What Was You Best Deal....?

[karinad]

Other then a free cruise, what was the best deal you ever got from Carnival for a cruise? What you paid per night, or per person, etc.

Hurricane Rita special: $89 pp for OV on the Ecstasy for 3 day to nowhere!

[Tapi]

Also a hurricane special the day after Katrina hit Miami. Lots of no shows so Carnival scrambled to sell some cabins at the last minute.

 

It was a 3 night Bahamas cruise on the Fascination. Best cabin available for $99 which turned out to be an OV on the Empress deck.

 

I booked this cruise at 10am on the morning of departure and I was sipping on a fru fru drink by the pool 2 hours later. :) By the way, it was a wonderful cruise. Clear skies and the seas looked like glass.

Mine was a 6 day on Breeze last year. I ended up paying $1148 for an aft wrap with 2 people. Worked out to just over $95/pp per day with grats included in that cost.

No hurricane, just a great December deal on the Ecstasy. 4 nighter to the Bahamas for $149.00 pp. Less than forty bucks a night. :)

My best deal was a 4-day Ladies' Cruise on the Sensation with my 4 DDs and my sister. We had 3 OV cabins side by side for $42 per night per person. We had a blast!

[8esther8]

Mine was a 7 day on Glory last December for $219. pp., interior cabin, before fees. Fun was had by all.

[ZoeyVictoria]

Mine was a 2-night CTN on Celebrity for $79. Wish I could find another one like it.

[curious_st]

My best deal was an 8 day eastern carribbean on Carnival Liberty for $300 per person (before fees) for an OV.

[quickrate]

Mine was $500 on Imagination ocean view for 2 and when we got to the port, we had been upgraded to a Grand Suite!! this was in 2008 when they were still doing actual upgrades!

The Pack and Play offer got my husband and I a 7 night cruise for $120 pp plus port fees and taxes AND $100 OBC. We couldn't pass it up even though it is our 3rd cruise in the last 6 months and we are NOT retired or able to take multiple vacations.

[SadieN]

$25/pp (plus port fees and taxes) Platinum offer for the two day Imagination cruise last December. The fare was for anyone in the cabin.

[Froufie]

Breeze Transatlantic - final cost $999 with a $500 OBC for 15 days!!! :D:D

[pattimelt]

I have had 2 free cruises, so do those count??

 

Otherwise, the pack and play I just booked works.. port fees and taxes.. about $20 a day..

[DaiLina]

Great Thread!! Our best deal was $269 per person for a Balcony on 5 day Victory cruise. We're currently booked on Breeze 6 day cruise for $760 per person so we are really, really hoping the price drops significantly before we sail in 3 months.

A solo B2B 6-day/8-day on Breeze in a cove balcony: $599 for the 6-day + $799 for the 8-day = $1398 for a 14-day cruise in a balcony cabin...and the cabin all to myself. Wowzers!

 

I would also suggest that $75 for the Chef's Table is also a great bargain...but it's not the thread topic so please excuse the mini-hijack. :o

$199 per person for a balcony on the lido. 5 night cruise on the Carnival Victory. Cruise to Grand Turk, Half Moon Cay, and Nassau. Price started out over $300 pp and kept dropping. love the OBC.

[maritaysa]

7 day Pacific Northwest Swine Flu reroute to Astoria, Victoria, and Vancouver for $359pp and we got one of the great L shaped cabins, and the port fees were nominal.

The Carnival Pride cruise I will be on this Sunday. It was a Pack & Play offer ended up costing $300.00 per person with insurance!

[karinad]

A solo B2B 6-day/8-day on Breeze in a cove balcony: $599 for the 6-day + $799 for the 8-day = $1398 for a 14-day cruise in a balcony cabin...and the cabin all to myself. Wowzers!

That is a great deal for 14 days! A $75. Chef's Table adds to a great price!

Is this out of Baltimore? I keep watching the rates for Baltimore and NY since we are about 3 hrs. from either. That is a great price! Good for you! Have a wonderful time!

[S.S.Oceanlover]

best was a 3 nighter on one of the Fantasy class ships for $39pp plus $19 for my son as a 3rd in the cabin.

 

I believe it was a Thanksgiving cruise.

 

It was in 2001 right after 911.:(

Mine was a 5-day on the Holiday's final Carnival sailing. It went out of Mobile on 11-2-2009, and Mobile always had to drop prices really low to fill the ship. I got a very tiny 1A with a porthole. The going rate was only $149 for that 5-day cruise. Since I was solo, I had a $223.50 rate minus their extinct $25 welcome back aboard credit, to total $198.50.

[ccdaniel2707]

My husband and I currently have an 8 day booked on the Sunshine leaving 10/31 for $160 pp taxes and fees included plus we got $100 obc. We have an interior room with an obstructed view on deck 3.
