Since the stock prices are so low
right now and the shipboard credit is so high, this almost too good to be true.
Especially when you know that is is not a one time offer, as long as you own 100
shares of the stock at the time you cruise you get the onboard credit listed
below. So buy your stock now, hold it and cruise like crazy. You will get your
money back in shipboard credits! How can you go wrong?
Here is how
this works.......If you owe 100 shares or more of RCCL or Carnival Corp stock
you can get shipboard credit on your next cruise.
Currently
Royal Caribbean (RCL) stock price is under $10 a share (as of Jan. 15, 2009)
that means you need to invest just under $1,000 right now in Royal Caribbean
stock.
-
$250 Onboard Credit per
Stateroom on Sailings of 14 or more nights.
-
$200 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on
Sailings of 10 to 13 nights.
-
$100 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on
Sailings of 6 to 9 nights.
-
$50 Onboard Credit per Stateroom on
Sailings of 5 nights or less.
-
Applicable on any Royal
Caribbean, Celebrity Cruises or Azamara Cruises Sailings. (excludes
Celebrity Xpeditions)
Once you book your cruise you just
have to fill out some info and send it to RCCL to get the credit.
Now think about this. If you are
on a 14 Nt Cruise say to Australia/New Zealand or South America, this gives you
over a 25% return on your money! Where are you going to find that kind of a
return anywhere else (legally) and you can get that with every sailing you go
on! So if you were to take 4 cruises of over 14 Nts that will more than pay for
the stock!
You just have to have a copy of
your current brokerage statement which you can probably print online so you
don’t have to own the stock that long!

Now for
Carnival Corp (CCL), which includes Carnival, Costa, Cunard, Holland
America, P&O, Princess and Seabourn, it is not as attractive of a return since
the stock is selling for just over $20 (as of Jan. 15, 2009) so
you
would have to pony up just over $2,000 for something similar. The Carnival Corp
is valid on any of their brands and the shipboard credit runs from $50 to $250.
So at the $250 level that is still giving the client/stockholder over a 10%
return on their money right now, which ain’t bad since the bank is paying about
.25%!
Carnival Corporation & plc is pleased to extend the following
benefit to their shareholders:
-
Onboard credit per stateroom on sailings of 14 days or
longer US $250
-
Onboard credit per stateroom on sailings of 7 to 13 days+ US
$100
-
Onboard credit per stateroom on sailings of 6 days or less
US $50
