Faster to the Fun Splendor

[Jeffbhhs]

I know when I was onboard 2 years ago they did not have the Faster to the Fun program, does anyone know if this is offered on the ship out of NYC?

[champagne123]

Yes, it is.

[Jeffbhhs]

Yes, it is.

 

Excellent! Does this still include priority boarding and priority on/off at ports?

Don't waste your money I didn't purchase it and in most cases I was one of the first on and off the ship

For me I really want the priority boarding even though I get the port ridiculously early its nice to skip some of the lines. Even when you get there early people are rude and try to cut in front of the line. In my opinion this is where all cruise lines fail in preboarding, I feel that if I want to waste my time and get to the port as the others exit I should be able to get right on once it is cleared they need some type of number system!

Unfortunately, FTTF is sold out of my booking of the Splendor or I would do it. We booked it for the Paradise out of Tampa.

 

Priority tendering was one of the main reasons I'd book FTTF. I bypassed flights of a line to get on a tender boat, and was politely escorted to the front of the line, got right aboard the second I got to the door, and was on my way.

How many days out does it become available?

We did this on the Splendor this past Sept. It does get you priority boarding and access to your cabin as soon as you board. It also gets you to the priority GS line (if you need it) and priority disembarking when you get back to NYC. Since there are no tenders at the NE/Can ports, there was no priority on/off at the ports that I was aware.

 

The $50 is subjective, some people like it, some don't. For me/wife, we do and the $50 is negligible to the cost of the cruise.

 

The excursions are supposed to be in place NLT 120 prior to the cruise. However, I have seen FTTF as far out as 9 months.

 

And there is a numbering system (zones), however there are also some priority boarding (diamond, platinum, bridal parties, suites, fttf).
