jillmom2 Posted March 20, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I have booked 4 cabins for our upcoming cruise and paid for all 4 of them. I booked under early saver and have gotten several price drops on two of the four cabins. ( about $150.00 each room)I am not staying in the rooms that have the credits, however everyone sailing agrees that they want me to have the OBC since I paid. (We are each paying our own accounts onboard.) My question is can we move OBC to my account once onboard or does it stay with the person/cabin it was given to when I put in for early saver. If they wont move it , is there a way to cash it out like in the casino and then take cash to guest service and apply it where we need it to go.? Never had to deal with this before so not sure what is possible, if at all...thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FantasyLineAddict Posted March 20, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 20, 2011 From my experience, the OBCs stay with you because you paid. If you authorize anyone else to your onboard account, they have access also. Clarify this at check-in, but you should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one suite , one balcony and 2 inside cabins, the price drop is with the inside cabins. I am in the suite. When I called Carnival, they said the OBC was on the inside rooms and listed with the person(s) whose fare had dropped...they didnt seem to care who paid for the rooms initially. I asked if it could be assigned to my room (the suite) and they said no. However, I was wondering if they will move it if both myself and the person who is in the inside room request it once onboard as Carnival shouldnt care what we do with our OBC ...We will have separate sign and sail accounts onboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FantasyLineAddict Posted March 20, 2011 #4 Share Posted March 20, 2011 It seems you can talk to 5 people at Carnival and get 5 answers. I am positive they can switch them all to your onboard account. When I checked in, they verified it for me (had $120 early saver each from 2 cabins). This might have changed with the new kiosk system in some terminals - when I was in Miami last month, the check-in people were basically only there to hand out S&S cards. You might have to go to the purser desk with your entire party, which would be a pain - even if you wanted to do the casino thing, you'd still want to verify where the OBCs are attached. To get the money back in the casino, what you do is use the person's S&S card to place that amount in credits on a machine. Then you cash out on the machine and take your cash-out slip to the cashier and receive cash. You could then take the cash to the purser and have it credited to your onboard account.

MissDiva1 Posted March 20, 2011 #5 Share Posted March 20, 2011 Nope it does not matter if you paid for said cabins. OBC goes to each cabin per person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it sounds like I may be stuck with the casino cash out if nothing else works...and I can keep the cash or apply it to my account... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy4Koko Posted March 20, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 20, 2011 just of the Inspiration and every OBC applied to our room was on my credit card because it was my credit card that paid the bill for Mom and I.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
