Waitlisted for Cat 12

[Luluwa]

Booked on the Ecstasy 12-27-08 New Years cruise sailing in 16 days (and counting.):D

I have booked a 6E and am waitlisted for a Cat 11 or 12.

Anyone have any experience with

1. waitlists?

2. being Platinum and on a waitlist?

I may be incorrect here, but I don't believe that Carnival offers a "Waitlist" for staterooms that are currently unavailable or sold out. Your TA or PVP may be watching this for you, but I have never heard of a waitlist being offered by CCL.

RCL, Clebrity, Princess, HAL....offer this wiatlist, but CCL, does not unless they have changed recently.

Yes,

my wonderful, diligent TA is watching

and calling

and working

on my behalf for my CAT 12. :D

Thats what I thought..... it's actually not a "Waitlist" per say though. It's the luck of the draw and being in the right place at the right time when a stateroom category you are seeking opens up and if your "wonderful, diligent TA is watching" and grabs it in time ! Best of luck :cool:

Does anyone else have any experience with being "waitlisted" for a desired category? :rolleyes:

Never been on a cruise before my first will be this cruise you are wait listing for. Any pointers for a newbie you pro?

Hi momofblae,

You'll love the Ecstasy and there will be some fun things to eat, to do and to see. :p

 

Don't overpack, don't take too many shoes, take sunsecreen spf 30 or above, bring Bonine an over the counter medication for motion sickness IF you need it, bring a hair dryer if you need one they aren't in the Ecstasy cabins, also a clock if you need one.:rolleyes:

 

We have booked a category 6E oceanview but I'm believing for a category 12 suite. :D

Ecstasy Cat 12s have hair dryers in the bathrooms. ;)

Good luck. You are on a four or five night cruise and those cabins at "New Years" have been sold out for 9 months plus.......;)
