Preferred Awards Individual Incentives

Meetings on Land vs. Meetings on Carnival

Full Ship Charters

It is my pleasure to introduce you to Carnival's new Group Business Development team, effective May 4, 2009.

Group Business Development focuses on the corporate meeting, incentive and full ship charter segments of our cruise business and also encompasses large detailed affinity groups of 100-plus staterooms. All of this business is important to Carnival so we've created a high powered team of experienced professionals to focus on securing, operating and retaining these groups, charters and individual incentive programs.

For those of you who've worked with various members of our team I know you'll agree, there's no stronger team dedicated to this business in the cruise industry! And if you haven't given us a program recently, now's the time.

Carnival has always been about providing great vacation values compared against the full range of vacation choices. Right now the value message resonates with buyers - whether corporate buyers or individual group members. That means Carnival should be in your consideration set for a broad range of group programs.

Hot off the presses, we've just updated our Preferred Awards Individual Incentive program and pricing. Check out the new pricing at our Carnivalmeetings.com

In September find us in Chicago at the Motivation Show, September 29 - October 1.
Look for us at booth #3624. Hope to see you there so we can catch up and talk about opportunities.

On behalf of my entire team, we all look forward to talking with you in the months to come, on your new prospects or existing programs. Contacts us @ 1-800-438-6744 extension 70007 and visit www.carnivalmeetings.com.

Sincerely,

Chérie L. Weinstein, CITE, CTC
Vice President - Group Business Development
