Shareholders Benefits

[Southoffranceman]

I wonder if someone can help.

 

A holder of at least 100 Carnival Corp plc is entitled to shareholder benefits

 

For Costa these are 75€ per cabin forA 7 DAY-13 day cruise

 

However it says

 

" This benefit is not transferable, cannot be exchanged for cash and, cannot be used for casino credits/charges and gratuities charged to your onboard account. Only one onboard credit per shareholder-occupied stateroom"

 

Any ideas what it can be used for ?

I am using shareholders benefit for years and can say that you have many other possibilities to spend it: drinks in bar, excursions or transfers bought on ship, spa (including pass to thermal area) ...

You can spend it also in one of shops on the ship.

Thank you...so you cannot use it for tips or anything in the casino but it can be used for all other spending.

My last cruise, I had a Brindiamo package and paid HSC in cash, everything else I used was covered by OBC, I paid nothing extra.

The cruise before that I didn't have a drink package (group booking) but I still paid very little beyond HSC.
