4 Reasons Why You SHOULD be Cruising with Carnival Cruise Lines Right Now

Carnival Cruise Lines has been in the news a LOT lately. From tales of power being lost at sea (Carnival Triumph) to cancellations of some of their other ships due to mechanical issues, there hasn’t been a day that’s gone by recently without hearing Carnival’s name somewhere. Some people are very wary of traveling on Carnival’s ships, but I’m going to tell you why I believe that you ABSOLUTELY should be booking your next vacation with them now.

• • They have AMAZING sales several times a year. Carnival runs everything from Early Saver, Pack & Go, Triple Play, and Last Minute Cruise Deals just to name a few.
    

• The weather is GREAT for cruising! The weather has NEVER been nicer in the Carribean, Mexico, and the Bahamas…why NOT go on a cruise? Just remember hurricane season starts June 1st. September and October are the most active months so you can usually grab great deals during those months.
• The ships are only getting more and more technology. Embarkation can be lengthy and confusing and now some cruise lines offer remote check-in. All documentation, such as uploading your photo and receiving digital boarding information, can be done via online check-in. The internet on board many ships is fast enough to even stream your favorite shows. Many ships are even going to wearable technology so your credit card may be accessible via a necklace or radio frequency technology to open your cabin door.
• Its an All Inclusive Family Vacation. There is no other vacation that you can take that includes hotel accommodations and amenities, free food and drinks (non-alcoholic), free entertainment, and FREE babysitting for your children if you want a few hours to yourself (if your children are old enough to go to the kids program on their ships) for less than $50 a day (***avg for 4 people per day on a 3-5 day cruise). If you are a US citizen and you are leaving from the US and coming back to the US–you don’t even need a passport to sail!

Traveling on a Carnival ship can be scary right now with the recent events that have happened, but if you really think about it, the low prices and stricter regulations could be a blessing in disguise for planning your vacation and keeping more of your cash!
