Last year I participated in the Carnival Conversation in Atlanta and it was a great experience. Will Carnival be in Atlanta this year or in the future?

Thank you for your participation with Carnival Conversations! We do try  to offer different locations so  more people can get the opportunity to attend. This year we do not have any events that will be hosted in Atlanta, but we hope you get the chance to join us for a Carnival Conversation event in the future.

Does the new social media package only allow you to visit Facebook, Twitter, etc., or can guests access other websites? Is this available through Wi-Fi to be used on cell phones, or only on the ships computers?

Thank you for your inquiry. The social media package is to be used on the guest phone and only allows the guest access to the various social media sites such as: Twitter, Instagram and  Facebook. Guests will not be able to go to different non-social sites.

I thought I’d give a mention to something so drasticaly overlooked. Agency bonus commission certificates from CLIA….. They are worthless for Carnival. I have not been able to use a single one in years because they have to be used on a Fun Select Fare – which is NEVER sold. What agent books this fare unless a ship is sold out at the last minute!? And the terms of the coupon are specific about receiving it BEFORE the sailing date. When 90% of your clients book in advance by months, and you have a ton of fares lower by hundreds of dollars – how are we supposed to use it? Part of the benefit of the clia bonus coms is to help offset the cost of our membership and yours are no good. …. Since carnival just asked the cruise rookies portion of the agency reward savings thousands of dollars on lost points, and axed comissions – i think you can afford to honor the clia bonus comis coupons.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear of your disappointment with our CLIA coupons. We understand there are guests that book in advance, however, we also have several guests who do book the Fun Select Fare for their cruise. Our goal is for Agents to be able to utilize these coupons, we will take this one back and consider different options for the future. Thank you for your partnership.
