funatsea01 Posted January 22, 2010 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Could someone clear this up for me, do I only get to submit a price reduction or OBC if the price drops below what I paid if it is advertised only on carnival.com or can I submit my claim if I see it lower on any site. For example expedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G'ma Posted January 22, 2010 #2 Share Posted January 22, 2010 It must be a Carnival advertised price....here, from the Early Saver rules on their website...and the link to it: • What is the price protection assurance feature? If, after booking, you find a lower Carnival advertised fare, Carnival will honor it, issuing the difference in the form of a non-refundable onboard credit. The lower fare must be: i) for the same ship, sailing, stateroom category and number of guests; ii) available for booking at the time you submit your request for the lower rate; and iii) a rate you are eligible to receive, if special restrictions apply. Price protection will be subject to the prevailing fees and/or fuel supplement if applicable. • What is a Carnival advertised fare? A Carnival.com or Carnival advertised fare available to the general public. A Carnival advertised fare excludes group rates, membership programs, charters or other Travel Agent promotions not offered by Carnival to the general public, including but not limited to travel agent rebates. • What should I do once I find a lower rate? Complete a price protection claim form. If the request meets the price protection requirements, we will process your onboard credit for the fare difference and send you an email confirmation within 2 business days of your request http://www.carnival.com/CMS/FAQs/EarlySaver.aspx The only reason you would find a lower fare on other websites is because the seller is returning part of the commission he would normally earn in order to bring the price down. Carnival doesn't honor it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example expedia.com Check the ES Terms & Conditions - the Price Matching only applies to Carnival-Advertised rates (BTW - you'rer not allowed to mention/recommend any TA sites on these Boards). ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
