How long of a ride is it from havensight to sapphire beach?

Finally got my request approved and then submitted today. 
 

Will this show up someplace on carnivals website once approved?

Doesn’t anyone unplug the toaster???  Gotta save electricity where we can. Drives my family crazy! 😏

Be ready early and carry your luggage off. We were off the boat before they made the announcement so moved very fast. We were told 7:00, but went to the lobby about 6:40 and walked right off.

I would not -- we don't drink it and I hate the coffee smell!

What were the hours for the BBQ? Is it open all day or just at lunch?

What's the best way to get to Chankanaab from the ship? Do they have buses waiting for you or do you need to take a taxi?

Missing a week of college classes would be a dumb thing to do for a vacation. Take the vacation at another time of the year. Thanksgiving, Christmas break, spring break or the 3 1/2 months they are usually off from early May thru Mid- August.

I'm on the cruise later this year.....what nights are the formal dinners?

Can you let me know who you've booked this through?

It's an offer only available to certain people......sadly, it's not on my or my wife's list of Amex offers.

There are several Caribbean countries that require you to have at least six months left on your passport in order to visit them even on a closed loop cruise. It would be a good idea to check and see if your port is one of those.

What countries REQUIRE a passport? I've been on a few closed loop cruises and doing another later this year...and always gotten by with a BC / DL combo....

I If I crave fried chicken, I will go to the lido deck. I like having different food options in the dining room. There is no need to change it just because someone wants simpler foods.

They had fried chicken last week on the Liberty's American Table menu -- I think it was Weds on our 7 night cruise. I didnt actually get it, I think I had the BBQ ribs that night.....

My overall impression of the American Table menu was that most nights I could find something to eat (and I'm a picky eater)....but it leans heavily on sea food many nights (and we dont eat sea food). They also didnt often have a normal/plain salad typically. There is always a chicken / flat iron steak option if all else fails...which I had a couple of nights.

Both my wife and other table mates say to avoid the pies if you like the taste of sugar. They tried pies on 2 or 3 nights combined and always agreed that they seemed to have it missing....Other desserts such as the Smores Parfait and Sticky Brioche bun -- which were new to me -- were very good.

Our service varied -- it had been nearly 8 years from our last cruise and some nights were quicker than others. One evening when it was just the 2 of us it took over 30 mins to get our appetizers...other nights we were done and gone just after 7.

Also, while on the subject of servers....we were NEVER offered any drinks other than pouring water....and coming at the end asking if we wanted coffee. After a week of drinking water for dinner there, I asked if they had lemonade I could have with dinner and they brought me a glass. Breakfast in the dining room was the same way -- if we didnt speak up for milk or juice, they made no mention of it being an option.

The Liberty had tons of trivia last week.....seemed like it was going on 3 or 4 times a day at least down in the lobby.

dont forget it's a 45 minute drive (assuming no traffic issues) from the boat to the airport....and depending on the time of year, MCO security can be a bit backed up with people leaving Disney.

Last Sunday, I can't say when they let off the self assistance group -- but the first call on the Liberty for those with luggage tags in group 1-5 were called down at 8:15.

I think you would be cutting it real close with a 10am flight...

no surcharge on the Liberty from last week either...

Craig was still cruise director on our cruise last week.

Just was there yesterday on the Liberty.

The boat got into port around 7am or so....they called for groups 1-5 around 8:15.

That said, even with a group 3 tag -- it was close to 9 before we had our luggage and made it to the bus for the ride to the airport (which didnt leave until it was full around 930)

At that point, US colleges will be in school....as most finish up their years in early May.

So you may have some HS kids on the boat....but you shouldnt have any college students.

We're also on this deck in Feb -- Rm 2396....which looks to be the back half of the middle part of the floor.

Assigned by Carnival on an OV guarantee. Anyone with input? Is that right below the kitchen?

Liberty - 02-15-2015

Oceanview GTY

Assigned: Oceanview Category 6C on Main Deck Midship

Cabin was assigned 34 Days Out.

We did that walking tour a few years ago and it was easy and pretty interesting --- not to mention FREE!!

If you're up to the walking, I'd recommend it.

no guilt here

We will be making our first stop in Roatan in Feb on the Carnival Liberty and would like to do a zipline /beach combo thru someplace other than the ship.

In looking online, below are a couple of places we found that offer what we're looking for (although I'm sure there are plenty more).

http://www.shoreexcursioneer.com/roatan/canopy-zip-line-beach-break.html

Anyone ever used either of these companies or have another that they recommend?

Ideally we would be picked up / dropped up within walking distance of the dock and not have to find our own transportation to the tour and also be able to spend at least 60-90 mins at the beach.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Wonder what the cost will be? We will be on the Liberty next February and it might be nice to have.
