How to Save on Carnival
- Most ports, most options: Carnival sails from more US ports than any other line: Miami, Port Canaveral, Galveston, Long Beach, Jacksonville, Tampa, New Orleans, Baltimore, and more. Drive to the nearest one and save on flights.
- Short cruises are dirt cheap: 3-4 night Carnival sailings from Long Beach, Jacksonville, or Mobile can run under $50/night for inside cabins. These are the cheapest cruises in the industry.
- VIFP Club loyalty: Carnival's loyalty program, VIFP Club, rewards repeat cruisers with priority boarding, free drinks at certain tiers, and exclusive rates.
- Guy's Burger Joint is free: Carnival's partnership with Guy Fieri means excellent free burgers on every ship. The specialty dining upcharges are modest too compared to other lines.
