That's two of us :) I'm Platinum. Are you as well or did you book casino rate, pay for FTTF, etc.? I ask because I'm trying to make some rhyme or reason to these changes.

 

I'm also Platinum..............I guess they didn't have all the glitches fixed before they threw the switch on the change, so to speak........

I just printed our boarding passes for the Breeze for January 21. Both the boarding passes and luggage tags have the FFTF logo AND PRIORITY in red on them. We are Diamond.

 

Set Print Action, you are good! lol, my cruise is also on January 21st (Dream), I logged out and back in hoping it would be different but my luggage tags still only show PRIORITY....no FTTF (I'm Platinum)....

I previously printed my luggage tags and they showed FFTF and PRIORITY, but after seeing this thread I went back and looked at the new tags and reprinted them, they only say PRIORITY now and no longer show your Booking number.

I am echoing others here... I just reprinted our family's documents for a cruise next month and the new boarding pass format doesn't have FTTF or Priority on them anywhere. (we paid for FTTF on both our cabins). The luggage tags also have no indication of FTTF or priority.

 

My concern isn't so much the carnival staff as it is the parking garage people in Mobile. I have read that they turn people away if you try to park before your arrival time, so I want my boarding passes to show the FTTF to prove that we have priority access and arrival time does not (should not) matter. I will be using the old boarding passes that I printed after final payment.

 

I would also be concerned about luggage. With FTTF/priority, you're supposed to get your luggage first. Without any indication of FTTF or priority, there is no way the luggage handlers will know that it is supposed to be in the priority group. So we will be using the old luggage tags that clearly show FTTF too.

 

[Edit to add:] I just tried printing the luggage tags alone, as someone previously mentioned, and they do show FTTF on the new format when printed by themselves. Sounds like their website document generator is messed up.

I just called Carnival about my boarding passes that are not showing the FTTF. The agent was readily aware of the issue and said that their IT department is working to fix it as soon as possible. She didn't have an ETA for resolution but suggested that I try reprinting them as it gets closer to the actual sail date and hopefully it will be resolved by then. She also said that if it is not fixed before sailing, to take the proof of purchase for FTTF and that will work fine at the port.

Just curious, for a non Carnival cruiser, what is FTTF?

Faster To The Fun. It's like a fast pass at amusement parks... gets you in the priority check in line, let's you board first (after weddings and diamond/platinum), lets you debark first, and a few other perks.

They have fixed them now. Mine did not show FTTF this morning and does now.

 

It would appear that for about three hours this morning it was the opposite though. My boarding passes without FTTF showed FTTF and my passes that should have had FTTF did not. This could make for some interesting boarding scenarios if people printed them while it was broken.
