What time do they have the simplified Fun Times available at Guest Services or the Coffee Shop? Is this something I could collect before heading off to bed for the next days activities? Or do they only put it out the next morning for that day? I love marking off what I want to do the next day.

@arxcards UPDATE - It's a known issue and Carnival are working on it. PHEWWWWW. A TA over at facey just advised. @sm9690

@arxcards Do you know anything about this? I also tried to look at booking another Luminosa cruise and it says Oh SNAP. I've paid the 6th Nov one off in full.

I booked my Splendor and Luminosa Bookings direct and had no issues selecting the cabin I wanted.

Channel Harry Potter. It's Luminooooooosa, not Luminosaaaaa. Lol.

Now that I have booked the Solo Obstructed Interior at $853 for the 6th Nov, I don't want to look at the prices because I will kick myself as they drop.

A friend (55+) booked a solo balcony the other day, haven't checked current pricing but look it up. They paid $1,070.

Did you ask BOTH Bosses?

Yeah. We'll get to see it about 20-25 years as a hand me down.

Yep friend booked this price yesterday. I'm still waiting for my FCC to be moved over.

No. Some people get offers that others don't get.

Yes Encounter on Saturday. Then Lumo in November, and Splendor for NYE. The problem I have with this Lumo 6th Nov trip is that I paid the difference between the full balance owing and my FCC balance. And they are taking their time in moving my FCC over because hubby isn't on this cruise. But that "Final Payment" balance due is due on Monday, and I won't be here.

I'm having an issue with Carnival not yet moving my FCC over to this booking because it's solo. The cancelled cruise was a family cabin. Hubby had to fill in a form but still waiting for approval. And I'm cruising on Saturday so can't chase it up while I'm away. Ggrrgghh.

Sshhhhh, or book it and come with us.

BOOK IT - that's less than what I got it for the other day as not over 55 yet ($853 solo).

Yep booked it last night. Exactly that price. Just trying to get my FCC allocated then I'm set.

Ha ha ha no you shouldn't lol. I'm happy. Yesterday a normal interior was $490 more.

Wahoooooo I just booked it. I wasn't getting the offer on the PC so I tried logging in via my phone and I just held a cabin. One of those 4K solo insides that look at the lifeboats for AUD $853. And with my FCC and $900obc it's essentially a free cruise. Yahoo.

I don't, I TRIED everything. I got my Planner and another TA to try to use this Rate Code and others that I was told about but nope not linked to my VIFP. Damnit. I want to go on this one.

Oh and I keep hearing comparisons to the Spirit/Legend. But there is one less pool and no waterworks or wterslides. Here are both deck plans for comparison. https://www.carnival.com.au/~/media/FA7048854292445B8A2DD38823D843E9.ashx https://www.carnival.com.au/-/media/4f1f5be57837446a82fd902eeb2aade2.ashx

From watching all of John H's videos of his walkies around the Carnival Luminosa in Palermo, this is what I discovered: The current Deck Plan mentions the Limelight Lounge fwd-ish on Deck 3. John said it will actually be the Punchliner Comedy Club. The Grill will have "available" a delicious burger (not Guy's branded), an addition of Meat Pies. Does available mean included or an upcharge? Pizzaria Del Capitano and Deli will be there. Botero's Donna will remain in the Atrium. Problem there is that in Australia you can't pre-book your Shore Excursions like you can in the US. So embarkation day in the Atrium is VERY crazy busy. And the Cruise Director also has large events in the Atrium. For these reasons I think the Botero will be in the way. No mention of the future of waterslides or waterworks. With one less pool than the Spirit has and no waterslides or waterworks, can you imagine a Queensland Hot Summer School Holidays heading out to the South Pacific tropics? That lido pool will be PACKED. Adults will have Serenity Deck, but kids will pack out the lido pool. https://www.carnival.com.au/-/media/4f1f5be57837446a82fd902eeb2aade2.ashx

I have been logging in heaps and even making new (very expensive NYE Carnival bookings). So my activity is very active.

What's the RATE CODE you received?

I know. I'm trying. At the moment the best I can get is an interior solo for $1,343. Then I add my FCC. I'm on the Encounter in just over a week, so when I get back, I will see what's available for the the 6th Nov Lumo then.
