Two questions

[JeanieCM]

1)  We were wanting to go to Hawaii in Winter, 2020.  Has the full slate of itineraries been posted by HAL?

Because it looks like we'd have to wait until March before a HAL ship sails there?  

 

2)  We did a 6 day Carnival cruise in 2013.  Would we be able to credit that cruise towards our HAL mariner

points?

Loyalty points are not interchangeable between cruise lines.  HAL & Carnival are two separate cruise lines.  

 

That said, if you cruise Carnival before you cruise HAL, HAL will consider you a one star Mariner (for perks) but with no cruise days.

I don’t believe Carnival Corporation currently allows you to apply points / cruises from one of their lines to the others (Carnival, Holland America, Princess, Cunard, Costa, etc.). Royal Caribbean does allow you to combine your cruises / points from their main lines - Royal Caribbean, Celebrity and Azamara. MSC will match whatever level you have on other lines.

Since you have cruised on Carnival, you are considered a 1 Star Mariner and should be invited to the Mariner's brunch which is held near the end of the cruise.

 

Check at the front office to make certain you are on the invite list -- do this on day 2 or 3 of your cruise.

According to their signature they have been on 3 HAL cruises already for a total of 45 days. That would make them 2* without any spending or suite bonus credits considered.

Well, then, the answer would be "no".
