How do I book my cruise online?

Ready to book your next cruise online? Carnival.com's booking engine is faster and easier than ever before. There are easy-to-follow instructions – within the engine itself -- to guide you every step of the way. Here is how it works in seven easy steps.

1) Use our "Find A Cruise" or "Quick Search" features to search for a sailing by sail date, itinerary, departure date and departure port. Or, if you have a specific ship you would like to sail on, you can go right to that ship's page and start your search from there.

2) Click on the "Cruise Details" button for the sailing that you would like to take.

3) Scroll to the bottom of the "Cruise Details" page where you will:

• Select the number of guests you’re traveling with
• Change the departure date if necessary
• Click the price link for the type of stateroom you want

4) Confirm your stateroom choice, or choose to upgrade.

5) Fill in your information including:

• Your dining time
• Whether you would like to pre pay your gratuities
• If you would like to purchase a transfer
• If any guest in your party has special needs

6) Provide the same information for any additional guests you are traveling with.

7) Supply us with your payment details and complete your booking.
