BlerkOne replied to Earthworm Jim's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I vote for a jetted /shower combo. Sadly they are replacing some of the jetted tubs with plain tubs on some ships. I would even prefer a tub/shower combo over just a shower. Having a choice is good. -
The crew remembers you name even after the cruise. Even table or cabin numbers. They don't need a rolodex. Some remember me long after I've forgotten them (sad but true).
-
The FBI would be called in to preserve any evidence (if any) found in the cabin. Especially for a suspicious death. The ship isn't going to be taken out of service. If they wait until the Bahamas makes a ruling it could be way too late.

Will the Carnival Spirit have a naturalist on board?
BlerkOne replied to geovet's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
When in Glacier Bay, Park Rangers board the ship. For the next few years, Carnival won't be cruising Glacier Bay - other Carnival brands are, however. For the rest of Alaska, yes, Carnival has a naturalist. -

On Celebrity you can wear jeans every night, including their "elegant" nights. -
I like their prime rib, but shoe leather is better than their standard strip steak. I have found a steady decline in the quality of steak on Celebrity, too

Celebrity Solstice - Pacific Coast Itinerary in Jeopardy

Google whales impaled by ships... -
I think we likely had the best weather this season. But there was Noro (or at least gastro-intestinal) on our cruise, Covid and more. The Captain was making daily announcements to take personal hygiene seriously and many still did not. Some blatantly ignored the staff that was trying to squirt sanitizer into their hands at many of the venues. I think at least half of the 18 people on our Iguazu excursion had something. One even commented on how tasteless the food was. Hello??? I know there were also various plaques on the Oceania ship we kept seeing.

Looks like 3 to me?

On my last Carnival cruise (Jan 23, a 14 day cruise) lobster was served twice in the MDR. On the second night I combined with prime rib.
-
Even Carnival allows 2 lobsters before an extra charge of only $5/per.

Passport length for San Francisco Ensenada cruise
BlerkOne replied to Lmuk77's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
^^^ This. Ensenada doesn't have an International Airport, so it's not like anyone will be flying home. -
I thought the regular lobster in the MDR on Infinity was fine. I didn't think asking $16.99 + 18% for additional lobsters was reasonable.
-
If a couple, the $5pp cost seems more reasonable. I don't recall seeing salmon on the standard rs menu, but I also didn't look at it that close. To compare, when I last cruised on Princess, one could order drinks against the drink package, and some dishes from a specialty restaurant (extra charge), which is more palatable to me. All using the remote control from the TV.
