than $1600 for 2 for a 6 day cruise and the same thing right now is almost $3,000 so great savings for me on that deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted April 6, 2022 #15 Share Posted April 6, 2022 Who is surprised if the prices are cut in half everyone rushed to book. We know why sales soared and then carnival used it as a promotion ..hey we just had our best ever week lol. Stock went up on the news. Had I not been cruising last week I'd have booked! But it's funny now carnival is acting like hey look at this. .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renza Posted April 9, 2022 #17 Share Posted April 9, 2022 After many carnival cruises I said I will not go back after my cruise in September. I have since been loyal to royal but when you get a rate of $1500 for 2 in a balcony for 8 nights I had to book. I truly hate how carnival packs people in with very little space.

Rare Ferry_Watcher Posted April 9, 2022 #18 Share Posted April 9, 2022 For folks that made a spur-of-the-moment purchase of a cruise: Please make sure that you have the correct travel documents in hand for your cruise. For US citizens, either a passport or a gov't issued birth certificate (not a hospital birth certificate, often times with foot prints). I know that you are excited about your cruise, but please start getting these documents together now. There is nothing worst than being denied boarding because you didn't have the needed proof of citizenship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwrestler171 Posted April 9, 2022 #19 Share Posted April 9, 2022 If it was a normal priced week, I would be amazed, however, I was able to get 2 Havana cabins(1-interior and 1 cabana) on an 8 night So Caribbean cruise for the same price as a 7 day Western caribbean cruise on an older ship with regular rooms.
