Carnival Cruise Genie

Seems like I won't get a price drop after several months. Goes to show maybe don't pay rock bottom prices up front? Haha

It's your obligation to notify Carnival regarding price drops. They don't watch it for you. A travel agent should watch for you but you still have to watch or you will never know for sure that they are looking out for you. I prefer booking directly through Carnival. I then watch it through the carnival cruise Genie and by checking myself. Although it can be a pain I have found it to be worthwhile

Thanks for the heads up about this site, I hadn't heard of it before and I spend many days searching for lower fares. It's a real time saver :)

i registered with cruise genie about a month ago and found an $80 price drop last night on my cruise. i still haven't gotten an email from cruise genie.....:rolleyes::confused:

[jeffsig]

Quick tip. Once you get a price drop take a screen shot and send in the request form ASAP. The $30 drop went back up a couple of days later luckily I already had the o.b.c. approved.

I got my first price drop 2 days ago! Carnival Cruise Genie did email me this, and I called my TA, she saw the drop and took care of it immediately. I received a new invoice within 15 minutes of the phone call showing the OBC! So happy even though it was only $20 pp.

Great job Talli.

I just signed up for this, It took a minute for me to figure out how to watch a cruise, but I got it. Now I will cross my fingers to see what happens.....

Maybe this year for Alaska but last year we received a $600.00 per person price drop for our cruise plus we were all upgraded to balcony cabins.

Be patient with it my drops didn't start coming until we were three months out. I still check a couple times a week my self but both drops I got were when the carnival cruise Genie emailed me. Good luck.

[jeffsig]

Any chance you will be adding other cruise lines?

[jeffsig]

Ok thanks. The page with the newest drops would be helpful. I could see myself checking it to look for bargains for my next cruise.

I just set up the cruise Genie to watch a couple of cruises I'm interested in. I'm not ready to book yet but I'll be ready if and when the price drops. :D

[Ghsthunter]

It works hurray! I was so thrilled to find the email when I came home from work. Never thought the price would drop over 6 months before the cruise. Thank you, thank you.

[im4golf]

New to Carnival, not sure what to do if my cruise does drop. I'm registered with Cruise Genie for upcoming cruises. If I do get a price job (please, oh please!), do I contact my pvp at carnival? One fare is paid in full and the other is tentative, but we have a deposit in. Didn't book an ES. Thanks. :)

Hi I'm watching the carnival fantasy Sept 18th and the price just dropped 50 a person on an interior cabin if anybody is interested. Thank you carnivalcruisegenie.com

[MamaParrotHead]

Scott, thanks for setting up the site and sharing so generously.

 

I wondered if it was possible to watch military rates as well as past guest and 55+? I have a website URL you could use to watch them, if you're interested and it's possible. Contact me in email below.

http://Http://www.carnivalcruisegenie.com is the one that checks your price hourly and works for me.

[jeffsig]

If anybody's interested I'm also watching the elation's 10/20/10 cruise and it just dropped to $229 a person for an interior room which is pretty cheap.

Scott - thanks for working up such a great site. Very user friendly - this coming from a computer illiterate. Haven't hit any drops yet, but I am patiently waiting!:D

[smd1234]

I recieved the notification from Cruise Genie about 8 hours after I noticed the price drop on my cruise. It does work!
