I am not new to cruising, but new to Carnival. What is it? :confused: Faster to the fun, gives you priority to getting on and off the ship. Allows you to go straight to your room as soon as you board. Priority after platinum and diamond guests. Edited June 8, 2014 by nitro2448 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenMo Posted June 8, 2014 #3 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Want to squeeze every minute of fun out of your vacation? You can with our Faster to the Fun package. With this package, you get an express lane to the FUN (and yes, FASTER!). Here’s what it includes: Priority Security, Check-in and Express Boarding Bypass lines and have exclusive security screening lanes. If you arrive after general boarding has begun, you may bypass the general boarding line and board via the Faster to the Fun lane. The quicker you are on the ship, the quicker you get to hold a frosty drink. Note: Faster to the Fun package does not grant access to the Priority Check-In Lounge; furthermore, the FTTF guests will proceed on board the ship after those guests in the Priority Check-In Lounge. For guests traveling in separate stateroom, regardless of age of the guests, all staterooms must purchase the FTTF program in order for all of the cabins to board through FTTF priority check-in. First Access to Stateroom Your stateroom will be ready for you as soon as you board so you can relax or freshen up for all the fun you are about to have. Express Luggage Your luggage will be expedited to your stateroom so you can unpack and don your cruise attire first! Guest Services Quickly have any of your questions answered or requests addressed as you will have a dedicated phone and line at Guest Services. Dining Reservations Priority Main Dining Room and Specialty Restaurant reservations Tender Priority You will have priority tender from ship to shore (multiple departure times may be possible) so you can explore ashore as quickly as you want to. Debarkation Choices We are 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. Things to Remember . The FTTF price is not per person. One ticket per cabin. The $49.95 price covers all occupants of the cabin so only 1 guest needs to purchase but all occupants receive the benefits. . After purchasing FTTF package, remind guests to re-print their boarding pass and luggage tags so the Faster to Fun stamp reflects on their documents. . FTTF can only be purchased pre-cruise on Carnival.com; no al a carte services can be purchased onboard. . The embarkation process typically begins at approximately 11:00am. FTTF guests may arrive at the terminal at that time or any time thereafter. A Few Facts on Faster to the Fun! - Platinum and Diamond VIFP Club members and Suite guests will be the only guests to have access to the Priority Check-In Lounge at embarkation, just as they are today. FTTF guests will not have this benefit, so embarkation will not be impacted in the Priority Check-In Lounge. - Similar to airlines boarding first class and then elite frequent flyers, etc., we will start with Diamond, Platinum VIFP Club members and Suite guests when embarkation begins. Then we will board FTTF guests. - The number of people who may purchase FTTF will be capacity controlled based upon the number of Platinum and Diamond VIFP Club members booked for the sailing. If a sailing has a significant number of Platinum and Diamond VIFP Club members, then we won’t plan to sell many FTTF packages. Conversely, if there are very few Platinum and Diamond VIFP Club members on a particular sailing, then we will be able to sell a few more FTTF packages. In a Nutshell: - Early embarkation and choice of early or late debarkation: FTTF gets this after Platinum and Diamond guests and those in Suites. - Priority Tender: FTTF gets this after Platinum and Diamond guests. - Early Stateroom and Express Luggage Delivery – Platinum and Diamond guests and FTTF all get this benefit. This is a new benefit for Platinum and Diamond guests! - Priority Dinner Seating – FTTF gets cleared after Platinum guests; Diamond guests are guaranteed their dining preference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not new to cruising, but new to Carnival. What is it? :confused: You purchase FTTF as an excursion through Carnival for $49.95 per cabin (not per person). Sale of FTTF is limited, so plan to purchase it early if you want it because it usually sells out. http://www.carnival.com/Activities/Excursion/101031 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
