I will let you contact HAL about this needed update as I am leaving for Alaska tomorrow with a first time shareholder $100 OBC. 😁 (BTW, I do agree with you.)

When I spoke to HAL last Friday about requesting shareholder OBC for a cruise this coming Saturday they stated six months for the statement. I presume they are now clarifying what constitutes "current" but haven't updated the shareholder benefit pdf yet. (I used my "Notice of a brokerage order execution" for shares bought an hour earlier. No issues with using it.)

Here you go. Looks like one set of instructions for all Carnivore Cruise Lines. Just different addresses to send it to. 2021 US Annual Report - Shareholder Benefit - Final.pdf

For someone just starting out without any broker what is the simplest way to buy 100 shares of Carnival stock?

I will be on the Eurodam at the end of this month. I plan to smuggle on board a Costco size box of crackers and go into black market crackerteering. Might even make enough to pay for the next cruise.

Version 4.14.0 is now available. To find your current version press "Experiences" in the center bottom banner with the ship and then press "about". (As OP of this thread it's intention is to simply notify others about updates to Navigator. Not whine about it. Thx.)

Sadly, MSNBC spends more air time (on ship) with commercials on how good they are than on actual news.

Navigator version 4.13 is now available.

Version 4.12 is now available.

When we boarded the Noordam last month it was its first trip since the pandemic started. Still available on our TV's were the HAL team member training videos. (They were removed after about 2 1/2 weeks into the cruise) They were actually quite interesting to watch. When something/anything is reported to any HAL person they are required to pass the information to the proper person. We had several lights burned out in our cabin and reported it to the steward. It took three days before they were replaced by the electricians. No big deal as I am sure there were other work orders to be completed before us.

We were on the Noordam 2 weeks ago arriving in Vancouver from the Panama Canal transition. Everyone received a letter in their stateroom informing us that for those flying out of Vancouver on the day of arrival HAL would provide complimentary Covid testing the day before. (We drove home.) As to whether this practice is still happening I do not know.

Easy to carry and unroll for use. Regular size roll of gaffer tape is as big as a roll of duct tape.

Wind noise- one of many reasons we carry gaffer tape rolled on a pencil with us when cruising.

You might want to practice this in the test forum.... https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/860-test-forum/
