devinc Posted December 10, 2020 #1 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Tried to search this with no luck... We have a cabin for three booked and paid for but only two will be able to make it due to a school schedule change. Is it best to call and notify them or have the third no show? And, if no show, do we tell them at embarkation? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted December 10, 2020 #3 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Depends on when the sailing is. Assuming you have paid in full, your cruise may be in the next cancellation window. If you paid it all because because you were rebooking a cancelled cruise but are not in the final payment window, you will get the third person's money back. It may mean they move you to a cabin for only two. But with reduced capacity rules still uncertain they might leave you in the same cabin. Best to call and ask.

dallasdan Posted December 10, 2020 #4 Share Posted December 10, 2020 I would have them be a no show at embarkation. You will be reimbursed for port fees/taxes and gratuities if pre-paid. We have a 3 person room booked on Panorama in Havana area. 3rd person may not go, however, there not any Havana rooms left, so we will let her be a no show.

loanshark Posted December 11, 2020 #5 Share Posted December 11, 2020 The answer to the original poster's question really depends on when they are scheduled to cruise, whether or not the sailing they are on is likely to be cancelled by Carnival due to covid, what rate they are booked under, and whether or not the deposit on a 3rd person is refundable or non-refundable. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare lazydayz Posted December 11, 2020 #7 Share Posted December 11, 2020 I agree you should call Carnival. If the third person can get a refund, and you can keep the same room, that would be ideal. If not, don't do anything as the cruise could get cancelled and everyone gets their money back. If the cruise sails, as others noted, the taxes and fees would still be refunded for the third person who doesn't show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devinc Posted December 12, 2020 Author #9 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Thank you for the replies. It is in Jan 2021. Its a Havana Cabana and they only offer two of those for three pax. The port fees and grats total more than thirds fare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolSW Posted December 12, 2020 #10 Share Posted December 12, 2020 We usually cruise this very week right before Christmas every year. One year we planned to take my adult son, staying in the same cabin with us. He was unable to go at the last minute. We told them at check-in, but that was it, He was just a no-show, and we ate the cost of his cruise. Unfortunate things happen, and we just accepted it. I don’t recall receiving a refund on port charges, but that would have been minimal compared to the cost of the cruise. We understood that it is reasonable and just that we still had to pay the cost of his cruise. Not saying anyone here is disputing that. I think we are all pretty much in agreement. Wish we could ALL be getting ready to board right now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thx If you have a rare Havana for 3 and you cancel the 3rd person before the sailing, you have a higher chance for being moved to a 2 person Havana cabin. If you do nothing and tell them on board (or not, if you tell GS they aren't showing up, it will save them some work trying to see if they are onboard), you will not be re-assigned at last minute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loanshark Posted December 12, 2020 #14 Share Posted December 12, 2020 For a cruise that is still over a year out, I would call them and ask them what would happen if you cancel the 3rd person. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Essiesmom Posted December 13, 2020 #16 Share Posted December 13, 2020 But if you have a rare cabin for 3, because you were to have three...Would it matter to you if to be moved to a cabin for 2? Is there anything else special about this particular cabin? EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
