Carnival Victory Rates

[RONNIENJ4]

Are we allowed to ask if we got a good rate without mentioning who it is from?

 

Thanks.

Compare it to other TA rates and to the rate posted on the Carnival site.

 

Then you will have the answer you seek.

Thanks, I was hoping to compare with what other passengers paid and what there thoughts are.

It really is next to impossible to compare rates with others that have booked...way too many variables...ie: when booked, promo avail etc.....you have to compare apples to apples. Prices change daily (sometimes more often:eek:), so what someone else paid has no bearing on what you did, unless you booked the same time etc.

It's sorta like buying a car; if you think you got a good deal, you did. :D

I'd like to hear it. What was your rate? What room? Let's hear the details.

[RONNIENJ4]

Balcony Cabin Category 8A

$856.00 Per Person, includes everything (ie, taxes, fees, port charges, etc.)

[KAWS]

When is your sailing?

That looks pretty good. It's always a good idea to use a website where TA's compete and you name the price. I got $1700 per person for cat. 12 suite on the Victory which is going for over $2300 on Carnival's website.

None of your business!

 

Why, of why, do people want to know this stuff?

 

If YOU think you got a good rate (you know, around or less than you were hoping to spend on your vacation), that's great.

 

It you think you didn't get a good rate, then why did you book the cruise you booked?

 

Sorry, I just hate how people hide behind the anonymity of the internet to ask rude, improper questions. Didn't your parent's teach you any manners?

 

I don't care what someone else paid. If I were to find they paid a lot less than me, I'd be unhappy and I don't want something like that to interfere with my enjoyment of my cruise. And so what if they paid more? That's their problem, not mine. I'm not going to dislocate my shoulder by patting myself on the back for getting such a sooper dooper rate, or an OBC, or an upgrade, or whatever.

 

People complain about the lack of manners by folks on a cruise. That is just as evident as shown on some of these threads. :mad:

We're going in September and booked a balcony cabin for $695 including taxes, fees, port, fuel, etc....

If you are so angry with my question, just ignore it.

It is my business if I wanted to know, not yours, ignore it.

You're saving $50 pp over what I can get by using Carnival's website.

Someone forgot their chill pill this morning. I think the KoC wanted to know if there was a way to get a better deal, or OBC. I don't think they want to know your dress size, weight or timing of your cycle.

 

That's already been discovered. :eek:

Thank you VegasMan...

As stated price depends on cruise date, cabin category, discounts you qualify for (military is the best, past cruiser, senior) and what day you book as prices do fluctuate.

 

The only real comparrison would be with same cabin category, same cruise date, same discount--check the roll call boards for others on your cruise (however, I doubt too many folks will share as much info as you did.

 

I got alot cheaper rate for an 8C balcony, but it's for a different cruise date and I had past cruiser discount. A couple going with us got a better rate than us due to military discount.

HI everyone,

 

Liz is right, it all depends . I search the prices all the time and they do vary. It also depends what time of year your going. Hurricane season they are always usually cheaper. I have gone twice in that time, both times got caught up in a Hurricane. But it was fine, the ships take good care of you. On one of them we got 2 extra nights at sea and we had a blast.

 

If you never had a balcony my tip is to save up until you can book one. They are worth the extra money, atleast for me they are. I love them, just sitting out there sipping on a drink is just amazing.

Happy Sailing....I am counting down the days.

We got balcony also for the same sailing date as you (5-17-09)for $832.00 pp all taxes etc.. Seems like we are in the same ballpark, only few dollars difference.
