Shareholder Credit

Once you have applied for the credit, do they make sure you are still owning the shares at sailing date? It's a symbol I've been tracking to add to my portfolio anyways. I assume buying options won't cut it though?

Yes you have to submit a copy of your broker statement (w/acct # blacked out) along with the shareholder credit request. The statement has to be within six months of sailing.

No, they do not check.

Once Carnival applies the shareholder credit to your booking, there is no further action or follow-up on their part.

I have submitted for multiple cruises on 1 request, some more than 6 months out, and received the OBC.

I have done same, but on last request they asked that I send a statement less than six months old. Guess it depends on who receives the request.

Correct. You have to own the stock itself, not just an option.

Thanks folks, really been tracking this symbol lately. Not sure that I necessarily plan on keeping it in my portfolio long-term if I buy it but would definitely buy enough to qualify for the OBC for a few of us....assuming it hits the right price when I think it will.

You only get 1 credit per shareholder per cabin per cruise, even if 2 people in the cabin each own 100 shares.

Yeah I did see that, but if I put the shares in my sons' names they should get them still right? We have three cabins.

If they have their own stock accounts (if they are in your account it doesn't count), and you are each in different cabins, then yes you would get three credits.

Are there some sell offs taking place?

As many companies are doing with tax cuts, Carnival continues to announce stock buybacks.

Yeah that's not a problem. They have accounts already (which I manage) so no big deal.

Is there any place in the Cruise Manager to see if shareholder OBC has been applied? I don't sail on Carnival often and am not as familiar with their system (on Princess, it's easy to find :) )

You should find your OBC in the cruise documents. There is a page with the booking #, cost, etc. Your OBC should be there.

What's the amount of the credit and does it increase based on number of shares owned?
