Good point Jeff! Congrats on another $100!! That's a few mudslides for ya. :thumbup: Even if people have already checked, they should check again before the sale ends Thursday (again, inside info I have says Sunday but that is still not official)

Carnival prices have been going down faster than the Concordia!

I have a client who booked on December 31st. Carnival Magic on June 2nd. Their 7C Cove Balcony price has gone down six times, four in the past week and a half. Thier cabin price has dropped by almost half since they booked.

All this said, what's going on at Carnival? All the cancelled cruises on Triumph, two cancelled sailings on Sunshine and this sale are costing them millions!! There are the price reductions, new bookings at the lower rates, refunds for cancelled bookings, refunds of non-refundable air and other covered things for those booked on the cancelled cruises, discounts for future cruises for those booked on cancelled cruises who rebook...it's HUGE!! Yes, they are stepping up to the plate to make ammends....but...
:scratch: Makes me wonder how they plan to recoup these losses.... :einstein:
