What's The Red Star Mean?

Just curious folks. This morning, I took another gander at my itinerary for my February 27 Legend cruise (hoping we'd changed from Belize to Costa Maya - no such luck) and I notice, for the first time, that a red star has appeared to the left of my name. There is no such star beside my wife's name. I searched the Carnival website, hoping to find out what the star meant, but no such luck. Anyone have any ideas what the red star means?

You are sailing on a Communist ship, welcome comrade!

I believe all it means is that you are the "executor" of the reservation.

No, no, no that cannot be it! That's too simple! I want it to mean I'm the 2 millionth guest on Legend and I've won free Carnival cruises for life!

Yes, it means that you are the primary guest.

You are the primary guest and the lucky one responsible to pay for everything. :eek:

Okay, I can understand that it designates the primary party (although my better half might disagree), but why would the star show up only yesterday? I booked this cruise last August.

You're special. :)

I'm the primary guest on my booking and there is no red star beside my name or anyone else's name. Lol - maybe you are right!!!

I also do not have a red star beside my name - Feb. 26th cruise on the Dream....I am the primary.

three wise men are about to show up. accept their presents!

OMG...this is the BEST laugh I've had in days...if not weeks....

Thanks for that!!! :):eek::D

As someone with a star in front of her name on the Carnival site, I will be greatly disappointed if the answer is something other than they recognise a star when they see one.

It means that you are designated to be the "STAR" of the guest talent show. They'll expect you to sing the entire score from "Chicago". I'll be waiting to see it on You Tube. Good luck. :D

"SKY"

Take your pick...

Trust me, if I've been designated to be the star of the talent show, there are going to be a lot of disappointed people in the audience. Oh well. Just thought I'd ask. But don't blame me when I get back from my cruise and tell everyone here I've won free Carnival cruises for life. 9 days, 22 hours, 56 minutes.

You're a cop, you know what being marked measns. (lol)

Could it mean that you have not yet completed your Fun Pass/online check-in? Perhaps you have not indicated a credit card or cash option for your S&S?

Check the bottom of your screen to see if there is a footnote explaining the *, or go into the Fun Pass/Check-in and see if there is a message on one of the screens.

Im a Star too! I got the star on mine as well... Im sure its just because im the primary.

My name has the red star but we are paying with a credit card in DH's name. So I don't understand why I would be primary. Maybe because I was the one who they booked first (meaning they took my info before his)?

Aha! I just looked at my second booking (the one booked directly through Carnival, not a TA), and see a red star next to my name on the Billing tab.

It means you are the primary person who booked the cruise and the lucky recipient of the bill. :)

I noticed a star next to my name yesterday also. I had never noticed it before so maybe it is something new. I just assumed it was because I was the "primary" person since I have handled all the arrangements.

You're a cop, you know what being marked measns. (lol)

Yeah, I think it means CYA. Can I say that here?

Best user name ever! :D

Nah, I don't think so. My booking shows my funpass/check-in complete. I've been paid in full for months. Maybe, maybe it's because I got an upsell call a couple of weeks ago from Carnival. The PVP wanted to upgrade me from my aft vista suite with the three acre balcony to the grand suite on Legend - all for only $500 more per person - and I turned him down. Yeah, that's gotta be it. I'm marked for life.
