halfvass Posted January 8, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I am wondering-- The information for shareholder credit states the following: " Only one onboard credit per shareholder-occupied stateroom." My husband and I own it jointly. If we are in separate cabins, each with grandchildren, can we claim it for each cabin? What's your take? We've never been in this situation before. Thanks to the experts! Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Coast Posted January 8, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Assuming you both jointly own the shares if you're with one kid in one cabin and DH in other cabin with other kids then both cabins would get the shareholder OBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West Coast Posted January 8, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 8, 2009 See: this link for full details To answer your question, the shareholder benefit is based on length of cruise (category is not a factor). 6 days or less = $50 7-13 days = $100 14 days or longer = $250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks West Coast. That was my take too. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherylandtk Posted January 8, 2009 #7 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I don't know for certain, but I suspect if you both want to use your jointly held shares on the same cruise for two cabins, that you would jointly have to own at least 200 shares instead of the usual 100. This might be a question best asked of Liza, the woman who takes care of shareholder credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising Gal Posted January 8, 2009 #8 Share Posted January 8, 2009 According to the link, it says the credit applies to cruise dates through January 2009. Does anyone know if this applies beyond this month? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pia1913 Posted January 8, 2009 #9 Share Posted January 8, 2009 According to the link, it says the credit applies to cruise dates through January 2009. Does anyone know if this applies beyond this month? Where did you see that? Stockholder report always says July and each year's report states the same thing; July of the upcoming year.

coiran Posted January 8, 2009 #14 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Our 100 shares are held jointly in a trust - we get the OBC per cabin. I think to each get an OBC you would have to have at least 100 shares in each name. Call Liza and ask her. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjcox9 Posted January 9, 2009 #19 Share Posted January 9, 2009 We have a sailing in February and faxed in the "proof" the other day and have received confirmation of the OBC for that one. I hope they do renew it this year since they've done away with the dividend for the time being. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure made by OBC go way up. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks to anyone who is so kind to reply. cg Yes! As Pia said it is combinable with other OBC now. This changed in February of last year and we were able to take advantage of it on a B2B last September. We have a B2B2B coming up in March and we will also take advantage of it on that.
