FTTF- What are my chances?

[hotpinkchica14]

I really want FTTF and my cruise leaves in 107 days. Of course it is sold out but what is my chance that one will open up. We just decided to book this cruise in the last 2 weeks. Has anyone been successful in getting a FTTF once they have been sold out?

Keep checking frequently. They may open more or some might become available from cancelations especially after final payment date. I kept a tab open to FTTF in my browser and just refreshed 3-4 times a day to get all 8 of ours.

We booked our cruise in July (about 90 days out) and FTTF was sold out. Within a week a few had opened up (which I snatched up) then went sold out again and then two more open and finally it has been sold out since mid Aug. I would say there is a chance, but you have to continue to look. Hope it works out.

 

Happy sailing

Our cruise has had 3 seperate releases for FTTF and we sail in 12 days. Be patient and watch constantly, you will get it!

Send an email to shoreexcursions@carnival.com with your booking number. I also added ship and sail date but you probably wouldn't need to. This is the email I got!

 

Good news!!

 

A handful of additional space for your sailing is in process of being added for this date... should be available in about 2 minutes....

 

Please act fast, as these too will quickly sell out again. ☺

 

 

 

Wishing you a wonderful cruise,

We are cruising over thanksgiving and were told there were too many platinum and diamonds therefore no more would be released. But I kept watching, several times a day, and they did release a few. I got ours but have not seen them release anymore. So be vigilant about checking several times a day and hopefully you will get lucky.

20 FTTF spots opened for the cruise I am doing about a month out. They were again sold out in a few hours time. Keep checking.

Thank you so much everyone for the information. I will definitely keep on top of it. I have a 5 and 2 year old and I feel like this would help with them.

I don't know if time of day matters, but it I bought ours at 5:00 am one morning.

When do the first FTTFs become available? I'm thinking about booking the Pride for 2016 when the itineraries come out this spring. Wondering if they open up right away.

Can you sign up for FTTF online?

I've been trying to purchase it for a few weeks for my son, who is cruising with us in December (New Years Eve), and it's been sold out for the Dream. I check several times and day, and was just now able to purchase it, and when I added it to the cart it said only 5 left. I would just keep checking every day!

It will be available for purchase under your departure port.

Just purchased it for my cruise! Besides early embarking and being able to go right to my room, any other perks?

I bought my cruise and FTTF 88 days from sailing
