Has anyone purchased FTTF as a gift?

[stargate fan]

Our DS and DD-I-L are sailing on Valor next year. As an anniversary gift, we'd like to buy them FTTF. How do we do this so that we pay for it and it doesn't go on their S&S account?

 

Thanks.

If you can find out their Booking Number all you would have to do is call Carnival and speak to any one of the PVPs.

yes, that is what i was going to say.. because it is listed as "shore excursion", it would have to paid for in advance..can you find out their booking number?

I bought it for my granddaughter. She booked through a TA, and he got it for her on my credit card.

Yes, as noted as long as you have the booking number. I haven't tried it will calling Carnival or Bon Voyage Dept., but I ordered it as a gift for a previous cruiser, and for all the cabin on this cruise. I had to tell them all of the gift, so they could be prepared, and know what it entailed so they would know exactly what the services were/are (for those not familiar).

Thanks, everyone. I do have their booking number.

 

They are going away this coming weekend (they won't be checking for price drops :D) so I think I'll buy it then, print out something cute, and put it in an anniversary card.

Be aware that they should reprint their boarding passes and luggage tags after you purchase the FTTF.

 

The boarding pass will have a notation that gets them out of the regular check-in/security lines and their luggage tags have a notation that will expedite their luggage.

Thanks. Their cruise is not until March and their anniversary is next week so all is good. Appreciate the advice.

I'm trying to decide if I should purchase this for my in-laws or not.

 

We are cruising together in a few weeks - we are Platinum, they are not.

 

We intend to check in at the Priority desk and then wait with them for embarkation.

 

If I understand the Platinum rules correctly, we can have them join us for our priority tender service.

 

What else would they get with FTTF?
