Sorry if this has been asked but my search did not return anything recent.. 

we are platinum status with Carnival. we get very good deals due to casino play. We would like to try MSC and I read somewhere that they status match carnival.. how is the best way to find out more info.. do they match casino play also? 

Thank you!

Its been a few years since we were on the Magic so I cannot remember.. but does the Coffee shop on sell individual cans of Pepsi and Bottle water?

What a fantastic deal!

 

I booked the April cruise to Eastern Caribbean on the Carnival Breeze, and my sister is coming with me. Happy dance!!!

I got that same offer in the mail but I cannot see it online yet.

I agree

Thanks everyone.. I booked it already and it did not give me a breakdown.. just a total of $168.   I think I will email my PVP and let him figure it out. 🙂

Since we can now use the OBC to book things in advance, I have a question if anyone knows... 

There are 4 of us.. 2 cabins.. we each have $100 OBC. 

 If I book the steakhouse for all 4 of us (bookings are linked) and use OBC to pay for it, will it take the equal $ from each person or pull all from one cabin?  Reservation includes both cabins and lists all 4 names..  Anyone know?

I just attempted to schedule a covid test appointment at CVS, however the travel option is no longer available. Has anyone else encountered that? 

Yes, we went to schedule ours for our March 19th cruise and the travel question is not there.. Answer the questions honestly and says not covered and will cost $138 each!  My medical clinic at work will do the test for us but is that acceptable?  It is a  RN but no physician on site.. Results on company letterhead..  I think i may call Carnival and ask.. those would be free.. 

Thanks everyone. I can get to it via the email, just thought a direct link on the NCL website would be much easier.. 

This may have been asked before and if so, please forgive me.. I searched several times but never got the thread with the answer. 😞 

Where on the website or app can I see my upgrade bid?  Just the bid amount and cabin.. i know its way to early to see results yet, just like to keep a check on things.  Is it even on there or do I have to go to the email and get in that way every time?  

Thanks in advance!

i have received the option to upgrade our upcoming cruise. Can I only choose one category to submit a bid on or can I submit bids on multiple categories? First time cruiser with NCL.  Thanks in advance

Odd question I know.. but, here goes...  Since the restart to cruising, has anyone ever scheduled a walmart order delivery to the hotel?  We are cruising out of Miami in a few weeks. we are flying in this trip instead of driving.. we normally take sodas and wine onboard, which is easy since we normally drive. Thinking of doing a walmart deliver order for our wine and sodas and have it delivered to the hotel after we check in.. Think that is possible?

. 

I thought that we only needed the card given when we got the vaccine? Has that changed? We sail week from Saturday.. 

Anyone sailing this week on the Mardi Gras in a Premium Extended forward facing Balcony? If so please share your thoughts and some pics if possible. Currently booked in one leaving in 2 weeks, curious of your thoughts on it!

I can confirm I was able to log into Pokémon Go with the premium package but there were no Pokémon at sea. Plenty in ports like Cozumel though!

Thanks! 

Don't laugh.. Asking for a friend.

On our September cruise, one person in our party is a die hard pokemon addict.. If they purchase the premium internet package, will  pokemon still work at sea?  Or does it not work at all?

Thank You!

Hi everyone.  Any Suite/Platinum/Diamond status folks that have already sailed?  I know that Suite/Platinum/Diamond are not getting priority boarding at this time, but does anyone know if the cabins are still ready when you board? We are Platinum and usually go to room soon as we board and drop off our carry-ons. If this is not an option right now, I will need to rethink my carry-on packing. 🙂  Thanks in advance!  

Thanks everyone!  I think we decided to save our points and book a suite next time we book! 

Hi everyone! This may be a crazy question but here goes... We have a cruise booked already.. but just realized that we have over 100,000 points on the carnival credit card that will cover $1500 on a cruise.. Our cruise did not cost us but less than $700 and that charge has already posted to the CC account.  IF I change cabins to one that the total is $1500 will they pull back the $700 charge for the initial booking and do another charge for the full $1500 or will they just add the additional information $800?  to use the 100K in points on the CC, it has to be one charge of 1500 or more and not a total of two charges.. from what we see and have read? anyone have any experiences with this?

what does the current voyage type Restricted mean?

It is basically a FREE CHEERS PACKAGE and only for the person who receives the offer, unless your cabin mate also received the same offer.  I am going with my hubs, he does not gamble, therefore he did not receive this promotion and I did and will received it.

 

Hope it helps.

Thanks! Same with us.. I am the gambler.. he is not 🙂. But does that start the minute we are on the ship? is it just in the system or do I need some kind of card or something? 

How does the drinks everywhere work? anyone know?  This is the first time I have had this offer available (always only have the drinks while playing in casino).  Do I have to wait until the casino opens to get a card or something? Also, is this for both of us in the cabin? or only me?

Hi All, we are seasoned cruisers but first time with NCL. We are at 70 days out and I have just gotten a new job. I am not sure that I am going to be able to get the time off work to go. We did purchase the standard insurance when we booked.  reduced air was a perk when we booked and flights have been scheduled.  IF I have to cancel or postpone this trip, will we get our $$ back? we are paid in full and have a couple excursions already booked.  Thanks in advance!
