What did you end up getting when you booked a Guarantee cabin?
live.love.cruise replied to Aussie Jeep's topic in MSC Cruises
I booked a Bella inside on the Seascape and was upgraded to a balcony. And instead of purchasing the spa passes for $145pp, I submitted/won a bid for $160pp to upgrade to a Aurea balcony. -
Yay, great, thank you!

Hello, I tried searching here and online with no success. I’m visiting Taino Bay in April via MSC. Does anyone know if there’s a place @ port for massages? Price? Location? Thanks in advance for any info!
-
Yes, I will be stalking the site often throughout the day until I'm ready to book. I can't travel until the end of the month, so hopefully the deal will stick around til then.
-
My $50 offer returned today. Hopefully the offer will stick around a few weeks to allow me to book one during my planned vacation days.

Is Sunshine always so dirty?
live.love.cruise replied to Momto3girlsintheCarolinas's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Yes, it was in the same condition when we sailed for New Years earlier this year. We stayed in a "suite" that was old/ worn and the curtains were so dusty as if no one had cleaned or stayed in the cabin for years lol. This was my least favorite ship/cruise. It wasn't even worth the casino rate we paid. A couple months later we sailed another "older" ship (Pride) and it was completely different. The ship was very clean , well maintained, and the staff seemed happy. I can't say the same about the Sunshine. There's enough ships out there to try another one. -
Same here. I no longer have the $50 offer. My offer had a 9/30 expiration date. Hoping I get a new one next month.

There was no play requirement for the last minute $50 casino offers I've received. They come with a $50 onboard credit per person.

The $50 deals change often, I assume they pop up as others are cancelling at the last minute. I research the cruises I want in advance so that I'm ready when it appears. I refresh the deal page often throughout the day, lol. Also, I've noticed the cabins are usually for two people, haven't had a chance to add a third to any of the cruises I've seen. Because of this once I see the one I want I click on the price listed under cabin type which takes me straight to the booking page vs clicking on "start booking" because the cabin will be gone by the time you go through the additional steps. I was able to grab a $50 8 night Panama Canal cruise in March. I currently have the same offer, almost booked the Celebration for next week but I want to cruise later this year. Good luck!

Not silly @ all. By day 4/5 on a week long cruise I start to crave potato chips, even though I don’t eat them often @ home. Never thought much about it til reading your post.

We just got off the Pride today and had cabin 4114. We loved the location, close to the theatre (it was great walking a few steps to our cabin when shows were over vs dealing with the crowds at stairs/elevator), easy access to all the action on the decks below/above. Also enjoyed the full window which let in lots of light between the lifeboats. We did hear music from the piano bar below but it wasn’t loud enough to keep us awake at night.

I was against lanyards for years and would put my card in back pocket, wristlet, someone else’s pocket or wristlet lol. That was until my mom brought me a rhinestone “bling” one a couple years ago….I love it and wear it every cruise.

Best Carnival value youve booked?
live.love.cruise replied to havanadaydreaming's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
That’s a great deal! $20 is usually my casino limit but recently increased to $40 or $60 max per cruise lol, to increase the casino offers. My offers are random or last min deals. My best non casino was about $1300 ( +$200 OBC) for an extended balcony for two on the Mardi Gras for New Years ‘21/‘22. -
Best Carnival value youve booked?
live.love.cruise replied to havanadaydreaming's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Thank you! I’ve been looking at the tour options in Limon. I plan to get off since there’s only two port days. -
Best Carnival value youve booked?
live.love.cruise replied to havanadaydreaming's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Yesterday I booked an inside cabin on the Pride, 8n Panama Canal (partial transit). It was $50 pp with $50 pp OBC. It was a last min casino offer that I’ve had for the last few weeks and was waiting specifically for this one. I don’t spend much in the casino so this was a surprise deal that I couldn’t resist. -
Same here, I rarely receive good offers but had a last min $50pp casino offer for the 8 night Panama Canal cruise this month but couldn’t take off the time from work. Hope to see this deal for upcoming sailings.

Horizon - Hot, hot, hot (and no, not in a good way)
live.love.cruise replied to acsfl's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
We had an interior aft cabin on deck 6 on the 5/28 sailing; no issues with the air in our cabin. I agree with others and the OP regarding lack of air in public areas. It was miserable at times. I almost melted lol while waiting on line to eat at JiJi’s for lunch one day. -
I was on this cruise and wondered the same thing. I asked those I was traveling with but they didn’t notice the difference so I thought I was “crazy”. Thanks for posting. Hopefully someone will know the answer.

Live from Horizon 5/22 sailing
live.love.cruise replied to Mike Dante's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Thanks for posting this live review; we’re boarding on Saturday. Enjoy your cruise! -
Pre pandemic I always got off (except Nassau) the ship but now I’m in such a lazy chill mode that I don’t get off unless it’s a new port. I’m starting to like staying onboard and enjoying the ship while others are off. We sailed the Oasis 5 years ago and have cruised several times since and it’s still my favorite. Bored? No way! There’s so much to see and do and eat onboard, you will have a great time! Enjoy!
