Okay, it appears they offered a future credit, not a refund. I get why they may not accept that. BUT - there is still something missing here. Hard to even call this a scam, unless the new person in the cabin did it. Nobody else would gain one cent from this happening. Nothing. Not a scam. As to Carnival being at fault. Nope. If I post my bank account info online, the bank is not at fault. Right? Same thing here. I am rather surprised that an email would not come from Carnival confirming the change in reservation status. Why would someone do this? Maybe someone dislikes her so much, they did it. Maybe someone has nothing else to do and decided to mess with her. Maybe someone wanted that cabin, and did it. Maybe Carnival messed up and cancelled it - though they say they did not. Again, there is more to this story that we are not hearing about.

You can get all of her public posts about this from FB. Just search on her name found in the news article above. https://www.facebook.com/tiffanyjoannbanks

There is more to this story. Surprised they did not get an cancel email. Carnival offered to give all their cruise money back. They said no. We are not seeing something here.

Sorry, I was assuming you could buy some good wine locally just before boarding the ship

Why not bring it onboard with you and avoid the taxes?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Coin in and money spent are two very different things.

We do two bottles and drink it in the room and or fill a glass to carry when are out and about. You can also carry your glasses of wine to the restaurant. Rest might charge corkage fee.

I find the burgers as "basic". Much prefer (insert almost any fast food here). BUT - that breakfast burger is really good, and very filling.

It is per cabin. You will not have any problem.

And, with just a handful of suites to start with, not many are going to win, at any price.

we are 70 and going on #3. Should be fine.

Actually,, some like NCL do count casino/comp cruises. After all, in the end, many gamblers pay more than others - LOL!

the port will be open soon. Very soon. Bridge rebuild? Years.

We have done 20+ cruises. Never did laundry onboard. And most of them we did carry on only. Guess we just are different or weird. (okay, we have hung bathing suits and coverups in the shower)

YMMV For sure. The airline is not obligate to get you on the next flight at all. You missed it. Next flight could be full, or ask you to pay current fare. Sometimes it works out - but not always
