45 Day Letter- Too Late to Use It? Cruise in 39 Days

[holstang]

Hey all,

 

I completely forgot I had a 45 day letter, and I would like to use it for our Mex. Riviera cruise, which sails in 39 days. Do you think I can still call them and use it for this cruise?

 

Thanks!

Yup! We cruise on 10/18 and I called them yesterday and it was no problem.

Love to have a gift waiting for me.:D

That is exactly the way to use it. You are not supposed to call BEFORE 45 days. But within 45 days of the cruise, you are supposed to call and get your goodie!

 

I am getting a drink card next Monday for mine!

I used mine almost 2 years later and it was fine. I don't think they're doing them anymore, so get what you can.

I have 2 and I plan on using one of them for our next cruise in November. What do they offer now for gifts does anyone know?

When I called last week it seemed to be the same list they have given before: bar coupons, soda coupons, wine, photo coupon, room decorations, etc. I don't really remember what else, I already knew I was going to take the bar coupons if they offered them again and did not offer any OBC, so once I knew that was the case I didn't pay much attention.

The bar coupons is what I will go with also. Thanks:)

What is a 45 day letter and how do I get one?:)

You probably won't get a 45 day letter now. I think they quit handing them out. I got one once when I wrote a letter to Carnival telling them the good and the bad of my cruise. It is an incentive to get you to sail again. I wrote another letter after my last cruise and I received a written response to my letter identifying specifics so I know they read it but I didn't get the normal 45 day letter offering any bon voyage gift on my next sailing.

 

To the OP, you will be able to use it but I wouldn't delay. I think your letter gives specifics on what to do and when to do it. When you call, have two options in mind cuz they will ask your first choice and second choice. I chose bar coupons as my first choice which I got and photo coupon since I planned on using both so either one would work for me.

I can't wait to use my 45 day letter. Got it from my Celebration cruise and plan on using it for our honeymoon cruise in March. Hopefully we get the bar coupons.
