What is the 311 Caribbean Cruise?
The 311 Caribbean Cruise 2012 is setting sail May 10-14, 2012, from Miami to Half Moon Cay (our own PRIVATE ISLAND in the Bahamas!) on the Carnival Destiny.
311 is taking over the Carnival Destiny ship again, but this time we’re headed to a private island where only 311 cruisers get to hang out for 2 days of sun, sand, clear blue water and the sounds of 311 and friends! It’s going to be an unforgettable island party!
During the 4-night cruise, you’ll be able to see two 311 concerts & a 311 Q&A. You & your cabin-mates will also get your own personal photo with the band. We'll have various games & activities on board - and bands & DJ's playing all over the ship - day & night.
311 had such an amazing time on the cruise last year, they can’t wait to see you again! Think we can outdo last year’s cruise? It’s going to be hard, but we’re definitely up for the challenge. Don't miss it! Get on the boat with 311!

How does ticketing work for my 311 shows?
311 will be performing 4 shows and every guest is guaranteed to see them perform THREE times! Once outside on the Lido Deck, once on the beach of Half moon Cay, and once at a ticketed show in the ship’s main indoor theater. Shows for all other artists will be General Admission and will not require a ticket.
For your indoor 311 show, you will choose between Show 1 or Show 2 and whether you would prefer Floor Level Standing Room or Balcony Seating.
As you make a reservation:
1. You will be asked for your cabin's headlining show preference. There will be two shows at similar times on two different days. Your entire cabin will be placed in the same show - people in the same cabin may not choose different shows.
2. You will be asked for your cabin’s zone seating preference. This refers to which “zone” or designated area of the theater you would prefer to sit in. The zones are based on real time availability and you will be placed in your zone according to when you picked it. For instance, if you are one of the first people to choose that zone, you will be seated in the front of the zone, if you are one of the last, you will be seated in the back of the zone. All zone selections are final, and are based on availability.
*Please Note: ALL zones on the floor are standing room only. You will be assigned a specific “seat” but there will be four people to a bench- two standing in front, two in back.

What is the Independent Traveler Program?
If you are planning on joining us for 311 Caribbean Cruise, but you haven't been able to find someone to go with you, don't worry - this is the program for you!
The Independent Traveler Program (ITP) allows you to book a cabin and only be responsible for your half of the cabin (plus the standard taxes and fees of $179.00). However, by signing up for the ITP, you agree to (potentially) be paired with another guest who is also participating in the ITP. We will pair you based on availability (with the potential of not being paired at all). Full details can be found here.
