Floating Lanai Posted September 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Has anyone been able to grab FTTF within a month of sailing? I know it is random and unpredictable. I moved our sailing from the 9/9 due to Irma to Oct and wanted to know if anyone else has grabbed FTTF within a month of sailing. I will most likely keep looking daily just in case.

crooooze Posted September 18, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I have. Keep checking. If someone cancels their FTTF, it becomes available for the next lucky person. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sumonami Posted September 18, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I just booked a cruise today which sails on Thursday... FTTF was available! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butterbean1000 Posted September 18, 2017 #5 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I usually nab FFTF a few weeks before sailing. Keep checking a couple times a day. They usually open it up after they have an idea of how many plats/diamonds are sailing. Sent from my SM-G950U using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floating Lanai Posted September 18, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Thanks everyone, I do plan to keep looking. I have grabbed it before randomly but never this close to sailing but good to see others have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainNappin Posted September 18, 2017 #7 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Is it really limited? I haven't ever seen it when it did not say that there were at least 10 available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candigirl41 Posted September 18, 2017 #8 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Is it really limited? I haven't ever seen it when it did not say that there were at least 10 available. They do limit the number they will sell based on how many Diamond/Platinum members are cruising. Candi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vamartha Posted September 18, 2017 #9 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I personally have had to cancel a cruise on Tuesday that was sailing on Saturday. I had FTTF and I'm assuming that someone was able to buy it. I always keep checking up to the very last second and I don't just check once or twice a day but many times. I got it a few weeks ago for a cruise that I'd been checking daily for months. It pays to keep checking and checking and checking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtripli Posted September 18, 2017 #10 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I snagged ours with 40 days to go. I kept checking every day as well and finally it was available.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floating Lanai Posted September 21, 2017 Author #16 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Well I held my breath for a few days. I check one last time before heading to bed, as the page loaded I could see the language behind the site, it was loading oddly. I knew something was different, once it finally loaded it showed avalaible. I quickly bought it, checked again right after and they are sold out. Someone mustve cancelled if it were literally just this one opened up. 31 days out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boston Mom Posted September 22, 2017 #18 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Too funny because I also got it for our August cruise 31 days out, after checking literally multiple times every day. I wonder if there is a pattern to that 31 days - like that is when they look at how many Diamond and Platinum they have booked and decide at that timeframe how many more FTTF to release. We found it well worth it. Check in was a breeze, and we walked right onto our tender without having any wait at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudyard Posted September 22, 2017 #19 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Can't hurt to keep trying. We had some friends decide to join us on a cruise a couple of years ago. We had FTTF because we booked months ahead of them. They booked about two months out and kept checking to try and get it. They managed to get FTTF three weeks before we sailed.
