Cruisegroover Posted July 1, 2021 #79 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Didn't Carnival do this for the cruises up to December earlier this year only to cancel them all. Certainly puts your TA to work ie make changes only to cancel. Do TAs still get a commission on cancelled cruises that didn't have full payment?

That may be a start? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gridlock traffic around LAX is so bad now that you’re looking at 45 minutes or more to drop someone off and get out. They have moved most public access away from the airport and are putting in a sky train. The whole place is a nightmare not to mention the social problems and homeless.

NCTribeFan Posted July 1, 2021 #90 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I'm on the 2/6 Spirit, then the 2/20 Splendor. Well, I thought I was going to be on those. Our TA shared the above notice with us but Carnival hasn't officially cancelled the cruise or notified those of us who aren't OZ residents that we won't be allowed to sail, but we know that's coming. 😪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
