As a former Disney Co. cast member (not in parks) of over 22 years, I totally agree with the above posters, do it on a land based trip.

Do whatever you feel comfortable with. To each their own. That being said, we give $2-$2.50 per bag.

Boddentours.com, etc. Highly recommend them.
Agree fully. We have used them a couple of times and they were enjoyable.

Fog is a common issue in Tampa during winter months. Will it be there every day, of course not, but can you predict it way ahead of time, of course not. Sure, like the above poster there will be days without the issue but don't count on it.

Sorry, I do love Carnival but when I think of the branded sandwiches onboard I give Shaq a 9 and guy fieri a 2.
Food tastes are subjective. I'll take Guy's burgers over Shaq's chicken any day.

Dave, see above. The OP does state they are across the street from the terminal.

There's a resort right across the street from the terminal (can't recall the name) so it shouldn't be bad at all.

When I cruise out of Port Canaveral, I stay at POP Century precruise, take an Uber back to the airport and take the Carnival Cruise bus to Port. I sail solo also and I think it was about $40 Uber to airport and then $31 one way on Carnival to port. I could have taken Mears Connect from POP to MCO for $16 instead of Uber. By taking Uber, I got picked up about 8 am and was able to be on the first bus to port.
She's cruising NCL not Carnival. Does the Carnival bus actually take folks cruising on other lines?
-
Personally, and that's exactly what I mean, not for anyone else, to each their own, but I would do the hotel near MCO and Cortrans to the port. Not an Uber user very often but I would guess (I could be wrong) that an Uber from Disney to MCO would be cheaper than Disney to Port Canaveral and possibly easier to arrange and also Cortrans would be easy and cheaper. YMMV

I would love to be able to purchase for a shorter cruise and take the leftovers home with me. Since 7 days cruises are {often/generally) more port intensive I doubt I would drink anymore on a 4/5 day than I would on a 7, but that's just me I guess.

I'm pretty sure the OP knows this. As already said, it is just commonly done. Not something to get too worked up about, IMO.
Don't count on it. I've seen plenty of interviews where young folk couldn't even locate the US on a world map. And, whose worked up? Just stating a fact.

If you haven't been reading about Guys Fries then you haven't been reading or you haven't been paying attention.

Being in the deep south doesn’t help…had a great breakfast buffet earlier this year in Miami, which is nearly as far South as possible, but the gravy was like some type of paper mache or wallpaper glue!!
It’s the ability to cook “southern style” that eludes most of these “chefs”!Geographic location may be way south but population wise, Miami is hardly 'southern'.

Great, but now you can't pre-order for your cabin.😠

Got to remember too, even though the ship is ported out of SC, the crew cooking is likely from somewhere in Asia. And yes, I agree, the biscuits are probably pre-packaged and frozen.

Heck, I've been to a lot of restaurants here in the south that can't make good sausage gravy.

We asked for, and were provided, with paper menus on the liberty and Mardi Gras.

We have used VRBO many times without problems. Remember, these are individual owners, not an entire company, and each experience may be different. Read the reviews before deciding. We find that if the majority are good, and well written, the rental is usually just fine. You may find one or two who were unhappy (you can't please everyone and some just scam looking for their money back) but if most are good, you should be good to go. Just our experience, YMMV.

I called the aquarium and they told me that with your purchase of an admission ticket they DO have complimentary luggage storage for cruise passengers.

Hi,
Our cruise from NJ first stop will be Cape Canaveral. We wanted to go to Kennedy space but I think the time we are there would make it difficult . So I saw the Wizard of Oz museum the port . My question can we walk to the Museum ? Is there any other things we should consider that is within walking distance ? Not looking for restaurants or bars .
thank you
Kelly
No, not very walkable. If your ship docks north of the drawbridge, you cannot walk across the bridge. If you dock at terminal 1 it's about a 2.5 to 3-mile walk, much without sidewalks. It is not at the port.
-
We were on Liberty in September and could smell it in different places around the ship although I must say, it wasn't overpowering.
-
Like I said, doesn't mean it will happen every time.
-
Last time I was down there Carnival had a huge office in Miami (Doral), don't know if they still do.

No, Carnival doesn't offer an order form. It would be great if they did. You have to call ahead if you can even get a call through or order when you board.
On our last cruise when filling out the check-in it asked if I had a CPAP and did I need distilled water. I did not add anything else and there was an extension cord in my cabin upon arrival. Doesn't mean this will happen every time but I have always been asked in the terminal if a cord was needed.
