Snowbath Posted February 2, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Priority Check-in with Express Boarding The quicker you board the ship, the quicker you're holding a frosty drink. Guaranteed Stateroom Your stateroom will be ready as soon as you board, so you can relax or freshen up for the fun you're about to have. Express Luggage Your luggage will be expedited to your stateroom so you can unpack and get settled in for a great vacation! Guest Services You'll have a dedicated phone number and line at Guest Services so you can quickly have your questions answered. Dining Reservations Priority Main Dining Room and Specialty Restaurant reservations. Tender Priority You will have the option to choose a priority tender from the ship to shore (multiple departure times may be possible), so you can explore ashore as quickly as you would like. Debarkation We're always sad to see you go. But when your cruise is over, you may choose an early or late disembarkation time upon arrival to your homeport.

arkjeweler Posted February 3, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted February 3, 2013 How much does it cost, and how do you order it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvtovaca Posted February 3, 2013 #4 Share Posted February 3, 2013 It is $49.95 per cabin. If your family has more than one cabin, you need to purchase it for both (or all) cabins, but not per person. If it is available on your ship/sailing, it will show up under the excursions for the embarkation day/city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondello Posted February 3, 2013 #5 Share Posted February 3, 2013 $49.95, price covers all PAX in cabin. It will be listed at the front of your excursion page on CCLs website, if available.

Someone just posted there are exceptions; if cabins are all on one S&S card or if there are minor children in the other cabin, one price ($49.95) covers all PAX in both cabins.

arkjeweler Posted February 3, 2013 Author #8 Share Posted February 3, 2013 What does FTTF stand for? Is it only for platinums, or for anyone? Is this part of the PIFP program? We are cruising out of New Orleans in Auguts and would really like to have this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondello Posted February 3, 2013 #9 Share Posted February 3, 2013 What does FTTF stand for? Is it only for platinums, or for anyone? Is this part of the PIFP program? Faster To The Fun is for people willing to pay $49.95 for some special perks, it can be purchased from the Carnival excursion page. Special perks include priority boarding after Platinum/Diamond and wedding parties; priority tendering; cabins ready upon boarding; luggage delivered early; and priority dining reservations. Platinum and Diamond do not have to pay for FTTF and get these benefits and more on ships offering FTTF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you get seated first? No, you do not get seated first, nor can you jump the line at ATD. What it means is that you have priority of dining choices (Early, Late or ATD) after Diamonds and Platinums are assigned and before everybody else.

jimboridesmtb Posted February 4, 2013 #13 Share Posted February 4, 2013 Dining ReservationsPriority Main Dining Room and Specialty Restaurant reservations. How does it affect your time dining? Do you get seated first? We purchased this for our last cruise and it didn't help with your time dining. We did get priority check in and we were able to get to our room right away. Our luggage came at about 2:30-3:00. Getting off the ship on the first tender was quicker but since 2 out of 3 booked an excursion with the ship it didn't make much of a difference. Debarkation is faster as you get a #1 tag. We chose to take our time since our flight didn't leave till 8:30 pm. So long story short, it wasn't really worth it for us. Since we stay at a hotel the night before we already have shorts on so waiting for our bags isn't a big deal. Tendering is what my husband wanted it for because he had shore excursions booked outside of the cruise line and that was a bit unorganized.
