If I may add, I didn’t load on my tablet when I made the appointment but did yesterday (I test tomorrow). You get a chance to test the Zoom app after you download so that is one less worry day of.
If you have extra test boxes I also suggest you do a practice run. I watched the IHealth video and now I am ready for tomorrow.
I will be using On Point. I will report back after it is completed.
Can’t wait to hear how this goes for you.

No showing the report on your phone/ipad is fine. Just make sure you don't need network connection to be able to pull it up. One suggestion is to pull it up on your screen and take a screenshot and save.
Thanks so much for your advice. We are not technically savvy enough to figure this out but can manage that! Appreciate you, wrk2cruise.

Yes, you can use a phone or tablet. We used our laptop because we were at home. If we had taken the test in a hotel I would have used my iPad.
Is there a requirement to have printed results? If we test using our IPad in the hotel, we would not be able to print the results.

Thanks 4hunters for the link. I think it is well worth the try. Just sent mine off to the Alabama reps.

For those unsure as to what commercial is being referred to, check these out:
-
Summary of the new global advertising campaign [Cruise Industry News]
- The new "Break Free" campaign was designed to encourage travelers to "look beyond the confines of 2020 and towards a future when they can reconnect with the people and places they have missed most"
- For the Queen diehards, the new campaign makes use of the band's hit song "I Want To Break Free"
- 1-minute long version of commercial [NCL/YouTube]
- 30-second long version [NCL/YouTube]
Thanks for posting that! Now I can look at it and dream of future possibilities but we are already booked on NCL October 2021, a re-book after cancellation this past May and we have been worrying that we might lose that money altogether if NCL goes bankrupt and then lo and behold, we see the commercial. Was a little shocked and puzzled to see that. It isn’t going to make us book another cruise right now but brought back a wistful memory 😪of all the old commercials we were so used to seeing. Was a shocker to say the least.

NCL has a new TV commercial, first commercial for cruising we have seen in months! It is beautiful but why do you think they are putting this out there now when we have no idea when we will get to cruise again?

Got our refund for our Bahamas cruise that was due to sail on October 1st ten days after submitting the online form

We were looking at a cruise out of Mobile in January so I panicked a little when you posted this so I got on the Carnival website and I was able to go all the way through the booking. On my IPad on Safari.

This is the first I have gotten in a week but saw posts that I should have been notified of and did not.

Can’t speak to Uber as we have never used them. Our pre-cruise hotel was close enough that we walked to the port. We dropped off our luggage early, went back to the hotel to park our vehicle in a good safe spot and walked in for check in. I am sure someone will be able to help you with your question.

Agree with all of the other posts We have a cruise in October out of Jacksonville 🙏 and just booked our hotel with a park and cruise package, pay at check in and can cancel up to the day before Our experience has been that the best deals tend to go fast the closer to the sail date so right now we have better choices
-
Your experience is so refreshing to hear! Seems like all we get are negatives anymore. Thanks for sharing and I will also hope the best for your Thanksgiving Cruise.

Baby sea turtle rescues in Cozumel. Digging the babies out of the sand knowing we were directly instrumental in their rescue and hopefully survival was by far the most rewarding experience we have had.

Since first posting this thread I had several weeks without any notifications and in the meantime I had changed my email to my husband’s, started getting notifications and then recently changed my email back to mine and am now getting notifications. It is great 😁 but not sure what or why this is now working for me.

I check the confirmation off and on and it was posted there by Carnival, there was no way I was going to let an offer like that go away. I jumped on it immediately and just like that we had a Grand Suite. I always check my reservations on all the ships once a week to see if anything appears different. Once a week I check amenities to see any changes.
The other day when I checked one of our Royal Caribbean reservations I saw the Deluxe Beverage Package went from $72.00 a day down to $57.00, I thought since the cruise is in Jan I would just keep checking. We now purchased it for $43.00 a day, one of the best prices we ever got.
Just once a week go into your booked cruises and see if anything has changed, even check the pricing, last year saved $700.00 on one of our cruises.
Thanks for that advice. I have never thought about checking my reservations. I do keep an eye on pricing and have need able to score a couple of price cuts on some of our cruises with the best one so far being $500 off our cruise to the Western Mediterranean on NCL Epic for next year. I will definitely be checking our reservations from now on. Had no idea to do that.

Thanks for the info! We booked direct with Carnival and have already received a couple of emails about our booking so hopefully a reasonable upgrade offer will be in our future.

Ecstasy on Oct 24 from Jacksonville
So happy for you 😁 We just booked the Ecstasy for October 1 out of Jacksonville. Could not believe the low price for a porthole room so we took the chance that this will sail. How do you get an upgrade offer.? We have never gotten one as I recall. Does Carnival email you? And can you get an upgrade offer without having made final payment yet?

We usually stay at the Malaga Inn which has a park and cruise deal, does cost $7 per day to park but that is a lot cheaper than what the port charges and you can literally walk to the terminal. We drive to the terminal early drop off luggage go back to the hotel and park. Then walk in. Of course only works that way if the weather cooperates. We have also stayed at the Microtel in Saraland which, when we did this a couple of years ago, let us park for free and shuttled us in to the terminal no charge. Lots of fellow cruisers at that hotel.

According to AL.com Carnival won’t be sailing out of Mobile until September. But if your cruise does indeed sail, the port of Mobile is easy to navigate and parking decks do fill up fast but overflow is across the highway. We always go in a day or two early and get a park and cruise package simply because we love Mobile and always use this time pre-cruise to enjoy all the stuff to do in and around Mobile. Price to park at the terminal is pricey in our opinion which is another reason we add on a couple of vacation days, hang out in Mobile and park at our hotel for free.

We have sailed from Mobile a few times, as recently as last October. What do you want to know?

Wow, this was so easy and the Delta representative was super nice. Non refundable tickets and no more than 8 minutes total on the phone got my refund processed without any questions asked. Way to go Delta!!!!!!!

Thanks for letting me know that. One less thing to worry about figuring out.
