Rare lazydayz Posted May 3 #2 Share Posted May 3 It depends. How long until your cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early August. 7 hours ago, mz-s said: https://help.carnival.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3401/~/i-need-to-cancel-my-booking%2C-is-there-a-penalty%3F I did read this but found it a little confusing. If I understand correctly, depending on when we’d cancel that person, we could get some of our money back. The rest of us would just continue on with the cruise?

Rare lazydayz Posted May 3 #5 Share Posted May 3 Correct. But call Carnival and ask them the question as a hypothetical. If you are comfortable with the answer, you say ok, we need to cancel one person. The earlier you do the cancellation, the less the penalty will be. And yes, the rest of you who don’t cancel can still cruise, likely in the same cabin as originally booked. Good luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elaine5715 Posted May 3 #6 Share Posted May 3 Also depends if it was Guest 1, Guest 2, Guest 3 or Guest 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are considering booking for 4 of us but may find my husband is not able to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could also get the cancel for any reason coverage from Carnival to limit your losses if he needs to cancel. But if his fare is just $100, not sure it is worth it. Hope you all get to cruise.

Also, Px 3 & 4 generally (not always) have a lower rate. Sometimes it is better if the person simply is a no show vs canceling them.
