hpugirl27 Posted July 21, 2015 #27 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Wow, Congratulations! Isn't it amazing how you guys were just talking about leaving out of a different port and for your anniversary....and then that was one you could pick! Must have happened for a reason! Congrats again!! Do you have to actually answer the phone to get these free cruises? I wonder if they would leave you a message or just move on to the next person on the list?

springs741 Posted July 21, 2015 #29 Share Posted July 21, 2015 While I am truly happy for OP but I wonder if Carnival has any idea how insulting to others that are loyal customers and don’t get offers. Hubby and I first sailed Carnival in 2011. Since that time we have sailed 10 times. Twice we have covered the cost for family cruise one of which was Alaska. So in less than 4 years we have paid for 12 balcony rooms and 3 insides. I do get premier casino offers but that is thru players club not Carnival. I haven’t even got an offer for an upgrade. I think it might be time to explore other options as I am not seeing much reason to remain loyal to Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterMason Posted July 21, 2015 #33 Share Posted July 21, 2015 When we got our free cruise last year we got the best available cabin- a deck 11 balcony on the Breeze 8 night. We would have declined if it was for an inside cabin. Wow. Just. Wow. Really? It must be nice to be so elite that one can turn down a free cruise based on the cabin category. I bet you return holiday gifts if they didn't come from the "right" store. If I ever reach that level of elitism, somebody please shoot me. _________________________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCHARGE Posted July 21, 2015 #34 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Congrats to you both, and enjoy your Anniversary cruise! Like you, I would not care what kind of cabin it was, because you will be eating the same foods, enjoying the same Lido deck, seeing the same shows, clubs, islands, etc. they could throw me in a linen closet if it were free! :D my cabin never affected my ability to have a great time. I love it, and I'm so happy for you both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oppalopa Posted July 21, 2015 #35 Share Posted July 21, 2015 For a free cruise! I almost died, I still cant believe it. My PVP said please dont pass out on me you gotta breathe lol. All we have to do is pay $50 per person for deposit which we get back as onboard credit and pay the taxes/port fees. Life couldnt be any sweeter today. I am happy for you. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlrm Posted July 21, 2015 #37 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Thats wonderful! A balcony would have been great to upgrade to but guess it does depend on ship and date. Hope you enjoy your cruise! Thanks, you too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranysT Posted July 21, 2015 #38 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Congratulations OP, a great deal. Have a wonderful time. I'm getting ready to take my 19th cruise with Carnival, in Aug. I've never gotten any kind of offer "free" or reduced. I also spend time in the casino, 2 or 3 hrs on sea days, and every night. NADA from the casino as well. Guess Carnival knows they've got me hooked, so they don't have to send me anything to keep me sailing. Bummer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tutontow Posted July 21, 2015 #40 Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) It's on the Conquest out of Ft. Lauderdale, September 21. Which is also our anniversary!!! Im just so ecstatic. Its so weird because we normally sail out of NOLA because its closer but we had been talking about maybe sailing out of FL this time to do something different for our anniversary. So when he told me it only applies to select cruises and that was one of them I could choose from, Iwas just in shock. He said they only do free inside cabins, but he would put us on the Lido deck. I know we normally do balconies if possible, but for a free cruise I would sleep in the meat freezer. Im just happy to be on the ship! I'm with you anytime I am on a ship is just fine with me.

clambert1273 Posted July 21, 2015 #41 Share Posted July 21, 2015 The free offer I was given was called Pack & Play and was offered by the players club.

volmoma Posted July 21, 2015 #43 Share Posted July 21, 2015 When we used to go to Vegas all the time we got free rooms, etc. I would tell people, not free, we paid for these rooms last year...LOL Never the less, congrats!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny I remember on our cruise back in April sitting at a poker table when the pit boss brought another gentleman a card with a free cruise offer. We were all excited for him but also wondering what kind of money we had to spend to get an offer like that. Guess I mustve somehow met their goal of money lost lol!

Thanks! it really is just so weird. I asked my PVP and he said everyday they do get a random list of people to call. He said that they will leave a message when they call but that he cant promise the offer will still be available when you call back, I guess they must move on to next person. But as long as the offer lasts it will show up online in your offers as well. We are so excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuiteTraveler Posted July 21, 2015 #50 Share Posted July 21, 2015 I always wonder if how much I spend in the casino has anything to do with it because I get casino offers among others all the time lol. Yes your points in the casino CAN cause you to get a free cruise. I've got a free cruise from my casino play on Carnival Magic coming up in October on the Breeze! Can't wait and so very grateful to Carnival's casino! At any rate, have a wonderful cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
