Sorry, aber Dein Vergleich mit den Hotels hinkt SEHR, denn dort buchst Du FEST etwas hier nicht......Du hast keine festen Häfen gebucht es ist lediglich ein Plan, die Route kann JEDERZEIT geändert werden auch von heute auf Morgen und während der Fahrt, wenn es Dir nicht gefällt, kannst Du kostenlos zurück treten, sofern es vor Abfahrt fest steht...so ist es nun einmal...
Dies scheinen einige nicht zu wissen und sind in so fern unwissend, wie Dein unpassendes Beispiel mit den Hotels zeigt...
Richtig ist, es gibt doch keine $20, da die Info vor Abfahrt gegeben wurde....wir hatten das letzte Mal "Glück" und es wurde erst bei Abfahrt bekannt gegeben, dafür haben wir dann aber die $20 bekommen, immerhin 4 Cocktails....
Port Cancellation Policy
If Carnival Cruise Lines ("Carnival") has adequate notice prior to sailing that a vessel will deviate from the published itinerary, it will promptly upon making the itinerary change notify passengers of the change through their travel agents or directly, in the case of a direct booking ("the Notice"). The Notice shall offer passengers an opportunity to cancel their booking without penalty within 24 hours of the delivery of the Notice. Carnival shall not be liable to guests for any charges, fees or expenses paid or owed to third parties (such as air travel booked by a guest directly with an airline) in connection with a cancelled booking or substituted port. In the event a passenger does not cancel his or her cruise on a timely basis, no additional compensation for the itinerary change will be offered to the passenger at a later time.
In the event the itinerary change becomes necessary while the ship is at sea or when notice prior to sailing is not feasible, Carnival shall attempt to substitute an alternative port. Carnival shall promptly provide written notice of the itinerary change to the passengers as well as announcing the change in the Carnival Capers and via the public address system. No compensation shall be provided to passengers when an alternative port is offered.
If safety, scheduling or other concerns prevent the ship from calling on an alternative port, Carnival shall promptly provide written notice of the elimination of the scheduled port to the passengers as well as announcing the change in the Carnival Capers and via the public address system. The written notice shall also offer a shipboard credit of $20.00 (U.S.D.) per person to be reflected on the sail and sign account.
Nothing herein shall affect the passenger's ability to exercise the Vacation Guarantee on sailings where it applies.
