snip.....Today Carnival sent out EMails about cruises though to July 31st...we get an extra $100 OBC if we dont cancel and they do sail...

Hmmmmmmmmmm
Each time Ive had a cancellation, the price went down nicely a few days earlier or something ...
Maybe theyre getting ready to cancel until August 1st...

The cruise Lines are put in a position of running the equivalent of a Ponzi scheme to hang on to as much cash as they can, and to avoid borrowing more money, or declaring bankruptcy to reorganize their Cruise Line.

Since banks don't pay much interest on deposits, they can get Cruisers to basically loan them money.

The way cruise regulations in England are getting worse , I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't spread to our CDC, and extend Cruises to August 1st. -Tom

Exactly why the cruises are being actively promoted for sale in April-May-June-July. They will all be canceled and the cruise company got to use your deposit money free of interest.
