Yet Another FCC, Gift Card Question...

[vinsheer]

I, like many of you have Cancelled and Rebooked many cruises this year. I have mostly been using Carnival Gift Cards without any problem. Most recently my Radiance Cruise was cancelled. So I proceeded to do what I usually do and found another Cruise I wanted and put it on "Hold" for the transfer. Then I usually call into Carnival and everything is transferred over easy, peasy. Right now though for the last few days it has been almost impossible to get through with all that's going on at Carnival and they have this new feature that basically throws you off saying due to the high volume of calls to call back later. Then there is Labor Day. Will they even answer phones tomorrow? So I am thinking about going ahead and taking it off "Hold" by actually booking it with more Gift Cards for the $300. deposit and then using the online form to transfer over. It's been awhile since I've done this and my new Cruise will be $320. LESS than the one they Cancelled. OK, finally My Question is: Will Carnival return the overage $320. back to me in a Gift Card or add it to my OBC which I really don't need more of?

Use the online form and request transfer to your on hold cruise.  There is no need to call or pay.

I avoid calling at all costs, as the repetitive hold recording is like fingernails scraping on a blackboard to me….
