ManyMore Posted May 30, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 30, 2018 We were forced to cancel our cruise and now we have Carnival gift cards we aren't going to be able to use. I'm trying to find out what to do with them. I can't lose all that money, have been collecting them for a while now. I even have some that are $25 that they don't do any more. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicoCA Posted May 30, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 30, 2018 I'll take $1000 worth for $700 if that helps you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bnorris10 Posted May 30, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Why can't you just schedule another cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoutfinch72 Posted May 30, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 30, 2018 The only thing you really can do is try to sell them for a discount. This is one of the reasons I caution people about collecting gift cards to pay for vacation expenses. You will always be refunded in the same form of payment if you cancel so if you won’t be able to use the gift cards in the future then it’s not really worth the discount you got upfront. ETA: my answer assumes you can’t book another cruise for some reason. That would obviously be the preferred way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlazinSunsets Posted May 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Sell it online. You can check the gift card sites, they usually give you 80-90% on your balance. If you bought them with the aarp or kroger/ebay sales then you come out pretty even. If not then you take a lil loss unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManyMore Posted May 31, 2018 Author #7 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I agree booking another would be ideal but that is not possible in our situation. Also, I don't have a $1000, I believe I have $500 or so. I would have to check if someone was actually interested in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
