We are not planning on canceling but just curious. We might want to switch it to another cruise during the same time period just because, not because of the virus stuff. Just regular still. Expect a new cancel policy when this one runs out, but not yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGB Posted March 20, 2020 #54 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Just asking technically could carnival sail around home port for 7 days and call that the cruise what I am asking is does the fine print allow them to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigereye Posted March 20, 2020 #55 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Since the President has stated that anyone who travels internationally may not get to return to the U.S. I would think that kills any chance of cruising in the near future. I have a booking on April 9 and I don't think that will happen. I hope Carnival will clarify soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they did modify the cancellation policy, didn’t they? A lot has happened since then, but last week they said that for summer cruises, you can cancel up to 30 days in advance and receive your penalty in FCC to be used in one year. Without this revised policy, you would simply lose that penalty. I think there is also a $50 or $100 OBC if you sail as scheduled. I have a June cruise booked and that is what I have been going on. Hopefully I am not mistaken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow, thanks for checking. I was wondering about this. We are booked through a big box ta and never get any email information. So basically 30 days before cruise to cancel. Makes no difference to me if it is cash or credit because we will be cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(as the one I am cancelling was an excellent rate, and any future cruise I book will be a lot more money for the same cruise) ~ Just looking for opinions ~ thanks ! Sorry, but I don't think they will resume, just my opinion though. Edited March 20, 2020 by mouche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, although the really cheap prices are for upper/lowers. Add $32.50 pp per day for a regular interior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add $32.50 pp per day for a regular interior. Unless it's a really old ship, most have a single bed and sofa bed, some are larger with port holes. If you believe all 1As are upper and lowers you are missing out. In fact for instance on conquest class the 1A mid ship, deck, 6 7 and 8 have two twins that push together. I'm usually torn better these on nice high decks or one that is larger with ports holes, but you walk more. I had yet another TA know it all when I saw one on the Panama cruise for a great price, insist i was wrong... it might be a upper and lower. I said i have actually stayed in that cabin! She wasnt budging and none in our group would share the cabin after a TA says it's a upper and lower. Who would believe me over a TA. Grrrr. It was a group of solo women travelers. I didnt want to pay 200%, but TA won. Say 1A if you dont know.. a lot do know and can take it from there depending on ship class.

I am having cruise withdrawal already and will be looking for as many as possible when things are looking better, so that might make a difference.

In checking Southwest site I can't find out how I'd be able to get the voucher in this case. It mentions being bumped from a flight and being issued one by SW. Have you got any info. on how it would work with Travel Funds that will expire before the date of the new trip? Thanks for telling us about this. I actually found out about it from my own research when I had a trip get canceled due to a hurricane. Once your travel fund expire, call Southwest and ask for it. You will have six months to use the voucher: https://www.southwestaircommunity.com/t5/Travel-Policies/Extending-Expiration-Date-for-Unused-Travel-Funds/td-p/53293 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
