I don't think they do , But I believe they get the Military rate when cruising. But I am sure that there are upper level employees who get to cruise for free.:confused:
Yes they do. I'm an ex Carnival reservations employee! There were ways to "earn" free cruises! Plus we received *1* free after a year of service. ( just 1, not 1 every year )
Is it just a Legend?
So the next question is, do those that work on the ship get to bring on friends and/or family for free or a discounted rate?

I thought so. My PVP was SO ecstatic once when I booked a cruise - I figured it was the one that got him some sort of bonus.

2 free cruises a year!

Heck, some employees they even pay to cruise.
Oh, you were talking about when their not on duty. Sorry. :p ;) :D
At the time "sales" was not a way to earn them for the res dept. We could earn them by working overtime hours during wave season ( Jan-Mar ) up to a 7 day cruise.
The PVP's at the time, were only in the Miami office, and they very well could be earning them based on sales. Our sales incentives in res ( Cruise Consultants now called Cruise vacation Specialists ), were $$ only. The $$ was VERY good.
I happened to ask that same question on my last cruise a few weeks ago, and I was told only the main waiters do. I was told this by the activity director. No clue if that is true, just relating what I have been told.
Oh Yeah, the waiters, bus boys and room stewards get a free cruise every week for months and months at a time.

My FANTASY cruise 9/2006...
I met a lady that works at the port in Port Carnaveral.........
The ship had some empty cabins,,,,,,,
All she had to pay was taxes and port charges..........
There was a group of them............workers
An officer on Glory had his wife and baby with him on our cruise last Nov, but I didnt' get a chance to meet them. They had a formal photo taken together and they accompanied him to the Captain's cocktail party. I'm sure there's some kind of reward program as well as discounts for every employee. I can't see them giving them only to certain job types.
The wonderful PVP I used for four years told me she had been w/Carnival for 3 years in her present position. She said PVPs do not work on commission, but toward incentives. One of these would be a comp cruise, although she would pay port charges only...I think that's right. Anyhoo, she was a jewel - and now has been promoted to corporate office.:)
I was speaking with a bartender on the Fascination last week and she said she had been on 4 cruises herself. After her last two contracts her son came from Europe and they took a cruise. She said while not free it was deeply discounted.

When I went on the Elation last November there was a woman working at the check-in desk who had just been notified that she would be "going out." I guess they had an empty cabin, and she only had to pay taxes and port charges. She had packed a bag that morning and brought it to work w/ her, not knowing if she would be going or not. Some of the other women at the check-in desk were working out how they were going to get her car home and who would be coming to pick her up when she returned. How cool it that to go to work in the morning and be told you're going on (practically) a free cruise for the next week!
As you all know, my son worked on board for five years. We cruised for $50 per person per night. We got whatever cabin was available. One cruise we moved three times because better cabins kept opening up. The perks on board depend on the employee's position. He was an officer so we got some pretty good perks. We checked in at the Skipper's Club-no waiting in line. We stood in the bridge as we sailed out of Grand Cayman. My husband got to see the engine room. We did sail away out of Miami on the crew deck and we visited the crew quarters. The service in the dining room is exceptionally prompt when an officer eats with you. He was able to bring a guest to dinner every night. We had showgirls, Steiners, IS, and purser's join us. My first cruise with him was solo and he arranged for the Carnival rep to meet me at the airline gate (pre 9-11). I felt very special. Oh how I will miss that on our upcoming Freedom cruise. Carnival does have "Friends and Family" rates for last minute cruises if you know someone. It's hit and miss and last minute airfare may cancel out any savings.
I worked for Carnival recently, just got off of the Inspiration. It depends what position you have. After a year you do get a free cruise and family can usually cruise for something like $20 a day if there is space. I was in the Entertainment department so I was pretty lucky for benefits. Crew members (waiters, stewards etc) are not so fortunate. Most will never even get the chance to go to the chief purser's office to book a cruise for family. Also, a lot depends on how the chief purser is... what kind of mood they're in that day etc. Officers have it the best.. I know they have the most benefits.
To the person who said: "Oh Yeah, the waiters, bus boys and room stewards get a free cruise every week for months and months at a time.
Those people work so hard and are treated like dirt so it's not really a free cruise for them.
The CVS's (in Colorado Springs) get to take a cruise after earning it by working overtime at the beginning of the year. The person who books my cruises for me is going to cruise with me on our Oct sailing. She only has to pay taxes.
" Those people work so hard and are treated like dirt so it's not really a free cruise for them.
I would NEVER work at sea......unless I had a ship filled with considerate pax like myself....but we all know that aint happening!
I think if I worked on a ship...I would want to holiday on land somewhere....ya think?
The wonderful PVP I used for four years told me she had been w/Carnival for 3 years in her present position. She said PVPs do not work on commission, but toward incentives.
According to my best friend who still works there ( Where we became friends ) they still are paid a commission, plus base & incentive!

