virginiab Posted October 25, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I had to cancel a cruise (for Nov 2012) that had been booked ES. Now, a few months later, I have used that ES credit to book a new cruise (for Jan 2013) at the current sale price. This new cruise is past final payment date, so I paid it off when I booked it. Can I get price drops on this new cruise, if I see any? It seem like I should be able to do so, but I wonder if anyone has experience with this, and if you had to jump through any hoops to convince Carnival that this new booking should be considered as originally booked ES. Thanks for any help you can give me on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken076 Posted October 25, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Interesting. When you re-book you can re-book at any ofthe currently offered booking rates (most of which would allow price adjustments only up to final Payment date, which you're past). But if ES isn't being offered (but you would like to be able to get price drops up to 2 business days before sailing), I'm not sure how that would work. Booked as you are under the "sale" booking, I'm VERY doubtful you'll be able to get any price drops. Fire wil hopefully have some insight. ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can ask for any upgrades to a category that matches what you paid. If you cancel .. and rebook at another rate .. the ES does not carry over. You are just using the future credit from the previous cruise.. the previous cruise is gone except for this credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virginiab Posted October 26, 2012 Author #4 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Thanks, Firefly! I always consider your answers to be definitive. I'll just relax into the current price and start thinking about what to pack. It feels SO good to have a cruise to look forward to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
