Airfare Information

Airfare is not included in our pricing.  We are a Cruise and Tour Company and do not offer Air other than what the Cruise line offers.  With most domestic flights you can find much better pricing on your own if you know where to look.  In the case of flying to Los Angeles we can share a couple of things.  If flying from the western states we suggest you check with Southwest Airlines, and JetBlue – these will offer the best prices in most cases.

Southwest services Los Angeles International Airport (LAX).  JetBlue services Long Beach Airport (LGB). 
To book Southwest or JetBlue you must contact them directly or through their websites.

Southwest        http://www.southwest.com/             or   1-800-I-FLY-SWA (1-800-435-9792)

JetBlue             http://www.jetblue.com/                 or    1-800-JETBLUE (538-2583)

Other Airlines

All other airlines may be checked through Search Engines like Expedia.com, Orbitz.com, or Travelocity.com.

When using search engines -
We have found it best to search here, but then try to book directly with the airline for better service.  This is especially true in the case of flight changes, delays, and cancellations – so you don’t get kicked around in these situations.  When push comes to shove, the Airlines treat theirdirect-booked clients better.
AND -- We always recommend Travel Insurance !

Carnival Air Arrangements

If you are flying cross country and arriving the day of the cruise embarkation, we would then suggest you consider the Cruise line air arrangements for 2 reasons.  1. They will guarantee to get you to the ship or the first port of call on their dime.  2. Transfers are included in their Air prices.  It's worth checking before you decide and you may cancel the air up until final payment without penalty.  Some folks book this as a back while looking.   For more help, just call us at DanceFun 1-866-3256-2338 or 1-405-282-8989.
