pc_load_letter Posted June 15, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Not able to reach three ports, the Splendor is now here in San Diego. Looks like Carnival is doing the right thing though and giving everyone a free cruise and $200 shipboard credit... http://www.kusi.com/carnival-splendor-diverted-to-san-diego-as-hurricane-bud-approaches-coast-of-puerto-vallarta/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobandsherry Posted June 15, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Seems decent of Carnival, which that happened to me... I'm sure someone will have some negative to say to slam Carnival though. Sent from my LG-H872 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoDidly Posted June 15, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Whoa ! that's an amazing plus for Carnival considering all the ports missed in the past for hurricanes . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury me at sea Posted June 15, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Glad to know you're all safe, even though disappointed. I agree Carnival is doing well by you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickrate Posted June 15, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I feel Carnival is doing more than"well"! They have no control over hurricanes and are losing $$$. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April42749 Posted June 15, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Carnival is ok in my book. We missed a port on the Horizon last week due to a medical emergency. They gave us 20% off a future cruise. Is Carnival reimbursing them for this cruise? Or a free future cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winddawn Posted June 15, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Glad to hear Carnival is taking proactive steps to keep everyone safe and happy. Of course no one wants their cruise to be affected but glad to hear Carnival is taking care of their customers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzybell1960 Posted June 16, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Its refreshing to hear about a business, Carnival, that responded quickly and imo offered good compensation to their paying clients. From the medical emergency to hurricane Bud, none of this was Carnivals "fault" but by all accounts, they stepped up to the plate. We haven't sailed with Carnival, but have 2 upcoming Mexico cruises booked with them. As a customer, I am very happy to see Carnivals prompt reaction & good compensation for what happened to the passengers on the Splendor this week.

TMarg Posted June 16, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 16, 2018 So impressed with Carnival. My son is on the ship with 40 plus of his Senior Grad Classmates and is having a blast. Way to go with the cruise credit and the $200 onboard shipboard credit per room. We will definitely sail on Carnival again. GREAT JOB CARNIVAL !!

mara93 Posted June 16, 2018 #11 Share Posted June 16, 2018 From my understanding, it was 50% off a future cruise & $200 OBC. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMarg Posted June 16, 2018 #12 Share Posted June 16, 2018 From my understanding, it was 50% off a future cruise & $200 OBC. Sent from my iPhone using Forums It was originally 50% off a future cruise when they first cancelled Cabo and PV, but when the ship couldn't make it into Catalina, it changed to 100% cruise credit. It is non-transferable though, but thats OK. Happy Cruising !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momof4girls Posted June 16, 2018 #14 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Wow...that is very generous! I thought during hurricane season that it's "the risk you take" with cruising. Pretty nice of Carnival...I wouldn't mind a "cruise to nowhere", $200 credit, AND another cruise all for the price of one cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JenniVamp Posted June 17, 2018 #15 Share Posted June 17, 2018 We were on this cruise and although it wasn't the relaxing vacation that we'd hoped for, Carnival took a difficult situation and really wowed us with their handling. We opted to stay on board for the duration, and the last two days of the cruise were amazing. We made sure to tell the crew members how much we appreciated their positive attitude, as it made it so much easier for us to remain positive. Half the passengers debarked in San Diego on Thursday, and we had a nearly empty ship for the last two days of the cruise. One of the things Carnival did was to make the arcade "free" and while I spent Friday in a wonderfully empty spa, my husband was able to entertain the kids in the arcade. I loved having extra time to chat with crew members without feeling like I was keeping them from helping other passengers. It was nice! Even better was getting home and booking a "do-over" cruise that is giving us the chance to sail on the Vista in January! Yay for a free cruise!
