Not true at all.  Carnival still has the free bottle of wine on the first night in the steakhouse. 

Just received an email from Carnival offering a free bottle of wine the first night of our cruise leaving Sunday.

Never seen anyone win on that one. However, I have seen several win on the keyhole game.

I've never tried either.

When needed, they must be replacing old lamps with new ones with ports. I guess it's just a crap shoot.

I better take the plug-in charger.

Thanks

Don't get a suite as we can't/won't cruise without a suite anymore...

We had a Grand Suite for 14 days on our last cruise and will be in a balcony cabin on our next. No problem. We've gone back to a balcony after a suite several times and loved each cruise.

Going on the Glory this month and have forgotten whether or not there are USB ports in the cabin or do I need to bring my own plug ins.

We nearly quit sailing with them when they stopped the mints on pillows. (kidding!)

My wife and I use our own sail and sign cards in the casino, but it all is charged to one credit card in my name. I am always getting casino offers (including DOU), while she gets nothing. Is all the credit for playing going to me, even though she plays as much as I do?

Thank you! We haven't been there since our honeymoon, which was 45 years ago this month. Our first cruise (on the Emerald Seas cruise ship). Going back this month on Glory.

Where does Carnival dock in Freeport? (or something close to it).

Had only once and once was enough. Never again!

2 and 6. 

Thanks. 

We've only been on 14 day Carnival cruises the last 4 years. Because I'm old and forgot, when is the elegant night on a 7 day?

Another vote for 'don't care'. Even had John Heald on a cruise years ago - not really impressed.

Thanks for the advice. We do have a lawyer because it happened out of state at a doctor's appointment visit and our bills are very high. But the driver who hit us barely had any insurance so it's not looking great. But it will be ok.

You should be able to file under your own policy's uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (if your policy has this) after the other party's insurance is exhausted.

We had cabin 11480, exactly one level above 10468, and loved the larger balcony. Here are some pics: https://photos.app.goo.gl/1aFs4b1VjW7poKHu6. 

 

Thanks for the pics. We have this type booked on the 10/23 18 day transatlantic cruise on the Jubilee.

After seeing your pics, it looks like a good choice.

In March, we flew into Long Beach instead of LAX. Very small and easy compared to LAX. Had a 1:00 return flight and had to wait a long time at the airport. It was simple to get there and very quick. I don't remember when we left the ship, but we were at Long Beach Airport about 10.

Couldn't care less. Boring. But, just my opinion. Hope everyone else enjoys it.

We always go to a 'doc in the box' here.

It took us about 30 minutes this morning at American Family Care.

Is it one bottle of water per Platinum person or one per stateroom? 

Per platinum person. The laundry is also per person. We'll get a total of 10 bags on our upcoming cruise even if the suite doesn't include one.

We sail Sunday in a GS and have not received this notice.

I usually just book two connecting balconies and have them open the balcony divider. It's perfect for the two of us.

Wouldn't that be a lot more expensive than a suite?

Outside, I just slide it over my bald spot at the back of my head. That way, it doesn't get sunburned.

Yes. Except for priority boarding if it's in the near future. Go to the Carnival site and find VIFP benefits.

There are several, but many are watered down during Covid.

It's because it's Hawaii, I was told. I was also told I would not be able to use a recovery letter from my Dr. (along with my early January positive test) to avoid pre-cruise testing, but I could skip the next two.

I called back and a different lady told me I could avoid all three tests with a recovery letter. 

Figures! What do I do now?
