ladysail2 Posted December 11, 2022 #52 Share Posted December 11, 2022 The email from Carnival doesn’t specifically say what the 25% FCC is based on. The email does say that all monies paid so far will be totally refunded including the deposit..even for Early Saver. I’ve paid the deposit plus made equal monthly payments to the tune of about $1600. I’m presuming the 25% FCC is based on the cruise fare only…not port fees and taxes. They are giving a $100 OBC for the inconvenience…..are they giving another $100 OBC for booking a future cruise by Feb 2023? Shucks, when my cruise was cancelled in 2020…we got $600 OBC….that was nice! Will Carnival inform us of the amount of the FCC, or does the travel agent do that? Guess I’ll just have to wait for Carnival or my ta to inform me of amounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your PVP is in error as that's a major slap in the face. From my experiences with these kinds of things it is usually based on what ladysail2 said. Your cruise fare minus the govt taxes and fees. Hope your PVP was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinMama2003 Posted December 11, 2022 #57 Share Posted December 11, 2022 We just rebooked for Jan 2024 and the 25% IS based on the original cruise fare minus taxes & fees 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted December 11, 2022 #58 Share Posted December 11, 2022 That sucks. It sucks for the people who have been cancelled, and it also sucks because the first voyage isn’t a unique one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like a double benefit and is pretty sick IMO. I'd be pumped for that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carguylee Posted December 12, 2022 #60 Share Posted December 12, 2022 We are booked 1/6/24 which I thought was going to be a good balance of brand new & working the kinks out. Now I am hoping that we won't get canceled with another delay and that a chunk of the the kinks will be worked out within the first two cruises.

2Shoes2Go Posted December 13, 2022 #61 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Just moved the b2b up a few weeks. Not a big deal. Jubilee will be much like Mardi Gras and Celebration. They are all beautiful and fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudyard Posted December 15, 2022 #62 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Just booked a new cruise today and found out how the 25% FCC works. It's 25% off the total (not including taxes and port fees) of whatever your base cruise fare for the cancelled cruise was no matter how much you had already paid on it. I had only paid my deposit so far for my cancelled Jubilee cruise but was credited with $350 towards the new cruise I booked today. My refund hadn't been processed yet so my PVP was able to roll it over to cover my new deposit, so I paid nothing today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is still there with excursions for sale, etc. Yes, still there with everything for sale. I asked when they were going to officially cancel it so I can get my refund. I was told "soon." Since we booked it on a great deal $100pp balcony Jackpot deal we will only get $50obc so just want my refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delivery delayed to Dec. 2023. First six cruises cancelled (TA + first 5 Western Caribbean), will now sail directly from Germany to Galveston w/o PAX, maiden voyage will be a regular 7-day Caribbean from Galveston departing Dec. 23. the only good thing is most likely very low chance of any hurricanes in Dec from TX. still I feel bad for folks but every cruise line it seems has delays on early sailings of a new ship.

My PVP canceled it so he could apply my Jubilee deposit to the new cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
