Nobody is losing their deposits...they are getting them all back without penalties..
From the EMail I got today from Carnival about voluntary cancelling a cruise ...
Option 2: If you are not comfortable waiting, you may cancel any time between now and March 31, 2021 and receive a full refund to your original form of payment.
Option one gave me another $100 OBC if I didnt cancel and we end up cruising in June...
Plus the promotional $50 on that cruise plus the $600 OBC because of a previous cancelled cruise and the deposit/credit if I want to put that on this one...
