You know you're going to buy stuff on the cruise and now it will be 10% off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1girln3boys Posted February 28, 2015 #32 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Thank you so much! My husband has been checking everyday for them. I told him as soon as I saw this this morning and we were able to get 2 $500 ecards and saved $100 for my cruise. Used them to pay most of my balance.

LadyinRedkp Posted February 28, 2015 #33 Share Posted February 28, 2015 With Verizon they are earned automatically. Some CC's, such as Citibank, offer the same thing with their rewards programs. Ray: This from CitiCards: " Carnival Cruise Lines® Gift Certificate Carnival Cruise Lines® "Fun Ships®" visit a wide array of exciting destinations featuring hundreds of shore excursion opportunities. Guests can snorkel or scuba dive in the crystal clear waters of locales such as Cozumel and Grand Cayman or explore more adventurous alternatives like cave tubing in Belize, or kayaking and white water rafting in Alaska. Carnival's 24 ships operate voyages to The Bahamas, Caribbean, Mexican Riviera, Alaska, Hawaii, Panama Canal, New England, Pacific Islands, New Zealand, Canada and Europe. Restrictions apply. Please read the full terms and conditions. Gift Certificates can only be accepted for new bookings. Gift certificates cannot be used for existing reservations, through a Travel Agent, on-board purchases, amenities, or excursions." I'm confused... Many are saying that they can use Carnival Gift Cards as a OBC when you get on the ship? But in the fine print: "Gift certificates cannot be used for existing reservations, through a Travel Agent, on-board purchases, amenities, or excursions."...... Why wouldn't I be able to use on a already booked cruise? Thank you..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mishka422 Posted February 28, 2015 #34 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Those are certificates, not cards. Very different rules. Cards can be used toward an existing booking, for onboard account, among other things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what I can do is use my Citi points on gift cards to somewhere like Lowe's.... and then use those gift cards to buy Carnival gift cards .... ;) Edited February 28, 2015 by LadyinRedkp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampbaby Posted February 28, 2015 #39 Share Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) I chose the eCertificate option both for previous cruise and today. YES, you may use the eCertificate either to pay (or book) a cruise OR apply to sign and sail card. I applied some earlier this month to our sign and sail account. Here, directly from the certificate I received: Carnival Gift Cards can be used on almost anything: towards the purchase of a Carnival cruise, activities/shore excursions, and redeemed onboard toward the Sail & Sign account for gifts, drinks, and fun. Redemption Instructions: To redeem towards the purchase of a Carnival cruise, call 1-800-Carnival or book online at http://www.carnival.com. To redeem towards activities/shore excursions or onboard gifts, drinks and fun, print and bring this e-card to the Guest Services Desk on board your cruise ship so it can be credited towards your Sail & Sign account.

kapcruiser Posted February 28, 2015 #43 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Can verizon be used for deposit and or payment for cruise? I will probably be booking a cruise within final payment date and have to pay for whole cruise then. Also, does email come immediately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Tillie Posted February 28, 2015 #45 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Can verizon be used for deposit and or payment for cruise? I will probably be booking a cruise within final payment date and have to pay for whole cruise then. Also, does email come immediately? You can use the e cards for a deposit on a new cruise, making a payment, paying off your cruise balance, or applying it to your Sail and Sign account once on board. The emails for the E gift cards from Verizon came immediately and I turned around and paid off my cruise on Carnival.com all within 5 minutes. Thanks to the OP. I've been waiting for these to be available again. Just bought $1200 worth of e gift cards (2 - $500 and 2 - $100.) Great way to save $120.
