Anthony63 Posted March 17, 2015 #3 Share Posted March 17, 2015 100 shares and basically obc. On Board Credit. How much depends on the length of your cruise. Here is a pdf doc from them. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&ei=oCkIVdvILcngoASGx4L4Ag&url=http://phx.corporate-ir.net/External.File%3Fitem%3DUGFyZW50SUQ9MjI0MTc1fENoaWxkSUQ9LTF8VHlwZT0z%26t%3D1&ved=0CDAQFjAB&usg=AFQjCNGsUR6mFf2TOsEDm5Z87e-KM0F0XA&sig2=FpZs549O0wBwgNwJlmBmQA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggprincess2004 Posted March 17, 2015 #4 Share Posted March 17, 2015 100 shares of CCL stock will entitle you to an onboard credit (one per stateroom) each time you sail. The amount of the credit will vary by length of cruise. You must submit the request for each cruise and provide acceptable proof of ownership. If you are a fairly frequent cruiser on any of the CCL owned lines, this is a reall benefit, as it is a tax free "dividend". Our ROI has been outstanding.

Thrak Posted March 17, 2015 #6 Share Posted March 17, 2015 It's well worth holding the required 100 shares of CCL. Remember that this is a per cabin benefit - you can't get it for more than one person per cabin. OBC from CCL Stock Sailings of 6 days or less $50 Sailings of 7 - 13 days $100 Sailings of 14 days or longer $ 250 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astro Flyer Posted March 17, 2015 #9 Share Posted March 17, 2015 How many shares do you need of CCL to get anything and what do you get? Here's the Princess application form containing the info about the program beyond knowing about the required 100 shares. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=317604&d=1403910758 It's not required to use the form & since the program was recently extended to next year they have not updated the form yet so do not be concerned about the dates shown on the form.

seacruise9 Posted March 17, 2015 #10 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Hi, I agree that the shareholder onboard credit is a great benefit. I have owned Carnival corporation stock for many years and have enjoyed the onboard credit on numerous cruises. Unlike some other cruise stock (Royal Caribbean), you are allowed to combine the shareholder credit with other onboard credits. Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drgrinch Posted March 17, 2015 #11 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Additionally, CCL stock has been doing well for the last couple of years. They offer a dividend as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
