When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Carnival Cruise phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call.

When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
