Carnival Cruise Line Shareholder Benefit

One of the benefits of being a Carnival Corporation shareholder is the shipboard credit that is offered. To claim this credit, you generally need to own at least 100 shares of the cruise line (stock symbols: CCL, CUK, or RCL as appropriate). You will also need to mail or fax either a shareholder proxy card or a copy or your brokerage statement to the cruise line to prove that you own the stock.

Royal Carribean share holders may also take advantage of a similar cruise credit. Unfortunately, Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL) does not offer a shipboard credit.

Here is a link with more complete information about the cruise line shareholder benefits offered to CCL and RCL shareholders. Lastly, I want to put in a shameless plug for my favorite personal finance blog, PFStock. PFStock has recently been mentioned by the critically acclaimed cruise website Cruise Critic.
