Carnival Short Cruise Savings

Carnival Cruise Lines is offering per diems starting at $43 for its shorter West Coast Mexico cruises from Long Beach and San Diego, which begin this month. Early Saver fares starting at $169 per person are available on three- and four-day, midweek voyages aboard the Carnival Elation from San Diego, as well as on four-day voyages on the Carnival Paradise from Long Beach. Early Saver fares are available up to three months prior to the sailing date for cruises of five or fewer days. The special fares encompass all stateroom types, including suites, and come with a fare protection feature if fares later drop below what the consumer originally paid. Special fares are also available on the Carnival Elation’s new, four-day weekend and five-day cruises that begin next month, featuring extended visits to Cabo San Lucas. Unique to this program is the five-day itinerary departing Saturdays, which features two full days in Cabo San Lucas.
