We do not currently have a lot of information about the status of the shipping channel, cruise terminal or the port access infrastructure. Local communication has been very challenging and there are restrictions against incoming traffic into the Galveston area.<br /><br />We do not expect the Port of Galveston to be open on Monday and there is tremendous uncertainty about when the port will be available to us next week.<b> Due to this situation, we will now cancel the following cruises:<br /><br />Carnival Conquest September 14, 2008 departure that was re-scheduled to a 6 day cruise departing on Monday, September 15.</b>Carnival Ecstasy September 15, 2008 departure<br /><br />Guests will receive a full refund of cruise fare and we will process these refunds within three weeks.<br /><br />We sincerely apologize to our guests that are impacted by these cancelled cruises. Unfortunately, we did not have any viable options available to provide an alternative cruise option.<br /><br />We hope that all of those that reside in the areas impacted by Hurricane Ike were able to remain safe. We also wish a speedy recovery to those that may have sustained damage homes or businesses.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--><br /><br /><br />I saw no mention of a discounted next cruise? did I miss that?
