RWolver672 Posted February 24, 2018 #26 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I purchased this for our first carnival cruise sailing mid-March. Do we not get an assigned boarding time with FTTF? Just show up early? Thanks and enjoy!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk With FTTF, you still have to pick a check in time under Manage My Cruise. Even though you have to choose a time, with FTTF you can show up as soon as they open the doors of the terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseMomTX Posted February 24, 2018 Author #27 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Yes definitely check and keep checking for fog delays. We had friends that sailed this past Sunday out of Galveston and did not make it on the ship until 8 pm. Their ship didn’t leave Galveston until after 10pm due to the previous cruise being severely fog delayed. Same thing when you return, fog delays may prevent the ship from entering port until it lifts. It has been really bad the last few weeks. If you are not driving, make sure that whoever is picking you up knows if there is a delay so they are not there waiting for you. Have fun !

Burtonair01 Posted February 25, 2018 #28 Share Posted February 25, 2018 We sail this December, FTTF says it is sold out, so what I'm reading here is that there is a possibility I can still get it? I need to keep checking daily to see if it opens back up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to keep checking daily to see if it opens back up? Yes. I have had the best luck checking around final payment date, and checking early in the morning.

Quilcruisers Posted February 27, 2018 #31 Share Posted February 27, 2018 How do we check for fog delays? I know you are already sailing but future reference you can view webcams in the port you want to see. If you signed up for text alerts they will text you if you need to come later.

Mel2421 Posted February 27, 2018 #32 Share Posted February 27, 2018 What is FTTF? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNJCruisers Posted February 27, 2018 #33 Share Posted February 27, 2018 What is FTTF? Thanks Stands for Faster To The Fun. It's a one time cost of 69.00 per cabin that allows all occupants certain perks. You get to embark onto the ship after diamond and platinum passengers and before everyone else. You also get your bags delivered to your cabin first, a dedicated roped off line at customer service, priority disembarkation and priority embarkation at any tender ports.

pspercy Posted February 28, 2018 #34 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Is there a time frame when this opens up for a sailing? We don't sail until January 2019. I booked New Year's Eve on Valor about ten days ago, FTTF was available then too :D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just checked for my cruise, and it is $79.95. It is in October of this year. Not sure if there was an increase, but wanted to pass along what I was seeing. 6&8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't pay much attention to it since I earned Platinum status back in 2009 and letting people pay money for perks I earned through taking 10 cruises sort of cheapens the status. The priority embarkation and disembarkation at tender ports and roped off line at customer service are the only real benefits, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry that you thought it was snarky that I said you should at least scan a couple of pages of responses for the answer to your question. Have a good day and happy cruising.
