Cruises over 30 days long and CCL Stockholder Credit

[luvcruisn']

I have heard that on cruises longer than 30 days, the shareholders stock credit is not given. Has anyone had any experience with this? Why would this be?

 

Thanks for any information.

We cruised for 37 days on the Prinsendam in July and the $250 OBC was given

That's interesting. I had heard that cruises over 30 days, Grand Voyages, and World Voyages did not qualify for the stock credit.

It just states that any cruise 14 days or longer will receive the $250 credit.

 

Bon Voyage & Good Health!

Thanks for the link.

Not wanting to seem uninformed, the person discussing it doesnt really know the answer and so they make it up. :rolleyes:

Thanks for that link. We've not done a 7 or 10 day cruise since we bought the stock, so I didn't realize there were lesser benefits for those. Sounds like a good enough reason to stick with the 14 plus day ones. :)

Can someone advise me as to how to get the CCL onboard credit? I sent my brokerage statement via email to HAL and haven't heard anything since. Any advice would be appreciated- next cruise will be in March.

We send ours by fax, but then have our TA confirm that the credit has been applied. If you don't have a TA, you can check with HAL yourself. We've never had a problem, so even though we don't get a confirmation - they must know what they're doing.

Confirmations can be challenging. Ultimately you can ask when you check in for your cruise.

 

To be sure, bring a brokerage statement with you...if the credit has not been applied by the time you check in...go to the pursers desk onboard and have them straighten it out.

I email mine with the scanned copy of proof of ownership. I ask for an email confirmation once it has been applied. I take the copy of the email with me as HAL seems to like to lose things.

[luvcruisn']

I also e-mail the information for the stock credit, and ask for a confirmation e-mail in return. This time I didn't get the confirmation e-mail directly, but it was on an e-mail from my travel agent. I took that e-mail with me on board, just in case I had problems.

Hi folks

 

What email address are you sending this request to? We send ours to Princess via email and found it to very efficient (btw on Princess you can check it online, wonder why HAL doesn't offer the equivalent).

[prescottbob]

Ahoy!

 

We've emailed our OBC requests over the past several years. Prior to that we just faxed it in.

 

It just a matter of attaching a current brokerage statement reflecting stock ownership (minimum 100 shares). be sure to X out your account #'s, costs & value amounts, etc.

 

The good HAL folks are only interested in having your name on the brokerage house letterhead / statement.

 

Here's where we send it (Karen Stuart) from an old email:

 

You fax it to WCR at 206-281-0627 or e-mail: worldcruisereservations@hollandamerica.com

 

Kind Regards,

Yes, that is the address that I send my e-mail to.

We received the $250. OBC for both the World cruise and SA grand voyage. mygate

[piedmont]

I just returned from a GV (67 days) and we received $250.00 OBC total for our cabin.

 

I believe the rule is you must own 100 shares to get $50.00 OBC for cruises less than 14 days -AND- $250.00 for over 14 days.--PER CABIN--

 

I sent directly to HAL a copy of my confirmation from our stock broker.

 

Have fun
