  1. I currently have 40 cruise days with another 7 days being added in November. I am planning on two more 7 day cruises one next year and one in 2021. This will put me at 61 cruise days. I then plan to do either a 14 day cruise or back to back 7 day cruise (14 days total) in 2022 for my 25th wedding anniversary. This will put me at 75 days on the last day of the 14 day cruise or the last day of the 2nd part of the back to back. Would I be issued Platinum status at the beginning of the 14 day cruise or the back to back cruise.

  2. I was thinking of letting family know that if they want to give us an early Christmas gift or an anniversary gift to get us stuff for our cruise. I was going to give them some ideas on gifts they can buy us from Carnival like soda, candy, or room decor. I was also going to let them know that they can give us cruise cash or gift cards for Carnival instead of the gifts. Which would be better Cruise Cash or Gift Card?  I am not sure they would be able to get Gift Cards.

  3. My husband was asking me Monday how much we paid for our cruise.  I logged in to tell him the exact amount.  When I logged in it said I was eligible for an upgrade.  It was $168 total to upgrade from a balcony on deck 8 to a spa balcony on deck 12.  I took the upgrade.  Hoping that I made the right choice. Did I make the right choice?

  4. Ship- Vista

    Deck - 8

    Stateroom # - 8396

    Stateroom Category – 8D

    Starboard or Port Side - Port Side

    Quiet Stateroom? (With comments on problems) – Room was mostly quiet. A little hallway noise at times and you could here balcony doors slam shut. Balcony was mostly quiet. Would get noise from Ocean Plaza, Red Frog Pub, and Havana bar.

    Was stateroom a connecting stateroom? -Yes

    Balcony View - Give comments on view, noting if location of any obstructions was an issue. – Balcony had a good view. Could seen things on deck five.  It was port side so good for watching pier runners.

    Balcony Size? Normal or oversized for class? - Normal

    Was wind a problem? - No real wind problem. Just a couple of times it was windy on balcony 

    If an aft cabin, was soot a problem? -N/A

    Any specific problems with this cabin? - No real problems. Shower curtain smelled like mold and it was replaced. Never had a room service menu. It did not bother me. Since there is some much food available on ship.

    Any other comments? -Not far from stairs and elevator.

  5. I would love to book a cruise with the early saver rate. I cannot do this because it says no name change allowed. My husband and I have different last name for a couple of different reasons. I do not think it is right the I will have to pay more for a cruise on carnival due to different last names. For the cruise I am looking at the different in early saver and past guest is $35 a person. That is a least $70 more just because my husband and I have different last names. Is there a way around not having to pay more just because of different last names?

  6. Only one port is the same. Which to me does not matter. I have been to Cozumel on almost every cruise. I am going on the Breeze in October and we have a port in Cozumel. I am getting off and doing some shopping and then getting back on the ship to enjoy the ship.

  7. I am looking to do Back to Back cruises in January 2019 for my 50th birthday (January 2nd).

    I am looking to do either of the following

    Carnival Vista out of Galveston, Tx

    7 day to Mahogany Bay, Belize, and Cozumel followed by a 6 day to Grand Caymen and Cozumel

    or 6 day to Grand Caymen and Cozumel followed by a 8 day to Costa Maya, Mahogany Bay, Belize, Cozumel

    1. How does parking work since you do not have to get off the ship? Do you pay for both beforehand?

    2. How much is doing self laundry on ship?

    3. Which to the two choices would you recommend. The first choice is closer to my birthday however I do not care as long as I get to cruise.

    My only issues right now is time off work. I will have to take three weeks off and I am not sure if work is going to go for that.
