CruiseFan3035 Posted January 17, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted January 17, 2015 We did too, I was super happy as we always miss this sale. LoL. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app We called our PVP who never even told us about this sale and asked that she call us back. She never did so we booked online!

Terri0305 Posted January 17, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 17, 2015 We did too! And I didn't know about it until I did a mock booking for our anniversary trip in December, saw the total and $250 deposit....I called my husband so fast!! LoL. We also hurried and snatched up our FTTF, we invited another couple with us and they booked there's yesterday morning and we're right next to each other. We bought there FTTF, those things go fast!

Terri0305 Posted January 17, 2015 #8 Share Posted January 17, 2015 We had it for our last cruise on the Elation and loved it! They started boarding at 11:30 we were next to board after weddings, platinum, diamond and suites which it wasn't many of those and we got on the ship at 11:35. It was a 5 day cruise and though we didn't have tender ports we loved it for the fact that our room was ready and we didn't have to tote carry ons around and we got off early on the last day. Interesting to see how it plays out with us in December since we're going to Grand Cayman. For us it was totally worth it and we made it to lunch before the crowds and a few minutes after everything opened.

nissach Posted January 17, 2015 #9 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I guess because we are sailing over NYE, there are no deals to be had :(. Too bad! Last year we took advantage of the 36 hour sale in November. Went from a 4K to a balcony and got OBC! Guess I will need to keep my eyes open for one of those sales again. Likely not until late in the year again I am guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseFan3035 Posted January 17, 2015 Author #10 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I enjoy the OBC but we really got what we think is a good deal. Balcony in the Panorama deck and half off deposits. Who knows there may be some price drops or something but with limited rooms on the Panorama, it's probably not likely. Either way we are happy. Love cruising!

As long as you are happy with the price and room, that is all that matters. I am just hoping for some price drops(not likely due to time of year) or at least one sale to take advantage of. If that dos not happen, it is still OK because we will be cruising! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1girln3boys Posted January 17, 2015 #12 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I booked it also. Got a cabin on panorama deck. My PVP called me and told me about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winddawn Posted January 17, 2015 #13 Share Posted January 17, 2015 We just booked our 7 day western Caribbean. Half off deposit and managed to get a great room! Me 😊 Twenty-five cruises on Carnival for me, and one cruise on Holland America. Carnival hasn't blessed me with any appreciation for my loyalty, so I booked my next cruise on HAL with a free cruise offer from them. It is so ironic. I'm really happy though that you are happy with your Carnival offer. I hope you have a wonderful cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, it's totally crazy that Carnival gives its best deals to infrequent customers, but overlooks their most loyal customers when it comes to their best offers. Carnival doesn't reward their most loyal customers, but prefers to entice those that haven't cruised with them lately. My last Carnival cruise was my 25th Carnival cruise, and I didn't even get a thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parttimr Posted January 18, 2015 #16 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Just checked the carnival site and saw no sale for this so did a mock booking and it still came up with a full deposit. Where are you finding this sale. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabryhouse Posted January 18, 2015 #17 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I just did a mock booking in January and had full deposit required. I booked the same cruise, last week of December and the deposit was half. So I suspect you must book a cruise before the end of the year in order to get the 50% deposit.

Weeziblu Posted January 18, 2015 #19 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I booked my Aug 2015 Pride sailing on January 12 and was able to take advantage of the upgrades and half price deposit promotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzzys Posted January 18, 2015 #20 Share Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) It only has sailings up to 5 days long when I try to pull it up. Maybe because I'm in Canada? Nevermind! I was just on April. :-D Edited January 18, 2015 by Lizzzys figured it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parttimr Posted January 18, 2015 #21 Share Posted January 18, 2015 I spoke with a carnival rep and the 50% deposit is for 2015 sailings only. We were trying to book the Dream in January 2016 and it is a full deposit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
