  1. Hello Everyone ~ wondering how the sailing is from the West Coast (LAX, SF) going to Hawaii. Most of our cruises are along the East Coast and into the Caribbean so looking for a comparison. TIA.
  2. Thanks. Also wondering if anyone knows how long you get in Disney Springs.
  3. Good Afternoon Everyone ~ has anyone done the Disney Springs Excursion and return to the airport when getting off a Royal Caribbea ship? Wondering what time you get back to the airport. The description says it's for flights after 5 p.m. but if you need to be at the airport 1.5 hours before your flight I want to make sure we choose the proper flight. Thanks in advance.
  4. We are skipping due to weather. Apparently a storm front so very windy and some rain so they won’t shuttle to the island.
  5. We are delayed over an hour. Police on scene and people walked off ship after an hour of announcements for someone. Hope everyone is okay!
  6. We got a survey just after our sailing on the Venezia in November. My response was pretty brutal because the smoke in that casino is the worst we have EVER encountered on any cruise ship we have sailed on. The smoke permeates all over the place and especially down the hall toward the "smoke free" annex and into the 3 level atrium. I tried to contact Carnival about it but kept getting passed around to different departments. We are sailing on the Venezia again in 2 days (it was booked before our November sailing) but will probably not spend any time in the casino unless by some miracle they addressed the smoke issue.
  7. 🤣 I have the opposite problem. DH and I usually play together. I'd rather bet low and let my bank go up and down and enjoy the fun; he'd rather bet high and hope to win big. Either way we enjoy selves.
  8. There are about 25 slots machine plus table games in the casino annex and while there isn't smoking there, during our cruise the smoke from the main casino just permeated the entire area around the casino. It permeated into the atrium area too and you could smell it on decks 3, 4, and 5. Maybe there were just more smokers on our sailing but it was absolutely awful. The casino annex is very small and tight. You could barely walk between the chairs and then you have the scooters coming in so it was uncomfortable and pretty full the times we attempted to go there.
  9. The smoke was a big deal for us too. We go to the casino on some of the ships, but this one was so bad we didn't want to go near it or the areas you talk about. Unfortunately we booked for February before our November sailing, and they won't allow us to transfer our date so, they won't get any casino money or shopping money from us on this upcoming cruise.
  10. The gas pump nozzle had a to push it open. We’re thinking whoever did it had something to keep it jammed open but regardless of that, where’s the “secure” parking?
  11. Be careful! We parked there last year for a cruise and although the lot is fenced and locked someone siphoned our gas. We filled up on the way to the cruise terminal and came back to a car that wouldn't start. We thought something was wrong with the new battery and had to have it towed to our mechanic. The gas tank was empty!!!!!!
  12. Make sure you test it before you put anything in it. On the Horizon on September and on the Venezia in November we had to have someone come to replace the battery.
  13. We usually get the middle plan on the wifi and we have used the WhatsApp for texting and video calling with no charges.
  14. mz-s ~ I think you are probably right about the longer cruises. Let me pose this question to you; I posed it to a Carnival rep a month or so ago, but they didn't have any explanation. On a sailing prior to ours someone posted a message they got stating that there were so many Platinum and Diamond members that they wouldn't be offering priority embarkation on that sailing. I asked if they were still doing priority embark for those who pay for FTTF but they couldn't answer me. I think this would be totally wrong, offering it for paying customers when they are not offering it to those who have earned it. What do you think?
  15. Just to help in the future, because I personally cannot have artificial sweeteners, there is a difference between being allergic to something and having a reaction to something. I get a reaction which is severe muscle pain and headaches that last for days, but fortunately it's not life-threatening. A true food allergy affects the immune system. Even small amounts of the offending food can trigger a range of symptoms, which can be severe or life-threatening. In contrast, a food intolerance often affects only the digestive system and causes less serious symptoms. It's important that they know what is life threatening to you. Some lines will actually let you choose your menu the night prior so that they can prepare your food based on your needs. I hope you are able to work everything out.
