MIAMI, Nov. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In honor of Veterans Day, Carnival Cruise Line is enhancing its military offerings benefiting active and retired members of
the U.S. Armed Forces. The cruise line is launching a new monthly cruise giveaway for military families who attend one of
Carnival's military appreciation events held on board during every cruise across the fleet. Additionally, a special booking
incentive in November provides special discounts for military personnel which are combinable with the line's already-low Early
Saver rates.
New beginning this November, Carnival's shipboard military appreciation events will feature a chance for military families to
win a free three- to eight-day cruise from any U.S. homeport to the Bahamas, Caribbean or Mexico. One drawing per month will be held from all entries
received fleetwide, with the monthly winners to be announced on the Facebook page of Carnival's well-known cruise director turned brand ambassador, John
Heald. The events will also feature a moving new video tribute honoring the Armed Forces and narrated by Carnival
President Christine Duffy.
A special booking promotion for active and retired military personnel running from Nov. 3-14,
2017, provides a $50 onboard credit per cabin plus a two-category upgrade and reduced
deposits from $99 per person, which can be combined with Carnival's highly attractive Early Saver
rates. In addition, guests who qualify for the promotion can book up to two additional staterooms with the same bonuses and
pricing.
"Carnival has always been a big supporter of military families and I'm proud to say that we carry more active and retired
military personnel than any other cruise line in the world," said Christine Duffy, president of
Carnival Cruise Line. "We take great pride in showing our appreciation for those who serve with this expanded program."
