Carnival is now allowing cancellations past January14th

[cruisingguy007]

Is it cancellations only or are they offering changes as well? Like say changing dates or changing ships without penalty, has anyone done this?

Sailing Mardi Gras 1/22...I purchased the Cheers package with a GC...does anyone know how they handle that if I decide to cancel? Does it go back on the GC?

I just completed the form to cancel my 1/29 Panorama cruise.  On Carnival’s website it didn’t have anything to acknowledge the cancellation, but I did get an email confirming my request to cancel and saying their hard-working staff working from home are processing these many cancellation requests.

 

Although I cancelled this cruise outside the penalty several months ago, last week I got an e-mail to reconsider for $10 per day on the PANORAMA ! $201.86 TOTAL  including all port and tax fees ! Can you say DESPERATE ?

No, they’re just offering cancellations.

We changed our February Panorama to April with no penalties ..just have to pay 130 dollars extra because the cruise fair is higher in April ( kept cheers promotion and obc) . We did go through our PVP so maybe that makes a difference

Yes, going through your PVP made the difference.  The on-line form was very simple, just offering cancelations. .

I am holding out on my 2/26 Panorama Cruise. Perhaps it wont be crowded.

Was just thinking that about our February 20 cruise!

I'd take that. Even if things went a bit sideways, that price is worth simply being on the ocean relaxing, especially if just an adult trip without kids. They'd be pissed though if we cruised without them..lol. They love it as much as we do and can't wait to cruise agian.

Found a price I like and the cabins I want but the dang Carnival booking engine is acting strange. It lets me get all the way through to the end and then, bam! White blank page. Hit reaload, it shows for a half a second and then goes white. It's very strange. Trying to put it on hold so I can call and see if I can transfer my booking/monies over.

I got: The information you submitted indicates that your cruise is scheduled to operate and is not eligible for a full refund. Normal cancellation fees will apply.

 

I get this same message when I check it from my phone, but I get the option to cancel my 1/22 cruise when I check on a computer. I still don't know what to do, my brain says cancel but my heart says go 😞

[Crismess669]

Still getting that “not eligible for refund” message on a PC. 2/3. God getting this cruise off my mind would spare me so much anxiety.

We are on that cruise as well.  We snagged a suite for $500/pp.  Not sure what to do.

We decided to wait another week and see how this goes. This isn't the most expensive vacation but I still don't want to feel like I wasted my money. Everything from the cruise to the fights were dirt cheap. However, I want the most bang for my buck.

Same here.  Waiting a few more days to decide.

Would somebody be able to link this form? Carnival has hidden any suggestion of cancellation on my booking.

It's at the very top of the main carnival.com page in the "Update" header. Cancellation Preference | Carnival Cruise Lines

Filled out the form for our 1/23 Pride sailing....now we wait.   Thanks for posting this, as I was not aware...big relief for us.

I see. Still not allowed to cancel. Thanks!

[Cruisesfun65]

We're sitting it out. Cruising end of February. 

Either Carnival cancels and we get some OBC, or they offer refunds/FCC or the situation improved and we'll have a fabulous cruise.

I’m getting the ineligible message for 2/19 on Mardi Gras *sigh*

Form seems to be broken now. Last night when I plugged in information for our Jan. 29th cruise on Vista it showed that we could get a full refund. 

 

Just tried it now and I can't get past the date part. It keeps highlighting in red that "Sail Date Must Be Valid". So I started inputting earlier dates in January including for this weekend and same thing...."Sail Date Must Be Valid".

 

Anyone else encountering the same issue?

 

I was using  my laptop by the way and not my phone.

It's working for me, and showing it as refundable.

 

Are you sure the date is in the correct format? 01/29/2022
