Cruise gone!

Just checking prices for a price drop and our cruise isn't listed! Does this mean its sold out? Only 21 days out.

It means it's canceled. You should be receiving a refund within 2-3 weeks. [emoji6]

 

Kidding. It could mean that it's completely sold out, or that cabins with the capacity that you need may be sold out. Change the number of passengers to see if any cabins pop up.

Our Conquest cruise for the same date (Jan 17) has been sold out for a few weeks now. Crazy! I have no idea why that weekend is so popular. We've done many January cruises and have never seen the ship fill up so early. So much for early saver price drops :(

Our Conquest January 2016 cruise has been sold out for 6 weeks. But from time to time it pops up available at a ridiculous high price. My dad usually books his cruise that we go on every year, 4 weeks before cruise date. This is the first time it sold out this fast in all of our January cruises in the past :confused: My dad will not be going with us this time around :(

Could be because January 18 is a federal holiday (MLK day) and many people have it off so they save a day of vacation time compared to a different week.

Maybe!! Also, it's only a 6-day cruise which I guess helps for people who have travel plans to sort through.

I think our January 24th cruise on the Sunshine is also sold out, I looked and can't find it on Carnival's site.

It does seem to me that cruise demand has been outpacing supply lately! I've noticed that sail dates have been selling out sooner than normal. I hope that anyone that wants to cruise in January has already booked their cruise. I jumped on a Carnival casino offer for the federal holiday week in January when it came a while back. I agree with satxlady that is a popular time to cruise. Who doesn't want to get away to the warm Caribbean when its so cold at home??

I noticed that a few weeks before my Dec 5 cruise it was showing sold out as well. Then about a week later it popped up for a few hours then disappeared again. Exactly 2 weeks before departure I got a call from the "Upsell Fairy" and upgraded from a 4A to a 6A for $70. During that time, it showed the remaining rooms for about an hour then disappeared for good.

 

I think as it gets closer they shut down the bookings as to allow for the number of Guarantees. Then they call with their upsells and the left overs get assigned to the Guarantee rooms.

 

This is strictly based upon my own observations and is a theory on my part. I could be wrong.
