    Can't believe I found this

    Hi, well I was just checking on other websites..on cruise prices. found that the exact cruise I am booked on is cheaper on their site  by $100 and a different ship is even less.

    so will Carnival match price or not?

    just curious.

    They have a low price guarantee, if it is legitimate, which so often, they are not.  But, only for the same ship, same room category, etc.

    Hope this helps.

    Jan,

    It depends on a couple of factors. Price matching will only occur if the same criteria exist. Same Ship, Same Sailing, Same Cabin Class - it's an apples vs. oranges thing.

    What site did you find the cheaper price on? If it's an online travel agency, then it may be a group space rate which is $50-100 less per person than the standard individual rate that one would get from Carnival Reservations, or a PVP.

    Just for everyone's general info - The "catch" for the Carnival Price Guarantee is only for legitimate advertised price for exactly the same cruise package within 24 hours of your booking. Ken

    Re: Can't believe I found this

    The 24 hours for price matching is pretty much an industry standard.  I believe Carnival will lower the price if you find it lower on thier web site before you leave.  My cruise just dropped so it is almost cheaper, I am still paying less, but you can bet I will check the Carnival site often!
