  1. Hi seeking advice trying to figure out if I should wait to book or not. My friends want us to join them in a cruise next April 2024 on the Carnival Spirit out of Tampa. I get amazing deals from Carnival and had the option of an inside, window or balcony at 100 each per person. I chose the balcony of course and put it on hold so I could speak to a cruise consultant. Traveled back to my home in Maui and my hold of course expired. Checked back and the balcony room had gone up to 1070 per person. I checked other dates and ports and all had gone up by 1000. So I understand if the cruises go up because there's suddenly a lot of bookings/interest but each cruise out of each different port from SF, Tampa, Baltimore, Seattle and more had gone up by this amount. All different times of the year...I am seeking advice on what to do. My spouse won't take a less than a balcony for that length of a cruise. Our friends are already booked. The deal is great even with a window room but I do find it odd that each balcony room on each cruise for each month/year went up by 1000 when I can still get the window or inside for 100 each on each cruise. Do you guys think that I should wait and see if prices go down? What I am wondering is because it's so easy and inexpensive to book a cruise initially do people book and hold until they decide what they actually want to do or if they want to go? Sorry and thanks for the help/info this is my first time ever asking a question on a public forum! Happy Cruising:)
