travelhound Posted March 9, 2020 #301 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I suspect this is why they are doing credits and not refunds for cancellations. We are scheduled to cruise on the 22nd and if we go we receive a $200 obc. If we want to cancel we can, up to 3 days before sailing, but it's not a refund. We would have until Dec 2021 to rebook. If Princess cancels us, then we get money refunded and a future cruise credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would probably be impossible to get past congress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushka Posted March 9, 2020 #304 Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) The Australian share market dived another 7.4 % today. I'd wait. The virus doesn't like heat but it is just starting here in Australia and it's late summer. Edited March 9, 2020 by Pushka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have (had) our CCL and RCL shares in the DWs IRA-SEP Account over which we have direct control of how the assets are allocated. As we can buy/sell stocks/EFTs/Mutuals, I consider that a brokerage account. Exactly. And since you have a brokerage account, if you had shares of a company such as IHG in it, you could not get their stock holder discount on hotel stays based on stock in that account.

frugaltravel Posted March 9, 2020 #307 Share Posted March 9, 2020 CCL will probably drop 3-10% today. Wow futures are already down 3-4% and with developments with Princess ships over the weekend I would guess CCL will drop more than the market today.

Right - down more than $2 right now - glad that I didn't buy at $33-$35 - still waiting on the sideline to avoid losing money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you buy, you don't lose money unless you sell. How long do you wait "to avoid losing money"? If you are trying to buy at the bottom, good luck with that.

You do it you sell it today, but that was the point. It's only a loss if you sell it today at $25 and you paid $35. Tomorrow, it could be a $40, and you would have made $500 (although not likely). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
