shareholder benefit

[illinoisfive]

Carnival Corporation's website states under Shareholder Benefit that "anyone traveling under a reduced rate or complimentary rate are excluded from the benefit".

With all of the constant sales on the Carnival website, how does anyone ever qualify to receive the Shareholder Benefit? People post all of the time that they receive the benefit and I don't understand how this can be with all of the Carnival sales on the website.

Maybe John Herald could reply? I don't have facebook so it would be nice to hear from him here on this board?

I have never had a problem getting the benefit. I think it refers more to the reduced rate such as travel agents get, group bookings, etc. I guess they could get particular, but then probably no one would qualify.

We've never had a problem having our shareholders OBC put on with sales of casino deals etc That said if it became a problem I'd be pissed

 

But just with the OBC since owning Stock we've made more then any Interest in a bank etc Way Ahead 👍👍😜😜🍹🍹

We've been able to get Shareholder's OBC with casino, group, milestone and even a $25 reduced Platinum rate. It's interline rates that won't allow the OBC.

well we were denied with a Pack N Play promotion.

I double anyone pays full brochure rate for a cruise so with their website wording they should be turning down the majority of requests.

We put in for our benefit on all the cruises we take and have been able to receive them. Put in for them and let Carnival check and see if you are able to get them.

Call and ask their reasoning. We've gotten the OBC on last minute guarantee rates.

Get casino deals and ALWAYS get the credit.

I've booked under a lot of different promotions and sales rates and have never been denied the shareholder OBC, even with some pretty drastic discounts.

[Frank12]

Never been denied. Even with a pack-n-play rate of $50.00 per person for a four night cruise with $100.00 OBC. Basically free and we got our $50.00 shareholder benefit. They paid us to cruise! :D

We always get the OBC even on group and interline rates.
