htkodiak Posted February 3, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Or is anyone else having trouble navigating the new booking engine on the Carnival website ? We usually book B2B and unless I'm doing it wrong you can't compare cruises.When we book it is different cruise itinerary's for each leg.I do use a PVP but I like to know what I want before I call.

rekarlu Posted February 3, 2016 #3 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) I do NOT like the functionality of the new Carnival website, either. ESPECIALLY the booking process! Edited February 3, 2016 by rekarlu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Dutch Girl Posted February 3, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Just went to the site.... I could easily see the dates from, say, Miami, and the itineraries for back to back weeks. I'm using Chrome. I think the site is easy-peasy. Need a bunch of comparisons...just open a new tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally didn't like the old website. People just have to get used to navigating this new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfb4cruzing Posted February 3, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I was setting up all the online checkin stuff yesterday and it's a pain in the butt. At least it didn't kick me out and eventually completed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silvercrikhix Posted February 3, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I found the new cruise search very different and did not like it at all. And agree, very hard to compare. Hmmmmmmm...... It wasn't broke, so why in the he** did they "fix" it. It's not like there were problems the way it was. Sheeeezzzz....apparently the IT dept has too much time on their hands.

Mary Ellen1 Posted February 3, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Glad you posted this, because I agree. I had a "Favorite" cruise set up, and now Favorites seems to be gone. :( Or, maybe I just haven't found it yet... Ugh. It requires more steps to find a cruise now.

Guest Posted February 3, 2016 #14 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yes.Cutbacks and higher prices are deterring me from booking.Especially when better cruise lines are the same price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekarlu Posted February 3, 2016 #15 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) Yes.Cutbacks and higher prices are deterring me from booking.Especially when better cruise lines are the same price. So very true............we returned home 2 days ago from a 7-day cruise on the NCL Jewel to the Mexican Riviera, we paid just under $360 each for an inside cabin, and that includes port charges/taxes/fees. Carnival was more than twice that price (for the same exact itinerary) when all was said and done!!! Edited February 3, 2016 by rekarlu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise4Music Posted February 3, 2016 #16 Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) Heald believes that is Brilliant. Another cutback? Thanks for not addressing the OP's question/comment. Things never change on good old Cruise Critic. To answer your "comment". No a new web design is NOT a cutback.

Cruise4Music Posted February 3, 2016 #17 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Yes.Cutbacks and higher prices are deterring me from booking.Especially when better cruise lines are the same price. So sorry the hear you will be leaving the Carnival boards. Happy cruising. If enough of you CC folks really leave maybe the price will drop a little for the folks who are not leaving.

Can I ask why your on the Carnival board? Of course you posted this on the NCL board? I guess I don't get it, when I come the Carnival board I want to read about Carnival, not NCL. I guess people still only come to CC to complain. Edited February 3, 2016 by Cruise4Music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sotermarler Posted February 3, 2016 #21 Share Posted February 3, 2016 I was looking at the Nov 12 2017 western Caribbean Vista cruise last week and now can't find that date. Is it only showing certain dates to fill those first? Is there a list option somewhere so I don't have to see the large pictures?
