4 nighter--

Thanks

Anyone know what day?? Still trying to track down a fun times.

See ya there!!!

Anyone know if they do 80s glow party. Going out next week. Also anyone have a Fun Timea for recent cruise?

Thanks--PHINZ UP

We generally give them $20 on the first day and ask for the ice to be kept full. Last cruise we did that and never saw the steward again, and no ice either. We'll try it again next cruise and see what happens.

I give them a 20 every time to keep cooler full of ice and they have always taken care of me. In my smuggling days would bring a fair amount of beer etc on. They didn't care and kept all things cold.

I was actually pondering this same dilemma. So can I order my drink on my Cheers program and then pay for my floater and get it 25% off?? If I were to add a floater to my drinks under the Cheers program I could ring up my 15 drinks pretty quickly.

THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!

I totally agree. If you drink 15 drinks you are tipping about 30 cents apiece. How throwing down an extra 15$ a day makes the program not worth it me is mind boggling?? I don't think a lot of people that take advantage of this program are regular going out having cocktails kind of folks. Any bar I go to if you tip 30 cents..good luck getting bartenders attention anytime soon for your second drink.

I meant to say NOT REGULAR GOING OUT HAVING COCKTAILS KIND OF FOLKS.

Ooops

With the new lower price for the 7 day Cheers program including tip you are now tipping the equivalent of about 50 cents a drink assuming you drink about 10 drinks a day on the Cheers program. If you drink more you are tipping less per drink.

 

If that is acceptable to you, then by all means don't tip more.

 

I know it is not acceptable to me.

Yes, you have to visit Guest Services to have them applied to your account as on board credit. Keep in mind only eGift cards can be used for onboard credit, Carnival Dollars cannot!

Thanks...that's what I figured. Now for the million dollar question. If I apply 700$ in E Certs and I only use 600$ worth...WHAT HAPPENS TO THE LEFT OVER??

Question?? If I buy the GIFT CARDS I can buy cruise cash before the cruise?? I just paid for my cruise using the E-Certs. Its my understanding the "E-CERTS" have to hand carried and applied on board. I was hoping to not have to spend anytime at the pursers desk if possible.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

My husband carried 3 bottles of wine onto the Dream in his backpack, no questions asked. We weren't trying to hide them, there were three of us, I just let him carry them all. I wrapped each in a t-shirt and stood it in the backpack. But, my mom & I got separated from him going through security. When I thought of it later, I asked him if they gave him any trouble about the 3 bottles, and he said they never even acknowledged it was there. His bag came through the screener and he grabbed it & kept going. Meanwhile, mom & I get pulled aside so they can open my sealed case of water & hold the bottles up to the light....

I was coming back from Coz and had beer bottles in my backpack that I totally forgot about. Heard them "chink" when I laid it down on xray machine. I was like what was that?? By the time I remembered.. backpack with hot bottles of beer through scanner and no one said a word?? Go figure. If I had been trying to sneak it on would have been nailed for sure!

I just got my FttF excursion for Carnival Breeze 3/14 sailing to Eastern Caribbean and there are 4 left. 9/9 at 2pm CT

How do you find out how many are left?? Do you have to book to find out?? Looking to sail next week but have not booked. Would love to find out if any FTTF are left.

Thanks

NEVER MIND..found out.

I know, what a shame. Maybe one day though.

 

BTW, my name is not Louise and I am lightened up. When I tell you to drop and do 20 pushups every mile of a 5 mile run, then you can ask me to lighten up. :D

 

It has nothing to do with booze, it has everything to do with following rules/orders/regulations/laws. I've been around long enough to know that one who does everything they can to circumvent one rule, usually does it for all rules they don't like.

Yes that is me ..general rule breaker and part time smuggler!!! Its just BOOZE!! Btw..Im a person Carnival loves!! My large bar tabs pay for at least half the fuel for the trip! They make zero money on the random bingo playing, 10 dollar store shopper, and T shirt cruiser!!! Btw...my liquor WILL NEVER SPILL...Two words...RUM RUNNERS!

Never say Never. ;)

 

No, it would not cut down on smuggling. NCL does the same, bring as much as you want and pay $15 per bottle. Hasn't slowed the smuggling as people don't want to pay the corkage fee either. And I highly doubt that the level of smuggling has changed either. Denying boarding or kicking people off ship......that would put a dent in smuggling and maybe one day Carnival will get fed up enough to grow a pair and enforce their rules or say the hell with it and remove that rule. Either one works for me.

Geesh louise...lighten up! Not sure why someones bottle of smuggled rum would interfere with your cruise, safety or fun! To each his own. Its just a cruise and its just a few peeps with some booze! Not a felony....yet!

Ok so which one seems to be the best and easiest to get to?? We will have a LONG port day. BCH looks laid back and chill. Sandals looks pretty darn nice. Not sure about Breezes or Melia. RIU doesn't look up to my speed so to speak. So far we are leaning Sandals or BCH. We enjoy adult beverages and sometimes to many..:):) so maybe Sandals would be better deal??

Any suggestions??

THANKS

Will be there late Sept so I'm assuming not terribly busy??
