Locked-in Group Rates for Carnival?

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm wondering if any of you have any luck in locking in the rates for a Carnival Cruise. The rates I'm promised will be expiring soon, and not everyone has booked...and it seems all future bookings will be on new rates...can cruise rates be locked in?

 

Thanks!

now im not positive on this but from someone i know who got married on a cruise ship this is what she said...they'll give you the quotes but they exprire within a certain amount of time unless you put a group deposit down....usually about 10 people. so you can either gather 10 people or however many the requirment is or you can put it all down yourself and as other guests start booking the money you put down for all the deposits will go to the price of your package.

Hmmmm...... what we did was create a group booking and everyone had to pay a $25 deposit. Our travel agent was able to call Carnival multiple times to extend the deposit deadline. The last deadline expired in June, and when she called them to extend yet again, Carnival said they would honor the remaining rooms we had blocked off for the group at the current pricing for an undisclosed period of time.
