What a Mardi Gras price drop is worth
One drop in ten is worth more than $360 on a cabin for two. None of that comes back to you automatically. Carnival does not call when the price falls, so a drop is only worth money if somebody notices it while the claim window is still open.
Carnival runs this through its Early Saver Price Protection & 110% Lowest Price Guarantee. Before final payment: early Saver protection runs until 2 business days before you sail. After final payment: still covered under Early Saver, as onboard credit. Read the full Carnival policy.
CruiseSignal watches your exact ship, sail date and cabin category, then tells you the amount and which policy applies. You or your travel agent file the claim.
