barb65 Posted August 16, 2007 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I'm planning to book a single fare, inside cabin. Can anyone tell me what the rate is? I heard it's anywhere from 150-200 percent of the regular fare. :confused: barb65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brighteyes818 Posted August 16, 2007 #2 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Hi, Thats about right, you can put in 1 person and get the exact rate for any cruise, right on the line's website. Sometimes it's so close to double I check 2 people just to make sure it's at least a bit less, once I even found 2 people to be cheaper than one:eek: hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p2lockhart Posted August 16, 2007 #3 Share Posted August 16, 2007 For my cruise it is the rate for 2 passengers without the port charges and government taxes and fees for the second pax. Thank goodness we are getting the military discount so it is not quite as painful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondawgie Posted August 16, 2007 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Carnival 1As are 150% of the fare. Usually they are upgraded to 4A (inside). Anything above 1A is 200%. RCI is 150%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg1747 Posted August 16, 2007 #5 Share Posted August 16, 2007 My 1A was 130% of the basic cruise fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted August 16, 2007 #6 Share Posted August 16, 2007 RCI is 150%. Where did you get that? Iv seen 200% on RCI and then special rates as low as 130%. Never saw they had a standard 150%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moondawgie Posted August 16, 2007 #7 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Hmmm, firefly. I'm not sure. Maybe it was a special fare for my med cruise on the Splendour. However, I know for sure that I paid 150% on my 1A Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCHARGE Posted August 16, 2007 #8 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I'm planning to book a single fare, inside cabin. Can anyone tell me what the rate is? I heard it's anywhere from 150-200 percent of the regular fare. :confused: barb65 Please consider booking a 1A cabin. The 4a has 2 twin beds that can be pushed together to make 1 bed. Many 1As have 1 twin bed. The upside is that there is actually more floor space without 2 beds. Why pay more to have a 4a? You can even pick the 1a cabin you would like. 150% sounds a lot better than 200%. My 1a was just enough room for me when I took my first cruise on the Paradise.

sw6416 Posted August 16, 2007 #9 Share Posted August 16, 2007 I got a single 1A once on the Holiday was even a oceanview aft U212 I believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlorenceItaly Posted August 16, 2007 #10 Share Posted August 16, 2007 My upcoming(Elation) 1A is just under 130%. I'm traveling solo so a 1A is fine for me. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darlipoo Posted August 17, 2007 #12 Share Posted August 17, 2007 My upcoming(Elation) 1A is just under 130%. I'm traveling solo so a 1A is fine for me. Marie I didn't know what the "regular" price of a 1a was when I booked mine for the Elation. Mine was $389.00 before taxes and such and I am thrilled to death. I saw an ad for the 5 day "from $299.00" so I imagine that is a 1a rate per person with 2 to a cabin. I too am going solo. You'll have to let me know if you actually get a 1a or you get upgraded a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlorenceItaly Posted August 17, 2007 #13 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Darlipoo--Remember last week I was assigned a 4A room with a room number? Well, since I went for this price drop($45) I am back in the 1A pool, and no room number yet. I was fine with going back to the 1A pool because my 4A was on the Riviera deck, so I couldn't get any lower, lol. I wouldn't be surprised if I am assigned the same room as before. My total price with taxes, etc. is $421, solo. I'll let you know what I end up with. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozeman Posted August 17, 2007 #14 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Seems to be some 1A bargains on Holiday and Fantasy. I was looking for myself this week. Less than 150%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIZZ_K Posted August 17, 2007 #16 Share Posted August 17, 2007 My 6D OV cabin on Empress deck on my upcoming cruise cost me $379.00 with the tax and port fees it came to $421.00 I booked in March using the dp3 past guest code, looking at it recently if I were to use the new dp7 code it would cost $659.00 for a 6D OV on the same deck go figure:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra36 Posted August 17, 2007 #17 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Looks like some of the solo cruisers got decent rates, however, as a point of reference it might be helpful to say how long the cruise was for. It appears that most were for 4 or 5 days but if someone did not know that and was looking at a 7 day cruise they may be disappointed not to find such low fares.

I am assigned another 4A on the Main deck, and the room is in a better location. Also, one deck up. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

letscruisegd Posted August 17, 2007 #23 Share Posted August 17, 2007 I got an excellent solo rate for a 4 day on the Paradise. I got a 1A for a total of $285. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra36 Posted August 17, 2007 #24 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Looks like everyone is doing OK with the single fares. I have only done 7 day cruises but I have averaged between $75-$80 per day for 1A's with either porthole or picture window cabins that I chose. I do cruise with other lines but the bang for the buck on Carnival is hard to beat going solo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only cruised solo on HAL(which I love), so this will be my first solo on the "Fun Ship". I am a bit nervous, but I know it will be fine.
