Lulley766 Posted June 6, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2012 We were Carnival cruisers years ago when my son was small for Camp Carnival. As he grew, so did our choices. We experienced a number of other lines in the following years. Now we will be travelling with another couple who has decided on a Nov. TA on Carnival. I have been following the pricing on the cruise (even the early savers seems high to me) and wondering, if and when Carnival has sales, or price reductions. Their pricing seems to only bounce $40 up and $40 down. Given the current economic situation in Europe, and that coupled with the outrageous airline prices, I find it hard to believe that the ship is well booked for such a November cruise. I also noticed that not many of the major cruise consolidators promote Carnival the way they do some of the others such as NCL, or RCCL. Could someone with experience, knowledge, or whatever, clue me in as to how the Carnival regime operates it's pricing structure and sales events? I'm just trying to get up to speed on these issues. Many thanks for your future responses. Lulley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alliezona09 Posted June 6, 2012 #3 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Brand new ship = more $$ Pricing all depends on how the ship is selling~~ and a brand new ship always has tons of interest! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CENTEX CRUISER Posted June 6, 2012 #4 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Early Saver will most always give you the best price..It is fine for those of us that understand it's rules. I like the price protection up until 2 days of sailing, which is the only way to get this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lulley766 Posted June 6, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted June 6, 2012 It was not my intent to offend any Europeans. If I did, I apologize. It's not like the picture is totally rosy in the US either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
