3,000+ Club

3,000+ Club (3/15)

  1. I just returned from a cruise on the Celebration. The cruise was Sunday to Sunday. We received the following invitation, which mentioned a free drink voucher: VIFP Diamond and Platinum Gathering Saturday, February 4, 2023 Grand Spectrum Theater, 7 Fwd 4:00 pm Your membership in the VIFP Club comes with perks...like this invitation. You and a guest are invited to meet your fellow Diamond and Platinum Club members at this exclusive gathering, where you'll each receive one complimentary glass of wine. You'll also receive one voucher* for a beverage of your choice, which is added to your folio and can be redeemed with your Sail & Sign card at any bar starting one hour before the event. See you there! *Valued a $11.00
  2. My husband and I will be on the cruise too. I can't believe it's tomorrow! I will follow along on your review when I have some down time during the cruise. It sounds like you could use a vacation after such a tough year. This past one has been a bit hard for our family too and we are ready to have a fun time. I hope your cruise is awesome. I will enjoy reading your review. The races look like a lot of fun.
  3. Thanks for such a wonderful review with all of the pictures! It looks like you had a lot of fun. Sorry it ended with covid. My husband and I are vaccinated, boosted, and still got covid twice since 2021. Congratulations on your work award! That is awesome. The food looks very good. We cruised on the Mardi Gras last year and really enjoyed all of the options. We are set to sail on the Celebration tomorrow, so it was especially nice being able to read a current review of the ship.
  4. I really wasn't paying attention to the benefit of the drink for the brunch, so I didn't the to collect it. The cruise was last February, so I don't recall why I got the free drink on the last night. I am cruising again in a few days, so will see what happens this time.
  5. When we cruised on the Mardi Gras, the chocolate delight plate looked 1000% better than that picture posted. We were platinum on that cruise and did get a voucher linked to our card to a free drink the last night of our cruise. I used it at the comedy show. I am not sure why we got the voucher, since that benefit isn't listed on the platinum benefits.
  6. Since you have a high quality photo of your unexpired license, you may want to go ahead and print it out to show with your temporary paper copy. Good luck!
  7. We actually cruised on the Mardi Gras for free (minus gratuities, port fees, and a small upgrade fee for a better cabin) because of my slot plays. I get discount emails often. That was the only time I got a free cruise though. I don't gamble a lot.
  8. haha! I will say hi. I sometimes play the slot machines, so maybe I will see you in the casino. We are also always at the comedy shows. Every. Night.
  9. We got the Sunpass, so if we hit any tolls on that drive, we should be golden. LOL. I have no idea where all of the toll roads are in Florida. We are platinum and also in a suite, so it looks like we were able to check in two days prior to the general check in.
  10. Yes, The Villages. There is so much to do. I keep getting emails from Carnival for discounted cruises from Australia. A cruise to Australia sounds amazing. That's a perfect cruise to hit platinum.
  11. That is exciting to sail on your first Excel! I guess I can be considered a Florida native since I was born in FL, but I lived all over the US after that. We now live about an hour north of Orlando and love living in Florida. We really enjoy cruising on Carnival, although I had an awesome time on one of Royal's mega ships. Finally reached platinum on our last cruise, so we can enjoy those perks.
  12. Nice! Our check in time is 10:30 to 11:00 and we are driving too. We moved to Florida a couple of months ago, so this will be great to be able to drive to the ports. We are very excited to cruise on the Celebration. We cruised on the Mardi Gras last year.
  13. The double digit dance is always so exciting! It's 14 days for me! We sail on the Celebration on the 29th and got an awesome rate for a suite a long time ago. 2022 was a tough year, so we are ready to sail.
  14. I've used both of these and found the service good. The best transportation I have used to get from MCO to a port hotel was Uber. I've done that twice and it was so nice. To get from the port hotel to the cruise ship, I usually use the hotel's shuttle. The last time I cruised, I used Uber because my check in time was early.
