LMHSRN Posted May 4, 2007 #53 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Stoneyard - and your point is? 100 shares or, lets say $5,000.00 gets all the same benifits you do. Actualy, we probably lost less than you did when the stock took a downward slide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoneyard Posted May 4, 2007 #54 Share Posted May 4, 2007 The point is... you can buy 10 three day inside cabin cruises for little more than half of what 100 shares of CCL should be selling for and earn Platinum status. That is PURE working capital. Carnival carried 7,008,000 passengers last year for which I made a total dividend of $1.08 per share after earnings of $2.77. So they get a lot more mileage out of my ownership than the profit from a few cruisers. I would think that as a Owner Of The Company my investment would be worth at least VIP boarding...which is all I suggested in my original statement and AGAIN would cost them nothing. PS for the privilege of $100 OBC I was rewarded with a $4500 drop in the value of my investment. At least my RCL is holding steady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voyagerfl Posted May 4, 2007 #55 Share Posted May 4, 2007 LMHSRN, are we talking about the same thing here???? This thread refers specifically to the complimentary SHAREHOLDERS BENEFIT, not coupons or other forms of OBC. If you are expecting this kind of OBC (shareholders) you may want to read the terms, conditions and limitations applicable to THIS PARTICULAR OBC. Just click on the link I provided. So are they correct in saying that if you use an Entertainment book coupon you would lose the Shareholder OBC.....that does not make much sense...??

LMHSRN Posted May 4, 2007 #56 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Nope. I got both! You use the coupon when you book and you send in the shareholders information a couple of week later. No problem! Someone in an earlier thread gave the fax number to send the information to. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Entertainment coupon gives you a discount on the price of the booking, the shareholder benefit gives you complimentary On Board Credit.

LMHSRN Posted May 4, 2007 #59 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I read it, several times, and so? That means you and only you are correct? Check it out with Carnival and then be the expert! Different days, different moods, different person implementing the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiling Cruiser Posted May 4, 2007 #60 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Perhaps x number of stock shares could equal one sailing and everyone could be happy. The more shares, the more credit. A minimum number of sails before you're able to start counting shares as part of your eligibility? But what happens if you sell your shares? Do you lose your status? Just some things to think about. I'm Ok with using sailings. Just 2 more to go. Also have stock, so that works for me, too. However you board, HAPPY SAILS TO ALL :) :) ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
