Please help me figure my OBC

[audcc77]

DH and I have booked a 7-day on MG in December. It is a casino deal with $500 OBC.  We paid rate of $914 pp before fees.  My milestone 25 cruise was a few months ago.  Therefore, I can request my Milestone 25 % OBC to be added to my $500 OBC but how much would it be?  Is it only based on my fare?

 

Also, how do I go about getting this additional OBC?

 

Lastly, if we don’t spend it all, can I get refunded $$ through guest services or do I need to do the slot machine thing to get $$ back?

 

Thanks for any help.

I You you  will get back 25 percent  $228.50 in Obc  added to what you have already of what your actual fare was  before taxes and port fees , You must spend it all , no refunds Or you can wait and take it later on a different cruise that cost more such as a journey cruise .. their is a milestone number you need to call and have it applied if this is the cruise you would like to use it ..

Yes.  Definitely wait and hold onto it until you have an expensive fare to apply it too.  I don't remember the end date, but I waited a couple years to use mine.  I think I got close to $950 - although I have to say that is the one time it was a benefit to go solo and have to pay the double fare - got nice OBC!  :)

Wow.  You must have either gone on a really long cruise to get $950 OBC or spent a good amount for a cabin.  
 

I had to laugh when you said to wait for an expensive fare. That IS my expensive fare. LOL. 

 

Normally on Carnival I don’t spend more than $1200 pp cruise rate and that’s pushing it.   I think I am just going to get the $228 and be done.  Since my cabin is $914 pp, waiting until I spend $1200 pp won’t net me much more than a few more dollars. I don’t think. 
 

I have math dislexia (yes, I think it’s a thing) and so I can barely add numbers.  
 

Thanks for your post.  🙂

For the milestone credit it's 25 % OBC based on the cruise fare before taxes and port fees.  Also you mention $500 OBC from the casino.  Usually the casino cash is for free play either slots or chips not OBC to use anywhere on the ship.
