mz-s Posted May 26, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 26, 2023 No you will not receive any recognition on Carnival. It has been a long time since I've seen any single supplement sales on Carnival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted May 26, 2023 #3 Share Posted May 26, 2023 there is no status transfer between princess and carnival, it is two different cruise line status 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stobe1 Posted May 26, 2023 #4 Share Posted May 26, 2023 I wish there was "status portability" between Carnival Corp brands. I know it is a sore subject for some cruisers. We are Platinum on Carnival, just a cruise or two away from Diamond. We are going on the HAL Amazon cruise next year and it would be nice to take our status with us to HAL. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though we did not get any extra status on our first HAL cruise, we were invited to the past guest party. I assume this was because either our past sailings on either Princess, Carnival, or possibly both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocolate melting cake Posted May 26, 2023 #6 Share Posted May 26, 2023 If you have 100+ shares of Carnival stock and have been getting OBC on Princess, you can claim it on Carnival also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunonfire Posted May 26, 2023 #7 Share Posted May 26, 2023 The Sun Princess looks really nice much better than their Royal ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribensun Posted May 29, 2023 #8 Share Posted May 29, 2023 First Carnival mostly Princess. I now prefer Carnival after being on nearly every Princess ship. The outdoor movie is so much better in sound and viewing. Like that you can get your own drinks, frozen yogurt/ ice cream and it’s edible! They have Gelato at lunch that is free and just as good as Princess Royal class ships that you pay for. Popcorn is better. Like having at least Pizza available until very late and personally better than Alfredo’s. Like all food choices. no masks needed and didn’t feel as though I might get sick, unlike Princess and didn’t hear of any quarantine. Liked all the fun and rooms and the bathrooms bigger, shower bigger. Balcony room is definitely better than Princess balcony even deluxe balcony room. A real type miniature golf course. The crew I felt bent over backwards to make sure cruise was good and issues taken care of. Very impressed and didn’t expect to want to cruise Carnival again.

We have done 14 cruises: 11 on Carnival, two on Ocean Village, and one on Caribbean Princess.Every one of them a Carnival Corp. ship! Yet no portability among them: ridiculous... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Honolulu Blue Posted May 29, 2023 #11 Share Posted May 29, 2023 @Aplmac: Your reference to Ocean Village threw me for a bit. But then I did an online search. It's a very interesting story. Thank you for the diversion. 👍 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
