Sail & Sign Card/ OBC

[agc291]

I know that you can buy funship dollars towards on board credit through Bon Voyage and I know that you need to put a deposit on your S&S card when you board... What I want to know is if you buy $200 towards OBC thats applied to your acct do you have to put down an additional deposit or will the $200 cover the req. deposit? :confused: Thanks!!

I just spoke to Carnival yesturday in regards to this and I was informed that you are not "required" to put anything down on your sign & sail account. It is only "suggested". But you can put whatever amount you want and when your account gets close to that amount you will be informed and requested to add funds to your account.

So if you are a drinker, alchohol or plan on buying soda's or specialty coffees and such then you really need to plan for that cost. Then if you want or plan on "buying" things while on the ship then you also need to factor in those costs.

If you are just doing the what is already paid for and that is it, then you are good for no money needed for OBC.

Don't forget that gratuities will be added to your sign and sail account too.

Unless you prepaid them.

If you have prepair your tips your 200.00 obc is all you need (add later if you need to). If you have not prepaid it will come out of the obc you have on your account.

When do the tips come off of the S&S card if you haven't prepaid?

I know this rarely happens, but if you have OBC left at the end of the cruise, can you cash it out?

[agc291]

They give you a check on the last night of your cruise if you have extra...not sure if this is just for people who use cash or everyone though. Thanks for everyones help

pre pay the gratuity with your agent. I have until 7 days before the cruise to do this.

 

Make your final payment-- then I prepay a tip one pay-- and prepay the 2nd tip the next pay

[MGprincess]

THanks for the advice!
