    I have a question. Has anyone ever bought a cruiselines discounted gift cards, like say $5000 worth and used them for a cruise? It’s a lot of money, so concerned.

      I purchased a few at full price but check before you purchase. I could only use mine through the cruise line, only for payment. I had figured a gift card could be used for anything on the ship but not the case. I would never buy another one as better deals are to be had by booking through a travel agent and since it is limited to what you can use it for.

        I had a $50 Disney gift card and used in on the cruise to pay gratuities – just gave it to guest services, no big deal. It may depend on the cruise line.

    Do you know if you can use gift cards to pay for tips?

      I have in the past for Carnival before I was on board. I did it online no issues.

    Thank you!! I missed out on the Carnival ones a couple days ago but was able to get in on the deal today!

    I just called RC and asked about the terms and you can use the gift cards to pay a balance but you can’t bring them on board the ship to pay for anything. You can also view the details of the gift cards on the ebay site and it’ll tell you everything in detail.
    So, I bought the max number of cards (3) I figure even a small amount of savings is better than none at all. Gotta pinch those pennies!!!

      Hi Bridget. I am also looking at the RC gift cards. I don’t see where it says a limit of 3. Do you mind sharing where you saw that limitation ? Thanks!

      • Bridget

        When I went to purchase the gift cards it set the maximum amount to 3. It wouldn’t let me purchase more than that. Maybe you could set up another paypal/ebay account but I didn’t do that.

    Wonder if I bought three and my husband bought three if all six could be used to purchase a cruise?

    Thank you so much! Cruising on the Carnival Horizon in Jan 2019. We take a family cruise every year instead of exchanging gifts. It’s always an amazing time. We always purchase gift cards in advance and add the gift cards on our sign and sail cards and use it for any purchases on the ship. Never had a problem using them.

      Same here Katie! We are sailing over Christmas again on Carnival Vista! I’m ready now!!😎

    Thanks! Saved $45 on my upcoming cruise for doing almost nothing!!

    Did anyone redeem these on an existing cruise reservation? I cannot seem to find where they can be applied.

    • Ashley

      I did for Carnival – I just went to make a payment and there was a gift card tab.

    Carnival sold out.
