What is the largest OBC you have gotten ?

[File13]

$400.00 OBC and an upgrade from 8E to 8K booked ES. We couldn't believe it. We check the site at least 2x a day to see if the price drops any more.:cool:

[joebat1]

I was just wondering what the largest OBC you have gotten from booking your cruise to your actual cruise sail date. Thanks

 

Zero, never asked or tried. Once I book, it's a done deal, I'm a happy camper...errrr cruiser. On several occasions I have received a credit on my CC for missed ports. A surprise indeed, as I have never expected or asked for them ~~!!~~

Just got back today from our Miracle cruise we had $560.00 OBC spent all of that plus some walked off the ship only with a $80.00 tab.:D

[tampabrat22]

The most we ever received was $100 when we cruised as groups, and I was over the top happy with that! I wish I could get OBC's like these!!

[Tiffanyiris]

so far we are at a $280 OBC for our cruise in 16 days!! i submitted for another $60 due to Resident Rates so hopefully by tomorrow (being the 3rd business day) we'll find out if we got it. i dont see why not though!

[Ga webbs]

So far we are up to $570 for our cruise in 22 days.:):) Still looking every day to see if i can top $600.:D:D

[Irishlinny]

$640 on our upcoming Miracle cruise for our suite! $100 taken off before final payment and $540 waiting for us as OBC:D

We had $220 on our 4 day cruise last summer. A lot of you guys have done very well!! I hope our summer one continues to drop! For now we just upgraded and then added another room so we don't have to share with our kids. Now I'm ready so see our fares go down in our two staterooms!

Had a $560.00 obc on the Dream 4/17/10...Really a great cruise and great deal!

[adpilove]

Are these outrageous OBC's for bookings in Balconies and higher? I can't imagine how they'd go any lower than $569 for a oceanview room.

[dec2007w3boys]

Nov 2008 - went from one room for four to two rooms for 2 (kids ended up with their own room) and received $360 obc. This was before early saver, when they would honor lower prices. I was happy!

[deepnite10]

upon calling in to take care of our final payment we were informed our

cruise had gone down in price..the compensation amounted to $650..

 

we received a $400 price adjustment to our final payment and a

$250 OBC..:)

[BND]

On Carnival, like $120. On RCI, around $200.

Mine was $360 for 2 an it was an inside cabin!!

[PaulMedik]

We had over $1300 OBC for our Dream cruise earlier this month between our two cabins. $100 was from future cruise credit. $100 was from shareholders. The remainder was from missing one port which I think was $7.16 each, and from ES price drops. It really does pay to book ES. :)

 

We've had similar amounts on previous cruises prior to ES.

 

Don't ask me how we spent over $2800 on our Sail & Sign....:confused:

 

[Litewait]

All I can saw is WOW!! Good for you!

[bcs819]

holy cow! That's crazy. Our Sign and Sail is usually around $600 for both of us and that includes auto-tips!!!!!!

I paid $359 pp for a 6C OV on my Glory cruise last fall.

Wow, really? That's what we have! We have the 6C and paid $579 but its only come down like $20. Hmmm..........was that a 7 day cruise?

This is AMAZING!! Good for you. Maybe that's why you spent so much money because you knew you had lots of credits. How many people were you paying? :) Lots of drinks or gambling?

 

I have a question, what is this shareholder OBC you received? And what kind of room did you guys have? You inspire me!!

[MamaParrotHead]

Yup, 7 day Western on Glory. Not that I ever expect to see those kinds of prices again, but it was NICE.

adpilove,

 

The shareholder OBC is from owning a minimum of 100 shares of CCL stock. You just send in proof of ownership and they apply the credit.

 

The S&S is from myself, my wife, and our three sons. Expenses included auto tips for five ($350), drinks for five (We opted to activate our sons' S&S cards instead of soda cards and they actually did not go over what the soda card cost would have been), Spa couples package, Spa treatments, (Spa $ was over 1K) pictures (We bought 23 Carnival pics), and Funshop purchases.

 

All of our casino expenses were cash $ and not on S&S card; casino winings would have nearly wiped out our total S&S! :cool: We played mostly blackjack though Karen did play slots one day.

 

Karen and I were in an aft wrap 9C #6492. Our sons were in an 8B #6435. The 8B is where ALL of the OBC from ES came from because the 9C sold out early.

[newcruiser08820]

We are leaving on Miracle in two weeks with $ 830 OBC ( $ 100 for 100 share and the rest due to ES rate drop). We have booked two 4k cabins.

So happy - never had OBC before!

Not bad.....We had no obc and our bill was almost $1,000 mostly from the bar.:eek:

Except we have to minus the gratuities.
