Twinzma Posted July 29, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I canceled a cruise with Carnival last year due to a family member falling ill. I had other relatives too that were traveling in a second cabin which was linked to ours that had also canceled. Could I use the deposit that was used on the second cabin linked to ours as well? I hate to see money go to waste. Even after penalties there's a few hundred sitting in limbo. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the cancellations after the final Payment Deadline? Were the other cabins booked under your credit card? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schazzy Posted July 29, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 29, 2018 If you booked and paid for all the bookings, I would think you should be able to use it all less the penalties as a future cruise credit. If the others booked and paid for their own, it may not be available to you. You probably need to call Carnival and find out for sure. Also, did you get the cancellation emails for both cabins or just yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jamman54 Posted July 29, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Just an additional note. Any future cruise credits that you may have can't be used as a deposit for a new booking. They may be applied to any future cruise that you have booked. In other words, if you don't have a future cruise already booked, you will have to pay the deposit on the new booking. The future cruise credit could then be applied towards the balance of that booking. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have cancelled a cruise just recently and used leftover deposit (after $50 penalty) on deposit of different cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Carnival rep told me he would need to call in to book his next cruise rather than booking online and the future cruise credit would be used towards the deposit.
