Depends which pier. Probably 6 minutes from Langosta in town. Possibly from Puerta Maya with traffic. We always walk from International.
Ahh ok, we cruise Carnival so we come from Puerta Maya.

Yes I booked and paid the $8. Google says it's a 6 minute walk. El Cid looks closer but is $65. I'm probably only going to spend 2 to 3 hours there
I didn't realize it was that close of a walk. It seemed like a 6-minute drive but it's been awhile since I went.

Have you been recently? Are they limiting the menu and plates still as reported?
The last time I went was Dec 21. They weren't doing anything like that then. I also didn't see anything on their website about it.

If the description says 10%, then it needs to be changed, because $59.95 is not a 10% savings on $64.95.
I'd have to agree there, that is a bit misleading. Was it 10% before the recent price change? I can't remember what the old cost was per day.

Do you book it in advance?
Yes, we book it in advance. Pay the deposit which I believe is $8 a person and pay the remainder when you check in. It is within walking distance but we took a cab. It was not expensive.

Del Mar is great. We have been and will be going again on our next cruise.

FWIW I ran the numbers out of curiosity and came up with the same figure as Carnival. Can’t see a reason why you came up with $891 price.
They believed that by purchasing the package early they would receive a 10% discount. 10% off of $990.38 makes it $891.34. The confusion was that by purchasing early you already receive a 10% discount off the price vs buying it onboard.

In the end, those two pockets of Houston traffic weren’t too bad at all. I ended up pulling in right on time based on Apple Maps. Made that drive a hundred times, and that was easy as it’s ever been.
I live in Houston, the only time those two pockets don't have traffic is about 1-5 AM lol

Flight lands at 7:00 AM and we usually try to get the 10:00-10:30 AM boarding time. Where is the best place to chill between then? We probably won't have huge suitcases since it's only a 4 night cruise but we will have some luggage to keep up with.

Will this be on every ship and what is the time available?
John said it would depend on each ship to set their own times.

I agree and think the OP's concern is that the pair going on one excursion is under separate cabin bookings. I am among those that don't think there will be an issue, which I think is just about everyone. If it is causing the OP unnecessary worry, it is easy enough to confirm.
I'm not worried, per se. Just wondering if it was an issue really. I didn't want the line to get held up or there be issues trying to leave the ship for the two of them.
If everyone is saying it is not a problem, then I am cool with that. We have just never experienced doing it this way before and it was a question that popped up between the wife and I the other night while we were getting things ready.

Linking the accounts will allow for booking excursions, but what about the parent in one cabin taking the child staying in the other off ship?
This is what I’m wondering about. We are linked as far as companions but I think that just lets us eat together and book excursions together. The issue of my wife and daughter getting off together is what I’m trying to figure out.
-
They were done under separate accounts. She used an offer on her log-in to book her room and then she used my log-in to book an offer under mine. So I haven't see a way to link them.

I have a situation that we haven't experienced before but I know isn't unique, just not sure what to do. My wife, two kids, and I are cruising next week. To get the best value we booked two rooms on two different bookings. Her and our son in one booking, I and our daughter in the other.
We have separate room numbers and separate booking numbers. At one of the stops my wife and my daughter are going on an excursion and my son and I are staying on. How does Carnival handle this? According to my booking they know nothing about my wife and son in the other room. When they scan my daughters sign and sail card and see its not me trying to take her off, how will they see that?
I am sure there is a simple solution we just haven't dealt with this scenario yet.

Glad you enjoyed the Breeze. I agree with you ob Progresso. I was there last month and thoroughly enjoyed walking the streets there. Way cheaper beer and food than Cozumel.
Where is a good place to eat? I've never been to Progresso but going in November.

I find it interesting that I read so many varying experiences on the same cruise.
The FB group I'm in for a sailing on the Breeze next week has comments from people who share a significantly differing opinion of the capacity / crowded-ness on this most recent cruise.
Of course I have no way of validating anyone's comments from that cruise, so I'm just going next week with an open mind.
Are you on the Dec 2 sailing?

What are some good tequilas and which should we avoid? We were scammed our first trip.
I am not sure which ones are the best. There is only one specific one I am looking for.

Yes but only asking if YOU have anything to declare . There is no random selection for going through luggage . It is strictly voluntary to declare on your part .
I don't mind paying the tax, just wanted to prepare for it if it was still there.

Is TABC still at the Galveston terminal collecting tax on liquor brought back from Mexico? I haven't seen any posts about it in awhile, just wondering if it was still going on.

Tequila is available in the port shops at all 3 piers. Also at the 2 supermarkets just south of downtown, MegaMart and Chedraui within a block of each other and there's a large liquor store, Covi, not that far away. La Europea, in front of Mega also has a good selection but higher prices than Mega.
Thank you for the information. I appreciate it.

In one of our previous visits to Cozumel we visited some shops downtown and purchased some tequila that was only made in Mexico. I would like to get some more but I have no idea where we found it.
Does anyone know of any local liquor stores in downtown? We are looking to do an excursion this visit. So I just wanted to take a quick trip downtown before we get back on the boat to see if I can find it.

I know cigar smokers are allow allowed on certain decks and places within those decks. Do any of the places where cigar smoking is allowed have drink service? Enjoying a nice smoke takes at least a hour or so and being able to have drinks during that time would be nice.

Book, Nachi Cocum, $55, All day, all you can eat and drink. Fantastic place. http://www.cozumelnachicocom.com/

Not everyone in the group is willing to pay $55. So we have to go somewhere where some people can be cheap. That is why I asked about Carlos 'N' Charlies.
-
They said just show up at the location and tell them you want to do the all inclusive. It is $55 for 3 hours and you get a lunch. They said the all inclusive is for anything on the menu.

I carry what few items I don't check in a backpack. This makes it easier to throw it on and walk around. We don't check sodas, water, or anything, so we don't have much in our carry-on.
