Our First Cruise Is 2/6/2012 AND.......

[torchd]

Haven't even sailed our first trip yet (Grand Turks / HMC / Nassau) and the g/f and I already looking at booking our next cruise for March 2013

 

It's another Eastern Carribean Cruise: St. Thomas, USVI / Barbados / St. Lucia, WI / St. Kitts and Nevis, WI / St. Maarten, NA

 

 

Lot more expensive, but a lot further away from reality :)

If you can, go for it!

 

As we've seen this week life can take unexpected twists and turns.

 

We are going further south too!

 

Doing the countdown!

Your second cruise is a great itinerary.

[torchd]

Sorry this is a Southern Carriben cruise.. My mistake

[cdamion]

Those Southern Caribbean itineraries are great.

 

Doing the same thing. Have Splendor in March and then Brilliance of the Seas Southern Caribbean in 2013 - will probably push it back to spring though.

Yes I cannot wait... It is expensive, we are going to try to make it work

 

Side note: How did you get the ships that you're sailing on into your sig?

[torchd]

Ahh I figured it out

[Normal 1]

Torchd - If you book your next cruise while your on this year's cruise.... there are generally some 'perks' (on board credit, etc...) Also, some ships sell 'future cruise certificates' (FCC). These are $100 each. You buy one (or more). They are good for 2 years and refundable.

 

When you decide on a cruise, you book and pay your deposit. Then submit an on-line form to have the $100 FCC applied to your balance. Depending on the length of the cruise, you 'get' OBC up to $200 (12+ days = $200, 6-9 days = $100, 3-5 days = $50).

 

These are a good deal if you know you will be cruising Carnival again. Not sold on all ships. See if there is a Future Cruise desk on your ship and see what they have to offer!

 

Enjoy!!! Prepare for your new addiction!

Thank you for the info about that. How would I be able to read more aobut it? We are really thinking of doing this cruise. And any perks would be great!

Enter FCC in search box here on CC and you should find all the info you need. There is a desk on ships where they offer CCL credit cards and FCCs. On Inspiration it was located in a high traffic area near the casino and lounges.

I completely understand that statement! LOL Did the exact same thing before our Dream cruise.

Leaving on our second Sunday. Third is all but booked (going to get an FCC first). And looking at the third, just waiting on the June 2013 schedule to come out.

Is the OBC per stateroom or person?
