Sunnyday2010 Posted April 1, 2011 #2 Share Posted April 1, 2011 The pricing link doesn't mention a reduced deposit ? Also it says that the final payment is due April 2011, I assume that is an error? Congratulations on getting it official ! Exciting ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure hope so, anyway! ;). I'll send Laura an email and get it fixed. The link doesn't mention the reduced deposit, but I do have an email from Laura stating we do have the $25/pp deposit for 30 days. I'll find out when the reaming deposit would be due for those that take advantage of it. And with the Alaska deposit being $350/pp, it's a great way to get this cruise boomed without having to fork over a mortgage payment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunnyday2010 Posted April 2, 2011 #7 Share Posted April 2, 2011 I have a question... If you pay the $25 deposit then do you have to pay the full deposit within the 30days ? I assume the $25 is just so you have 30days to prepare for the deposit ? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TortieGal Posted April 3, 2011 #9 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Sent an email to Johna to ask about the ES rate. Pretty sure Cherie and I will be booking some sort of rate though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked ES for our VS. Don't get the onboard credit, but that's fine by me since ES us saving us almost $600! Of course, that'll pay for, what, 1 excursion for the 3 of us? :o :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeBeCruisin' Posted April 4, 2011 #12 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Any new recruits this week? I would really like to, but without a roomie I'm looking at $1665 for a 1-A single and $1798 for the cheapest 4-A. Add about $400 for airfare from Charlotte and it's up over $2,000 at the cheapest..... and that's using Early Saver with a non-refundable deposit and no OBC The group rates would be $1865 for a 1-A and $2065 for a 4-A with a $50 OBC. That's about double my usual cruising-as-a-single budget. I really don't know at this point what I'm going to do. SFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieastrosfan Posted April 5, 2011 Author #13 Share Posted April 5, 2011 Still hoping for some company! Could get awfully lonely in here talking to myself for a year and a half. :o:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coder01 Posted April 5, 2011 #14 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I am still waiting to get approval for my vacation time for then. But what is the advantage of booking through here if you do not get a better deal than through Carnival?:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aggieastrosfan Posted April 7, 2011 Author #16 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Sorry I didn't get to check in yesterday. Got a new laptop at work - YAY! - but spent my entire day reinstalling everything. :rolleyes: I am still waiting to get approval for my vacation time for then. But what is the advantage of booking through here if you do not get a better deal than through Carnival?:confused: You can book ES through the group, though you won't get the OBC. If you can get a cheaper overall rate, factoring in the OBC, elsewhere, honestly I'm not sure what the advantage is. :confused: Have you found a cheaper rate? If you have, let me know, as I can have Johna look into it - I have been on group cruises before where the rates dropped, so it's possible. Any word of the deposit rules yet :confused: Not yet, I'll follow up on that right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aggieastrosfan Posted April 7, 2011 Author #17 Share Posted April 7, 2011 I couldn't get in touch with Laura so I sent an email to Johna. She said it was a mistake, there is no reduced deposit on this sailing. :(:mad: I am NOT happy right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coder01 Posted April 8, 2011 #18 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I just booked through Carnival with my PVP, 8D cat at the early saver rate of $1586.38 which includes all taxes, etc, per person. Plus we will get the $100.00 credit on the cruise from the certificate we bought on the last cruise, plus $100.00 on board credit. He also thought we were getting a letter in the mail from the casino for some other credit. We are excited to going back to Alaska, we were there in July 2007! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