Maybe PVP could be a great retirement job! Hanging around the Boards certainly gives one great insight as to what makes most passengers happy. Of course I'd do my best work on a ship so give me a room, a phone and my laptop!:) No, never mind, CRUISING is going to be my retirement job-I'll be too busy to answer the phone or surf the net, so everyone's on their own. See you on the ship!!!!:D
....... my son worked on board for five years....was an officer.
:) I remember you telling us about that. How exciting for you and your DH to be able to do the 'behind the scenes' tours. Did he change professions, or is he w/another cruise line?
I just booked a cruise with a family member's discount and it was roughly $900 off of Expedia's rate of $2400 for 4 people for a week. It's going to cost more than I was expecting, but I guess it's still a pretty good savings.

2024 carnival shareholder benefit (valid through december 2024).
One of the most viewed pages on our site is about the benefits you receive for being a shareholder with your favorite cruise line. These benefits can be quite rich! In fact, in 2023 Carnival Corporation provided shareholders up to $250 in onboard credit – but that offer ended on February 28, 2024. This article walks you through changes to the new 2024 Carnival Shareholder Benefit along with big updates to the process requesting benefits.
2024 Carnival Shareholder Benefit Update
Good news, cruisers: Carnival Corporation has extended the shareholder benefit program once again! However, unlike previous years, the cruise operator only extended the program through this year. That’s right, the current program only applies to sailings completed by December 31, 2024 .
According to Carnival, all benefits remain the same from last year for North America Brands:
2024 Shareholder Benefit Requirements
In order to qualify for the 2024 Shareholder Benefit Program, you must own at least 100 shares of Carnival Corporation (CCL) stock. As of the time of this writing, that would be an investment of $1,665. Had you purchased the stock at Carnival’s 52-week low, it would have only cost you $837. Even at today’s stock price, just two 14-day cruises and three 7-day cruises recoups half your investment!
For current $CCL stock price information, refer to Google Finance .
All Carnival Corporation Brands Participate
It’s important to note that all of Carnival Corporation’s brands participate in the Carnival Shareholder Benefit program. While the amount of onboard credit varies by region, each brand maintains a tiered amount based on the length of your sailing. The following Carnival Corporation brands participate in the 2024 Carnival Shareholder Benefit Program:
- Carnival Cruise Line
- Princess Cruises
- Holland America Line
- Costa Cruises
- AIDA Cruises
- P&O Cruises
Carnival Rolls Out New Way to Submit for Shareholder Benefit
Many have written to us about changes to the process on requesting the Carnival Shareholder Benefit. Over the past year, Carnival Corporation tested an updated process through an app called StockPerks. A quick search will bring up countless Facebook threads and cruise message board posts with questions about the app.
On our last attempt to request via email (the old way), we received this message from Carnival:
Carnival Corporation has engaged Stockperks to implement a more automated and streamlined process for the processing of shareholder benefits. During the ongoing transition phase, shareholders may be redirected to Stockperks to engage with our updated redemption process. The Stockperks service is governed by Stockperks’ Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, and may be subject to other Stockperks policies and terms.
So what does this mean? It means a big change for how to request your Shareholder Benefit going forward.
How to Request Carnival Shareholder Benefits in 2024
With the full transition to StockPerks, Carnival now requires you to download the StockPerks app from either the Apple or Google Play Store depending on your device. While the download was quite simple, there were quite a few steps before we could actually submit our request.
We’re putting together a separate Stockperks Job Aid that walks you through step-by-step how to create your Stockperks account and request your Shareholder Benefit.
Important: You must submit your request at least 3 weeks prior to your sailing.
Fine Print and Disclaimers
When talking about Shareholder Benefits, the stock market, and free onboard credit, there are some big disclaimers:
- Carnival Shareholder Benefit is available to shareholders who own a minimum of 100 shares of Carnival Corporation stock
- Carnival Shareholder Benefit available on sailings through December 31, 2024
- Requests for Carnival Shareholder Benefit must be submitted at least 3 weeks prior to your sailing (repeating this in case you missed the red bold text above!)
- Only one Carnival Shareholder Benefit can be used per stateroom (i.e., if multiple people in the stateroom own at least 100 shares of Carnival Corporation stock, only one credit will be awarded per stateroom)
- Employees, travel agents cruising at travel agent rates or interline rates, tour conductors, or anyone else cruising at a reduced-rate or on a complimentary basis are excluded from the Carnival Shareholder Benefit offer
- Carnival Shareholder Benefit is non-transferable (i.e., you cannot give your Shareholder Benefit to another cruiser)
- Carnival Shareholder Benefit can not be redeemed for cash and cannot be used for casino credits/charges charged to your onboard account
- You can not use your Carnival Shareholder Benefit to pay for gratuities*
- As with any stock purchase or investment, there is market risk. You could lose money with the investment. Additionally, as you buy/sell stock, there could be tax implications. Nothing on this page should be used to make an investment or tax decision and I retain zero liability for any decisions you may make
*While the official documents state that the Carnival Shareholder Benefit cannot be used to pay gratuities, we’ve not seen this enforced (cruise boards also confirm this). According to the official Carnival Shareholder Benefit Program, the onboard credit cannot be used, however, your mileage may vary.
Carnival Shareholder Benefit Recap Video
Check out our video recap on the benefits of being a Carnival Shareholder. We’re currently working on an updated video for 2024 that includes StockPerks details.
4 thoughts on “2024 Carnival Shareholder Benefit (valid through December 2024)”
Will by pass this “opportunity”. Need to include date of birth, email address, and average annual income. In the next section of an additional site, one needs to identify what investment group the shares are held in, then allow access using your name and password. Did not include this or any other further information. Deleted the origianl application. Contacted Holland America and poke with a surpervisor who informed me, “there is “no other option”. If stockperks not used the share holder will not recieve the on board credit.
Thanks for your comment, Rita. I talk about these very things in the StockPerks Step-By-Step I’m creating!! If you can get past the fact that a 3rd party is asking for your income (which is kind of odd, no?), StockPerks does provide a manual option for providing your statement so you don’t have to give them access to your financial institution:
Automatic broker connection : The app’s recommended option Manual statement upload : the app warns that this takes longer, however, is required if you have an account with Fidelity, Edward Jones, or Ally
I’ll get the one-pager posted hopefully early next week. In there, I give tips and tricks on how to get the benefit without the risk.
I am a stickler for NOT giving out unnecessary information. As Rita stated in her review, it does ask for income – but did not require an answer – so I left it blank. DOB and email address is typical to locate your booking information and send you a reply so no issues there. There was no way I was going to provide my financial log in info but I easily uploaded a recent statement with all the info blocked out, just as I used to do via email to get credit the old way. It was really quick. Only issue I have is having 2 accounts and doing all the work over again for my spouse. Its getting annoying that everyone has their own required app but hopefully this one will pay off with other perks.
Thanks for the tip that “Annual income” is not a required field. I missed that when I first signed up! I’m also glad to hear that the statement upload worked for you without a hitch!
I just posted a complete step-by-step article for those setting up StockPerks for the first time. A post like this would have helped me, so I’m hoping it’ll reduce some pain for others. Enjoy your shareholder benefits!!

