As someone who doesn’t even use the spa? I always book a spa cabin because of the location, they are always fabulous. Best views off the boat and best location!

Until I was on the Firenze Magic was my fav as well! 24 cruises here with Carnival and I’m booked on the Magic next year for the Feb Eastern Caribbean cruise (so excited!)

hi!!! I sail carnival for 90% of my cruises. My Daughter is 14 and son is now 12. They’ve been on 10 cruises in the last two years and I think you already did your due diligence. Every hour you might find is a bit much greene but you can adjust that as you go along though. My kids always have their own room I just ask they be in it by 10p unless they ask or are at a scheduled activity. I tell my kids the same about going into others rooms or inviting people into their room. But I don’t have the floor rule, yI find there is too many activities on various floors. My daughter is in the same boat. I can hardly tell the difference in these three images between 12.13 and last month on the Firenze at 14!

Sailed her to Bermuda last season. My only complaint was the lack of staff. Only time in the last two years (10 cruises) I’ve felt they needed more staff. I love the jaccizis that hang over the side. Watching the Statue of Liberty from the jaccuzi was amazing

OMG I’m so derp. I saw the email just as I posted! So cool!! Thank you

Are there new bookings? A few of us (myself included) stayed up until midnight to grab the rooms weeks ago for the Mermaiden voyage.

I waited until midnight and booked :x I didn’t realize they raised the prices! I kept refreshing the page until the sale popped up. Did not realize the prices rose 😮

I’ve never sailed Virgin and frankly I thought the exact same thing (and I’ma freaking Carnival cruiser!) I feel like I’m taking crazy pills adding up all the extra stuff you get on the cruise really didn’t make it all that much more. Maybe I should have taken a VV much sooner.

All booked!! Grabbed up a Balcony room. So excited, I live in San Diego so this will be fun to visit my city 😂

THANK YOU!! also Urgg sorry this info was totally on this post and I was boarding the Firenze when this was posted xD I got so excited!!

anyone know when they will start booking for these sailings?

Anyone know when they will start booking? I wanna get in on this asap!

Yes. Cabo and Bermuda I was allowed to do that! cabo was A “sail away and return” situation and Bermuda was a 3d port situation

Wow these are great replies! Thank you! Oh yes I’m once did the 2d in Cabo but I hated having to get back on the bed boat at like 6pm. Some people were staying overnight in port. I loved being off the boat past midnight in Bermuda it was so fun drinking rainwater IPAs at 1am at the Frog and Onion.

Ohh that would be great as well!! I hate leaving so darn early JUST when the good Resturants start to open. I take the 5D Ensenada/Catalina cruise a few times a year and we always leave just before things get fun! 😞 I’m gonna go look into this one! Thank you

I did a two night three day Bermuda port stay (6n cruise) two yrs ago with Carnival Magic. My hubby likes the long stays. Are there any other long port stay cruises that carnival offers? Thanks!

Yes carnival made this to be a big deal. Announced it on all their media outlets, multiple news outlets, then processed to call it their “inaugural cruise” To drum up attention, acted like it was some kinda big deal. when I booked (first day) the cruise was 100$ more per room than any other sailing on this ship and was a lot more than any other sailing this time of year. i didn’t look into it, (I should have) but the way they worded it I thought costa had just sold these ships pre sailing. I didn’t realize they were already used ships. if you care about 1sts (and I certainly do) it’s a big deal. As I said call me weird but everyone likes different things. Don’t yuck someone’s yum I always say. Disappointment can exist, I’ll tell that to your friend.

Did they pull the same crap? Claim a first cruise and then book one in front of it 6 months after everyone booked for the inaugural sailing? Cause if so Dang that’s shady!

A massive company like Carnival, that operates multiple other cruise lines and has 25+ ships just in carnivals fleet announced an Inaugural Sailing, let that sink in. A billion dollar company now decided to F off those people who paid for a cruise 8+ months ago by saying “oh no biggie we are PUSHING UP the date adding a 7 day cruise. If it was moved back? I get it. I totally understand. I’ma huge carnival fan, I’m booked on 6 carnival cruises this year alone. I’m Plat. This isn’t my first rodeo, but to pop in a 7d “inaugural” sailing?? After announcing 8 months ago and us just basically finishing off paying to announce this?? Wow. There’s no justifying this. I’m feeling LIED TO. We can make Excuses for the billion dollar company and I don’t care if I am downvoted for my comment but I am freaking PISSED. I can’t even change the date on my “inaugural cruise” I’m basically paid off at this point. To be very blunt i would not have booked this cruise if it was not the inaugural. The point was is that it was inaugural. Call me weird but I was very excited for that aspect. Moving up is not a “things changed” situation. It’s a crappy cash grab at two “inaugural sailings” and frankly I’m pissed because I’m getting her sloppy seconds on a cruise we paid premium for due to the “inaugural”sailing claim. i could take the cruise the week after for half the cost or take one of the other 5 boats in La harbor for 1/3rd the cost.

I don’t think I’vehad one on my last 7 carnival cruises ( last 14 months) I did get one on my 17d Hawaiian with Princess though

This is bull crap. I want to go on the Inaugural sailing! I booked this thing almost a year ago *****

I love to take this website for the grain of saltiness it is 😄

haha! Truth. crap it’s more like 3 drinks where I’m from! I’m not mad at the price change at all. I get it, it happens

Thank you!! I only saw that they were changing, not when! You rock

Thank you for your helpful answer!! 🙂
