We cruise Sunday also! Super worried. I hope the itinerary doesn't change, we've got some fun plans arranged. Regardless I know we will have fun.

Can anyone advise what time the drill is?

Unfortunately, I know the answer to this from experience. My husband lost his sign & sail card, driver's license and some cash in Grand Turk. It is probably floating in the ocean somewhere. First, know you can't enter the port area without the sign & sail card in some port. We had to go to the port security office and tell them what happened. That took over an hour. They radioed all the agents to see if it had been found. Finally, the head person walked my husband up to the ship to escort him on board. Because I still had my sign-and-sail card, I was able to enter the ship. My husband had to tell his name and cabin #. They typed it into the computer screen and matched his photo (the one they take when you enter the ship). He was then able to enter the ship and go straight to guest services to get a new card. The problems occurred after you get home. He didn't have a driver's license, so I got to drive the entire way home (10 hours). He then had to report the license lost/stolen and get a new one. If this happens to you in the future, please know that you might have problems writing checks because your driver's license # is linked to your checking account with the company that verifies checks. It is a pain to send them a police report and take care of it. I hope this doesn't happen to you but if it does, know you can get back on the ship if the port authority escorts you on board.

O my goodness! I am so sorry this happened to you! The paranoid side of brain needed this question answered, and I really appreciate your answer.

If you lose your card they ban you from the buffet for one hour. Almost killed me.

well ****.... LOL

50 lashes with a wet noodle and you walk the plank! ;)

 

i would assume you go to guest services and they issue another one. Probably not a huge deal. Happy cruzin'!

lol!

What would happen if you lost your sail and sign card in a port? Im guessing you would need to show ID to get back on the boat?

What about if you were on the boat and lost it? Can they disable that card ( So no one else can use it) and reactive a new one for you?

Thanks!

11 days until we leave for NOLA. 14 days until we board the Dream!

What is Quest?

Hi,

Show me the Carnival branded gear you've bought on the ships! IE- shirts, bags, souvenirs, etc.

Can anyone confirm what sizes they carry for tshirts? Husband and I are both plus sized, and hoping we can buy a tshirt.

We cruise in 20 days and super excited! Do the ships still sell Carnival Christmas ornaments?

Thanks and have a great day!

Weve had one price drop, and it was only $20 each. I check several times a week. O well, it is what it is.

22 days until cruise! 19 days until vacation starts!

Hi,

I am the queen of over packing- but i dont really consider it over packing, i consider it being prepared for any situation. here are some things i am packing:

Highlighter

Post it notes

Plastic bags of all sizes

Kindle/ or books

first aid supplies

small sewing kit

Small fan

Snorkel gear- we have good stuff, plus i hate the idea of using stuff 1000 others use.

Tervis tumblers

All i can think of right now. Happy Cruisin!

Hi,

Were packing our own towels. 1. It makes it easier to identify our chairs. 2. If we loose them, we don't have to pay for them!

I have the worst anxiety! Ive found over the years i can help prevent it if i over prepare for the trip. I research the heck out of everywhere im going and i pack everything i could possibly need. It helps to relieve the what if's for me.

Hi,

What beverages are free? Coffee, tea, juice, milk?

What types of juice are available? Is there Pineapple juice or lemonade?

Yes, I know booze and soda are not free.

Thanks!

We have 27 days til the cruise, but I designed this one:

Bananarama Discover Scuba Package. HERE

 

Coconut Tree Here

 

I was out snorkeling in a boat with these guys who had discover scuba people with us. Anemona Divers Here

 

There are prolly heaps more. Trip Advisor has reviews aplenty for most of the dive operations.

Thank you so much!

30 days! :D

Hi,

Is there someplace that lists the Dive-In movie schedule for Dream in Oct?

Thanks!

I've been using these for years. They're made of thick PVC with strong braided steel loops for attaching. They never tear off. If you have time you can find them on Ebay for a couple of dollars each.

This is what we use. We bought them on Amazon. Think it was like $10.

I do mine by daytime and evenings for each day, and I colour some items to help me figure out how to repeat them on the cruise.

I have a separate list also that lists the essentials, and then I organize the clothing in this one.

 

I LOVE this! This will help me so much!

Hi,

Does anyone know a way to download the Hub app on a kindle? I cant find it in the app store.

Speaking of cruise apps ( besides shipmate), what are other good apps?

Thanks!

To cruise as many days as possible!!! Im easy to please :D

But i would love to do a crusie to Bermuda, Hawaii, Bahamas, southern Caribbean

Our cabin steward met us right away and asked if we wanted early or late room service. We chose late so he could get in there while we were at dinner. Worked out great for us except I have one question for all of you....

 

What do you do with room service trays when you're finished? We ordered coffee and fruit or bagels every morning but the tray was not removed until dinner time. Kind of gross and in our way in that tiny cabin. We had always set the tray in the hallway in the past, but I saw a debate started on John Heald's page and lots of people say that's rude? So yeah, not sure what the proper etiquette is on that one.

 

Anywhoo, as soon as we got our swimming suits on, the girls decorated our door. We always buy a simple decoration and poster putty from the Dollar Tree.

I bought that same flamingo for our cabin door in October!
