Evilmumrah Posted December 16, 2006 #1 Share Posted December 16, 2006 We cruise in 17 days. We had seven cabins booked with my confirmation number as a reference. I just found out that we have another cabin added to the group. We booked through (oops, I can't mention the agency) and I wonder if there would be any point to trying to have us classified as a group cruise at this late date. Can't get through to them (the TA) at the moment so if anyone has any insight, I would appreciate it. Even a little OBC would be welcome. Thanks.

serene56 Posted December 16, 2006 #2 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Are all cabins booked with the same agency?? If not too bad. Usually how groups work is you set up group space with an agent.. You alll pay the same price for cat cabins you book. If you are all booked with the same agent-- it wont hurt to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evilmumrah Posted December 16, 2006 Author #3 Share Posted December 16, 2006 We have all booked through the same agency. Guess I will have to wait until Monday to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted December 16, 2006 #4 Share Posted December 16, 2006 I'd be curious to know your outcome. Is this a sailing during New Years Eve? Not all sailings get group amenties...depends on the sailing. I am curious to know if its good for a holiday like that. If the agent cant give you onboard credit-- ask if you can have a free one hour coctail party during the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the agent cant give you onboard credit-- ask if you can have a free one hour coctail party during the week. Group space is USUALLY not available on holiday sailings. To the OP, you probably cannot get these cabins registered as a group. I just checked info on the TA Carnival site and I did not see any group space available for any 1/2/07 sailings. However, you should be able to get the value of one berth refunded to you after your sailing. This is available through individual bookings, as well as the group dept. Good luck and keep us informed.

Evilmumrah Posted December 18, 2006 Author #8 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Just talked to our TA and they said no perks to be had this late in the game. Well, it was worth a try. I didn't find out about the 8th cabin until Saturday, so its NOT MY FAULT! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if all cabins are booked through individual reservations, if you have 8 cabins crossed linked, you should be able to get the 1 for 16 tour conductor.

Randy & Carmen Posted December 19, 2006 #11 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Isn't advertising like this a no no? TAs can state they are in the business but not their name or have their City or State in their profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
