You have to be able to access your cruise online. Go into Manage your cruise and then to Excursions. Look for the excursions listed for your Port of Embarkation. It should be listed there.

However You might need to be paid in full to book excursions. No, you do not need to be paid in full. We checked everyday, sometimes twice a day for 4 months. It finally opened about 6 to 5 weeks before our cruise. It sold out again before the day was out. But that's fine, we got ours!:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bflohr Posted January 11, 2014 #34 Share Posted January 11, 2014 We booked the Feb15 2014 Miracle, FTTF was sold out back in November when we booked. New ones were available about 39 days out. I bought the last one available then, and see more for sale now. It would be interesting to know who the compute how many to sell per ship. With my luck every cabin will have it when we sail.

dwayneb236 Posted January 11, 2014 #36 Share Posted January 11, 2014 We're at 12 days out and some finally showed up..Been checking a few times a day.. I snagged two of them.. Have no idea how many there are as I see nothing that gives a total available. Just glad I got ours.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parisbully Posted January 11, 2014 #37 Share Posted January 11, 2014 We have booked through a travel agent. Do they check for openings or can I do online. Would rather do myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would rather do myself Once you're able to access your booking online, you can per chase excursions. I seriously doubt any TA will check it often for anyone but themselves.

Paumavista Posted January 28, 2014 #41 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Can't seem to access my account on the CCL website.....tells me that my booking number isn't correct - I'll have to call my CCL booking agent.....BUT What is the cost for FTTF and do you just need ONE per cabin or does everyone in the cabin need one? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needabreakcanada Posted January 28, 2014 #42 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I believe it is $49.95 and yes only one per cabin is needed. Make sure to read what is included so you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnnaDurbs Posted February 8, 2014 #44 Share Posted February 8, 2014 This post will probebly be taken off. Don't bother with this. Just a Money maker. Luggage will be delivered whenever. There is no priority even for Platinum. It's written even in their brochure you get in the the Platinum waiting area. Had the grand suite and room wasn't completely ready when we arrived.

deborahjo Posted February 8, 2014 #46 Share Posted February 8, 2014 [quote name='cmdknw']It is currently sold out, what are the chances that more spots will open?[/QUOTE] For our Liberty Cruise in September FTTF did not even open til last week. As soon as I seen those 15 open I jumped on it. It took less then 24 hours to sell those out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MISSSNOOPYGIRL Posted February 8, 2014 #47 Share Posted February 8, 2014 wow people actually buy this? Don't mean to be negative here but I'm surprised by the enthusiasm. Because you are impatient you choose to spend more money? Again, this is a question, not a put down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare AtSeaWithChris Posted February 8, 2014 #48 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Absolutely, getting on earlier, having room ready, getting lunch without a long line, and having bags delivered to the room, unpacked, all before Muster? Yes. Sent from my wonderful iPhone 5 using the fabulous Cruise Critic app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deborahjo Posted February 9, 2014 #50 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I was on the ship before noon on our last cruise. Was in cabin dropping carry ons and having Guys by 12:45. We actually got ahead of platinum and diamond cruisers somehow. We were getting on with the wedding parties. No we did not cut line just went where we were told.
