Ok, I want to set up acct using cash.  I have $250 OBC already, do I have to add additional cash at boarding?  TIA

• Guests may activate their Sail & Sign account on Carnival.com, My Cruise Manager, Online Check-in, or on the first day of the cruise at embarkation.
• Guests must deposit cash (USD currency only) or Traveler's Checks (USD currency only) at Guest Services on the first day of the cruise. The following minimum cash deposits are recommended:
  • 2 - 4 day cruise: $100 USD per person
  • 5 - 8 day cruise: $200 USD per person
  • 9 days or longer: $350 USD per person
• Guests may add additional cash to their account by visiting the Guest Services desk on board.

I already saw this but as I mentioned I already have $250 obc, so I should be good right?

Yes you can just use the OBC as your "cash" initial deposit. I have done that before.

There is no absolute requirement to put anything on your S&S account.  If it were me, I would just watch my account and go use the kiosk to add cash as necessary (you cannot continue to spend once you run out of money).

Awesome!  Thanks everyone!

I do this on every cruise.  I set up the account as a cash account and add money at a kiosk during the week.  I will usually wait till later in the week to add a credit card if I am running low on cash or having a losing week in the casino.

yes you will be good to start off. remember the gratuities get added the second to last night and depending on your cruise length they might put you over your limit. Plus if you don't want to be one of the people getting paged over the speaker keep an eye on your folio account amount.

Yes. I always get cruise cash so I have OBC when I board. Then I watch it and add cash as needed

If you're not good, you and everyone of the ship will know when they call your name overhead.
