laurenlou Posted July 30, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 30, 2008 What is the advantage of booking directly with Carnival vs. the travel websites? Some travel websites are cheaper and offer on board credits. Will Carnival match those deals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2PinaColadas Posted July 31, 2008 #3 Share Posted July 31, 2008 With our military discount, we get better deals through Carnival. Our PVP is great, so we always go that route. We have never had any problems. Sorry, I'm not much help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some travel agents also rebate some of their commission. Hard to believe you can get a better deal with Carnival. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTO-Girl Posted July 31, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 31, 2008 We called a online travel site last night. The initial price looked good, but of course when we called that particular balcony "price" was already sold out, but they could book us another balcony guarantee for $$$, which happen to be the same price on the Carnival website We called Carnival direct and was able to pick our own floor/cabin, which we prefer to do, for only $30 more per person. To me it was worth it. But whether it's online website or direct I will always choose the one where I can get the best deal. In this day and time I'm all about saving where I can Dianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
