For A Limited Time Only, Up To Four 'Fun Ship' Staterooms May Be Booked At Special Discounted Rates

MIAMI (05/22/03) - Through a new program from Carnival Cruise Lines, active U.S. military personnel can book up to four "Fun Ship" staterooms at savings of up to 50 percent off published fares. The special rates are available for a limited time only on a wide variety of "Fun Ship" departures through the end of 2003.

The discounted rates start at $169 per person for three-day cruises; $199 per person for four-day cruises; $219 per person for five-day cruises; and $299 per person for seven-day, on sailings to the Bahamas, Caribbean, Mexico, Alaska, and Canada/New England.

"Carnival has historically offered discounts for military personnel. However, this new program not only allows men and women currently serving in the U.S. armed forces to enjoy special savings on 'Fun Ship' vacations but also to bring along their friends and family members at the same discounted rates," said Bob Dickinson, Carnival president and CEO.

Reservations can be made through any travel agent and requesting fare code CPM1/CPM2.

Valid military identification is required at the time of booking. Military personnel must sail to be eligible for discounts on additional staterooms purchased. Rates reflect category 1A (interior) accommodations and are capacity controlled. Certain other restrictions apply.
