MIAMI (February 24, 2010) - Carnival Cruise Lines is reporting record wave season bookings, with strong reservations activity for 2010 departures.
As a result of the strong booking volumes, a general price increase will be implemented effective March 22 for all June, July, and August sailings.

Carnival President and CEO Gerry Cahill said, "We're seeing significantly increased volume as consumers are taking advantage of the incredible value that a Carnival cruise provides. And while pricing hasn't fully recovered to 2008 levels, we are increasing prices and will implement an across-the-board increase effective March 22."

They are not the only ones - a week ago we booked a Bermuda cruise for end of May - Celebrity had great fares - three days later my sister checked about going with us and the fares were already increased by as much as $350 per person!
