Plan Now, Play Later Casino Deal Question

[DenaInWyo]

I have read the fine print, done some searching (to no avail) and so now hoping someone has booked a similar casino deal to this.  It includes "Free drinks anywhere on the ship" and I'm wondering if this includes both people in the cabin.  It doesn't really specifically say either way.  Well, kind of it does, but it's exactly the same fine print as the regular premier cruises.  It states "Qualifying VIFP member" on those too, and I know for a fact that both people in a cabin of two get free drinks in the casino.

 

Does anyone have experience with this type of offer?  Not a deal breaker either way, I'm booking it and if the free drinks are only for me, I'll let my travel companion use the $400 OBC for her drinks.  It's one hell of a deal, doesn't sail till May of 22, and SURELY by then (surely?) we'll be sailing.  Sigh..so far away.  I'm just worried these crazy good casino deals are going to be scarce once things get moving again and the mobs are beating down the doors 🙂

usually it will say for you and a guest if it's for both. You could call the carnival casino reps and ask though. There's a phone # on the mailings that Carnival sends out or just call and ask for a casino rep. Congrats on your offer!

Thank you for the response!  I'm just having a hard time thinking they'd just give it to one person in the cabin.  Your suggestion is a good one, and I'll do that tomorrow!  Ew...or maybe not.  I bet they're bombarded with all the cancellations.  

 

And thanks...damn those offers, they're reeling me in just like a juicy little fish lol

There are some great offers right now..Lets just hope we get to sail..lol..Honestly, my feeling is things will be worked out by next year.

I was pretty convinced up until a couple of weeks ago that I would not book until I started seeing them sail again.  Those offers won me over.  I hate to say this, because I'm tempting fate, but I just can't see cruising not being back by January and May of next year.  But..worst case scenario, we'll still party in NOLA for a week for the first one, and figure out something for the other one.  Not putting down more than the deposit, so it's a gamble I'm willing to take.  Honestly I'm more worried about changes in ships/particular ships not going than I am straight no sail.  

 

I'm even more worried though that those deals won't be around once they get going.  The one I'm asking about is insanely good.

Right there with you. So ready for things to go back to normal again. I do think the buffets will be more cafeteria-like with the crew serving the guests. We're totally okay with that. If vaccines are required or masks, we won't be cruising.

I too got this offer and called OCP.  The drinks everywhere is just for the person stated on the offer. If you want Cheers for the other person, you have to call.  I have gotten different answers to that one.  Keep calling until you find someone who can add it for you.

It will say in the offer.

There's two kinds of casino offers with regards to drinks. The offers that have free drinks for both will ALWAYS say for you and a companion. If it doesn't say that then it's only for the first, or CPC member who's offer you're using.

Thanks for the help everyone!
