How do you apply a Carnival Gift Card to account

[aubreyc1988]

I am cruising in 13 days and need to add a Carnival Gift Card to my account - I have already paid for the cruise in full, and when I called my PVP he said that he couldnt add my gift card to my account as OBC, but that I needed to that on the ship.

 

Is this correct? Really hope I can use this for my upcoming cruise!

You can do it at guest services or the self service kiosk

Your PVP is correct, you can apply the amount of your gift to your S&S account when board the ship either at Guest Services or the Self Service Kiosk....easy peasy either way.

On my last cruise, I selected cash account when I did my online check-in, and before I was onboard, when we were checking in to get keys, they added my gift card on at that point..... so easy! Hope u enjoy ur cruise!!!

If a GC is used on board can you get cash out with it from the kiosk? Also if you don't use it all is a new GC issued or do you get a check like with cash?

I know it wouldn't make a lot of sense to do so, but can you purchase Cruise Cash with a gift card online?

IDK about getting cash out of kiosk..... but on my last cruise I was giving cash back at the end from what I didn't use of my gift cards.... it was only like $30.

I believe u can but ur right it doesn't make a lot of sense..... and with the Cruise Cash if I'm not mistaken it is non-refundable so If u don't use it all ur SOL..... but I could be mistaken.

I don't know about getting it out of the kiosk, but you can cash it out at the casino. Go to a slot machine, enter your S&S card, and charge the amount you want to your room. I check my balance before going to the casino. I think it was increments of $5. You can then select cash out and take the slip to the cashier. I did this on my last cruise with my $210 so I didn't have to wait for a check to be mailed to me.
