On Carnival Cruises, you Become
A Very Important Fun Person
Carnival Cruise Line has just announced a modification to their loyalty program, which takes effect this month. Depending on your current status with Carnival, you will like or dislike the program immediately - there is no in between. The big changes are the switch to nights at sea instead of number of cruises and the introduction of new tiers.
Five VIFP Club Levels
If you’ve never cruised before, sign up now to hear about great members-only fares and promotions. If you’ve been on board before, you’re already a member. Just activate your profile to make sure all your information is up-to-date and to find out your VIFP Club membership level. Read more ...
Blue (1st sailing): If you’ve never cruised with Carnival before, you can become a VIFP Club
member even before you’ve booked to start taking advantage of
members-only fares, specials and more.

Milestone Cruises
VIFP Club members sailing on their 25th, 50th and 75th cruise will receive a shipboard credit equal to 25, 50 or 75 percent of their cruise fare, respectively, for that voyage. Members sailing on their 100th cruise earn a complimentary Caribbean, Mexican Riviera or Alaska voyage of up to eight days in length.
The new program takes effect on sailings on or after June 25, 2012 (on Carnival Breeze it starts July 9th).
