Theresa522 Posted March 31, 2008 #54 Share Posted March 31, 2008 We cruise in July but I have already paid it off. How will they refund me? Here is another stock link, so it is official. http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/080331/clm289.html?.v=1 Press Release Source: Carnival Corporation & plc Carnival Corporation & plc to Voluntarily Rescind Fuel Supplement for Guests Booked Prior to November 7, 2007 Monday March 31, 6:01 pm ET MIAMI, March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK) has announced a voluntary refund of the company's fuel supplement for applicable U.S. bookings that were made prior to November 7, 2007, under an agreement with the Florida Attorney General's Office. The fuel supplement, announced November 7, 2007, was applied to all U.S. bookings for voyages departing on or after February 1, 2008, regardless of when the booking was made, for cruises on the Carnival Corporation & plc brands Carnival Cruise Lines, Costa Cruises, Cunard Line, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises and The Yachts of Seabourn. However, this effective date allowed guests already booked at the time of the announcement the opportunity to cancel and receive a full refund. The company will now refund the fuel supplement for those guests who were already booked at the time the supplement was announced. Refunds for affected guests will be implemented based on cruise departure date according to the following schedule: -- For cruises departing on or prior to April 4, 2008, guests will receive a refund in the same form they used to purchase their cruise. -- For cruises departing from April 5, 2008 through June 23, 2008, guests will receive an on-board credit. -- For cruises departing on or after June 24, 2008, guests' bookings will be adjusted to remove the supplement. The fuel supplement remains in effect for all bookings made on or after November 7, 2007. The $5 per person per day fuel supplement applies only to the first and second guests in a stateroom and will not exceed $70 per person per voyage. Also, at the time the fuel supplement was announced, travel agents whose clients had existing reservations were offered $10 per booking in administrative compensation for notifying those clients of the supplement. Those travel agents will still receive the $10 per booking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nybumpkin Posted April 1, 2008 #67 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Yes, and thanks to another thread that reminded me about specific drink costs, that OBC will buy me 14.7368 drinks of my favorite Dewar's White Label! :D I like your way of thinking! Is that single or double?:D We should have a $140 credit on our credit card for our Valor cruise back in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truecruiser Posted April 1, 2008 #73 Share Posted April 1, 2008 great news! thank you for posting this, paul. question: has anyone gotten it knocked off yet? i just called my guy at carnival. i booked my miracle cruise (2 cabins) in april 2007 so, i was hit with this retroactive fuel surcharge to the tune of $160 ($80 each cabin). he indicated that the adjustments are being handled by a separate department and that it will show up on my bookings -- it could take one or two days or, it cld take a week. he was not sure at this point since this has all just occurred. in any event, he advised that he will generate new invoices showing a new balance due less the $160, as soon as they are reflected in the computer. sounds fair enough to me, but i am curious all the same if anyone's pvp/cvs went into their booking and adjusted it on the spot.

When I checked mine just a bit ago I hadn't gotten my OBC yet, but I'm sure it will be on there in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyToes1978 Posted April 1, 2008 #75 Share Posted April 1, 2008 This is great news. Hopefully this will help offset some of the outrageous airfare, since we won't be getting ours in the form of OBC, I don't think. Too far out! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