401K was ok, nothing expectacular. The best thing is I have such a good experience and big family. Exelent nice good friendly good benefit. Carnival Cruise Line benefits and perks, including insurance benefits, retirement benefits, and vacation policy. Reported anonymously by Carnival Cruise Line employees.
It depends what position you have. After a year you do get a free cruise and family can usually cruise for something like $20 a day if there is space. I was in the Entertainment department so I was pretty lucky for benefits. Crew members (waiters, stewards etc) are not so fortunate.
As a PVP "R1" you are to bring your own equipment, have zero days off in the first 90-days (I think 16 hours unpaid if you have an emergency). There is no commission for 90+ days, if you don't stay for a year they take most of the commission back. They expect north of 100 calls per day and most don't make it 6 months.

Does Carnival Cruise Line offer employees a 401k plan? Asked December 13, 2020. Yes, after 90 days you're eligible for the following benefits: 1. 401k with Company Match. 2. 14 days PTO per year. 3. 10 paid Sick Days (Ability to carry over if not all used) 4. 8 paid Holidays per year. 5. Equipment Stipend worth up to $1,000.
To acknowledge and reward Team Carnival's significant contributions to the company's success and to help team members plan and save for retirement, Carnival has developed The Fun Ship Retirement Plan. This plan provides a lump-sum benefit upon team members' retirement from Carnival after at least 10 years of continuous service.
Land-Based Roles. Corporate. Ship Operations. Commercial Operations. Business Operations. Information Technology (IT) Sales and Service. My journey at Carnival Cruise Line began in 2014 as an onboard officer. Carnival's unwavering values and clear mission have made this company my second family and an enduring source of inspiration.
