10 points cruise question?

Question

ok so im going on the carnival cruise line and it said $369 for 5 days

i was just wondering if that meant for all 5 days or is every day worth $369?

please don't assume cuz then you'll make an *** out of u and me

Answer 1

That cost is for the whole cruise for one person. The other person in your cabin needs to pay the same amount.

Answer 2

That is for the whole cruise for the 5 days for each person. If you went alone, it would cost a lot more then that as the price you quoted was for per person, double occupancy. Also there are always add ons like extra money for high fuel prices, tips, taxes, insurance, and of course what ever else you spend while you are on the cruise. That price does NOT include alcohol, shore excursions, tips and things like that too. You may also need transportation to and from the port as well. So the bottom line is it does add up to a lot more then your $369 price quote. The average cruise for 2 people including everything is more like about $3,000 for 5 days.

Answer 3

$369 is the base price for all 5 days but only for 1 person.  The second person in the room will also have to pay this amount.  Keep in mind though that there are also other fees and taxes that are applied to this when you do make the purchase (probably around another $200-400 extra)  This also does not include airfare for getting to the port if you need to fly.

Answer 4

that's the cost for all five days and its worth it because meals are included

Answer 5

thats the total cost per person for the five days, however check and see what is coming out of your pocket before you book... sometimes there are other things that you have to pay for that ar enoty included in the passenger fee, and that does not include, normally airfare if you haveto fly to the cruise location...

Answer 6

You should see a travel agent and have them book it for you.  It will be the same price and sometimes better if you go to the right travel agent, as sometimes they can get you a group rate and you don't have to have anything to do with the people in it.  

The agent cant tell you if your fuel charge or gratuities are included.  Carnival usually adds it to your bill at the end of the cruise, but it can be paid for in advance if you want and it can be easily disputed if you don't get  the service.  An agent can set it all up for you and they won't charge any more for doing it and can give you a lot more information.

When doing it online, you got to know who you are dealing with and you got to read the fine print.  Some onlilne sites will quote you a price without adding the fuel charge, administrative fee until you put in your credit card and then it is too late to cancel.  Since you sound like an inexperienced cruisers......see a travel agent.
