  1. Hi Jeff, we went on this cruise in 2014. We went to all the ports except Martinique.

     

    I wrote a blog about our experience and what we did that you might like to read.

  2. Hi everyone! We are 2 adults looking for tips for our first time Disney cruise, specifically activities on board and what excursions people recommend. We are leaving on the Magic on April 16th, if anyone else is traveling let us know!

     

    More specifically we have a couple of questions

     

    1) What activities on board are not to miss?

    2) What excursions from the different ports do people recommend

    3) Is there a Chef table? If so, how can one make a reservation?

    4) We want to eat a night at Palo, but don't want to miss out on a wonderful dinner on one of the nights. What would be the best night.

     

    Thanks in advance!

  3. Hi,

    We are on the same cruise! We've been on the Miracle a few times but have not done the chef's dinner so I don't know the normal amount of time it takes to get an answer. As for the steak house in my experience you can easily book once you are on board.

    The entertainment shows are done twice so that both early and late dinner folks can see them.

    There are also comedians doing stand up with early family friendly shows and then later night adult only shows. I'd make your dinner res any time you like and don't worry about the shows as you can work around them.

    We have FTTF and this time a suite too.

    FTTF has its own separate check in line outside the dome on the far right as you are facing it. You can check in any time you arrive and then we all wait outside until they start boarding. I have not been aboard before about 12:30ish lately. We used to expect to be on by noon but that didn't happen last year.

    There is a roll call for this cruise but it is very quiet. Feel free to join it and ask questions about the ports or ship or whatever you like!

    There is often an LGBT meet and greet but that's about it.

    I have enjoyed massages on board but generally wait to see specials that are offered while on the cruise. I don't think I'll do one this time as I've been spoiled this year with a masseuse coming to our home for a very reasonable price!!

     

     

     

    Awesome! Thank you for so much information!

  4. Hey guys! We will be traveling on the Carnival Miracle on March 26th and just a couple of questions as we are first time cruisers on Carnival.

     

    1. We bought the FTTF, what is the earliest we should arrive to the Long Beach port?

     

    2. We booked an extended balcony (7170) anyone have experience with this cabin, or its location?

     

    3. We would love to make a reservation for the chefs table, sent an e-mail a couple of days ago but haven't heard anything back yet, is that normal? We also want to do the Steakhouse, but not on a formal night, so what would the best nights be? We also don't want to make the reservation during one of the stage shows.

     

    4. Are there any LGBT events on board?

     

    5. Are any of the spa services worth it?

     

    If anyone else has any tips please don't hesitate to post. I've been reading these forums and I'm absorbing so much information!
