Here's the email reply: "Thank you for contacting Holland America Line in regards to your Carnival Shareholder benefit. Holland America Line has applied the shipboard credit amount of $100.00 to your reservation _____, and it will be credited to your onboard account upon embarkation." Excellent! We'll get ours done for that date when we get home from this cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very high debt and huge interest payments,most investments firms dont think they will survive without some kind of a restructure.With covid refunds,casino offers, etc.full ships dont necessarily mean things are on a better path, Thoughts. Getting OBC is a nice perk; it's honestly why I bought CCL stock. With that said, you're right 00649, that high debt and interest payments are concerning. There's a difference between sailing with full ships and increasing revenue and making a profit. I believe CCL offered so many free cruises so they could report better fill rates across their brands. That paints 1 picture. Increasing prices (fares, tips, extra dining surchages, etc) is both a reaction to increased supply chain prices and an attempt to offset free cruises and demonstrate an increase in revenue. So, absolutely no, full ships don't necessarily equate to a healthy balance sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCL closed today at 9.21. It would take only four 14-day cruises to recoup your investment. If you think those are bad odds, I can show you some that truly are bad!
