Glory 2/25/17 Cancelled

Wonder what happens to travel expenses when this happens. Flights and shuttles that have been prepaid and non refundable. Any idea?

Can you even book a flight over a year out?

When they cancelled the Magic Journey's Repo Cruise, we only got 50.00 per person OBC to pick a new cruise.

My PVP was able to rebook us on the Splendor and Carnival honored the 99 deposit sale

Thanks for popping back in and letting me know!

Next cruise: Carnival Breeze (June 25,2017)

Sorry to hear those dates on the glory were cancelled - I am leaving with my family on March 12th and I am praying it is out of dry dock by then. Flights booked - no backing out now.

Yours will be the first out of dry dock

I believe since its for next year that is just a regularly scheduled dry dock

She was just in dry dock in 2013 and received all of the 2.0 upgrades at that time. So, I cannot imagine why she would need a dry dock again so soon after. Unusual only after 3 years. We sailed on her in Feb 2014 and she was perfect.

Maybe she needs some technical upgrades or something. :confused:

I wondered, too. Does Carnival give any compensation toward a flight that is non-refundable in this case? That's a huge expense.

Just got the email from Carnival that this sailing as well as the next one is cancelled because Glory is going to dry dock

Hate when that happens.

2013 to 2017 is 4 years.

That's weird Glory already has all the 2.0 updates. Other ships need it worse. Must be mechanical.

I just got off of the Glory after a 21 day cruise and believe me she definitely needs a dry dock.

It was in terrible shape...rust EVERYWHERE, almost every tile in lido buffet was cracked or broken, about half of the tiles around the azure pool under the sliding dome were missing, MDR booth seats cloth was so bare there were holes, carpet faded and bleach spots, chairs in walkways were bare and worn, that is just a few examples.

Glad it is getting a dry dock, it definitely needs it!

They do not refund your flights. Best bet would be to get your full cruise refund and book a sailing from the same port same time, or a port you can shuttle to. Travel insurance would cover the cancellation though, some policies anyway. Some airlines will change your flights you just pay the difference or a change fee.

Sorry....I misread it. Thought it was this year they were putting her into dry dock.
