Thank you everyone for the replies!  I have always purchased it early and I just forgot to do it this time 

I forgot to order the distilled water for my husbands c-pap machine and everything is closed. Does anyone know if I can call once I’m on the ship to like guest services or room service?

Can you use it on the casino?  I could easily lose all my credits there!

Have you tried booking online with the Carnival code of P41? We are staying there in 3 weeks and the code worked for us for that night. We always stay at the Maya and always get the cruise w/parking Carnival rate. Its worth a try

Maya is the best choice as far as we are concerned! We are using them for a 14 night cruise and the additional 7 nights were just $10 a night. We love the Maya and stay there for all our cruises out of Long Beach

Absolutely beautiful......we leave in a little over 10 weeks and watching this just makes me more excited to go! This is our first cruise to Alaska and I have waited 33 years to go. Looks like I will not be disappointed:D:D:D:D

If you call the Maya, you can get the park and cruise rate for $140. I love that hotel.

We have stayed at the Maya several times and absolutely LOVE it but I couldnt find the rate this time....a friend called direct and was told they no longer do a "Carnival" rate! Hotel Current also said they would keep the car the duration of our cruise which, 13 days parking is almost $250:eek:.......and the hotel was $149...$166 with taxes....so it's a really good deal!

What does Trip Advisor say? Also look at the neighborhood on Google Maps.

Good idea....Thanks, I will do that! Just was hoping to get a first hand experience from someone!

I just booked the snooze and cruise package at the Hotel Current......seemed like a really good deal to me....has anyone ever stayed there? Is it a nice hotel in a decent part of Long Beach (we have stayed in some areas of town where I was afraid to leave my room) Any review would be good to hear!

Anyone on the Inspiration lately? Wonder if it is still the coffee set? If anyone has been on in the last few weeks and got the platinum gift could you let me know? Doesn't really matter....I am cruising no matter what.....just curious!

If you have a verizon account they now have all of these points you can use to get a discount on items...the $100 Carnival card costs $90

Enjoy Ensenada!!! Go to Hussong's and the taco stand next door to it. Best tacos in Ensenada IMHO!!!

My favorite place in Ensenada to get my fish tacos! Love em!

Thanks Arizonagirl14...I am trying to decide how much to purchase and I don't want to have a lot of funds left at the end of my cruise...its a short one! Been on enough cruises to have a general idea of what the DH and I will spend! This would just be my first with these giftcards!

I guess what I am trying to ask is...if I use them as soon as I get on board to set up my cash account and I don't use the entire amount....do they give me a refund at the end of the cruise like they do for regular cash deposit?

If you apply an e-card to your sail -n-sign and you don't use the full value, do you get a refund? I understand with cruise cash there is no refund! I want to buy enough to cover my bill, but if I don't use it all I would like to get back my money!
