The OBC you get depends upon length of cruise, but as an example for 7-13 days it's $100, or £60 if sailing with a U.K. brand, which I assume means P&O or Cunard. To get $200 it would need to be 14 days or longer.
We hold 100 Carnival shares bought back in 2011 at £19 per share. Best investment we ever made - we've had more in on board credit than we paid for the shares. Plus they pay a quarterly dividend. Not sure I would buy at £43 per share!
