Fall occupancy numbers?

[havanadaydreaming]

Anyone sailing currently/recently that can report occupancy percentages?  

 

Im on the conquest next week with a fare around $25/day pp.  Plus taxes and fees. (But $125 obc/day for cabin)

 

Makes me wonder if ship will be crowded...or not.  Thoughts?

Sailed on Liberty last month, and it felt like the ship was booked at 200% capacity. (I know, I know - not really.) Insanely crowded. YMMV.

Each cruise will vary but you can go to carnival.com and do a mock booking to see how many cabins are available.  Just note if there are 10 cabins shown for a particular category there are likely more than 10 cabins are available….carnival just limits the results to 10 for each category

Just got off Vista and felt it was full.

Wr cruised on the Panorama last week for fall break and were told we were close to capacity.

Good suggestion.  I check and I see that my cruise isn't showing up?  Our sail date is 10/29/22 on the Mardi Gras.  I thought maybe it was just so close to the sail date that they are no longer selling cabins.  But - I do see shorter trips available under the 14 day mark - so that's not it.  I'm guessing this is a good indication that my cruise is sold out - right? ☹️

Carnival ran some incredible deals on fall sailings, so occupancy will be high.  If your cruise isn’t listed as available for sale, it’s probably sold out.

The ships will be at 100% capacity or more.

We just got off the Panarama yesterday and had almost 4,700 passengers. Double occupancy is right about 4,000 so it was very full.

Just off a b2b on Elation. It was too full. Boarding Paradise tomorrow, hoping for a little more space.

Sailing on the Horizon on 10/29/22 as part of a big group, and we’ve got late comers desperately trying to join the cruise but can’t as the ship is completely sold out.  I’m anticipating a very crowded ship, and hope will not take too long to get a drink at the bars.

Did a B2B over Labor Day on the Mardi Gras with 6000 and 5700 passengers.   Getting a drink at the bars during the day was never too long of a wait because there are so many bars to choose from for day time drinking.  Now, in the evening you could have a wait getting a seat at the Alchemy Bar.

25 pp? that's an insanely low rate...even my "free" cruises weren't that low

Carnival has been pushing 100%+ capacity since March at least. Depending on which announcement was correct we had 5500 or 5900 on the Mardi Gras in March so that would be 100%+. That's pretty much the goal for Carnival at this time so the days of 'quiet ships' are pretty much over with the Carnival brand. 🙂

Just got off the Mardi Gras and it was a sold out cruise - People were posting on FB asking if anyone would be cancelling as they were looking for rooms.  Found out it was fall break for many of the southern states and it was also an elite casino cruise.  While the ship was full (and sometimes it did feel like it), the wait for most things wasn't too bad - even walked by the popular bars many times and there would either be a seat or enough space to walk up to order.  I imagine this is also due to ship layout as I've been on some other ships at less than full capacity and they felt much more crowded.

Between the cheap deals still being offered and those still using up FCC's it will likely be a busy fall.
