We are a party of 3 and will be on the Carnival Freedom, with a stop on Princess Cay. I see the Umbrella and Lounger rental under Carnivals excursions is for 2 people. Would we have to rent 2? Can one of us just put a towel down nearby? Thanks for the help.

Change of plans. We need to get from a Disney hotel to Port Canaveral. Don’t want to rent a car. What suggestions do you have? Any idea of cost of Uber/Lyft on a Saturday morning?
-
What are the options for renting a car from Port Canaveral? I’m assuming all rental options will pick you up at the port and shuttle you to their office.

What port? Canaveral? Tampa? Port Everglades? PortMiami? Jacksonville? West Palm Beach?
Looking at 2 different cruises. Would plan Port Canaveral and MCO or port of Tampa and Tampa airport.

What are the earliest suggested flight times after disembarking for both Orlando and Tampa?

I am looking to book a cruise. At different times, different cabin types show as available. I really want an OV. If I book an inside cabin and later a OV shows as available, would I be able to switch?

Has anyone ever booked a family harbor suite for only adults? I am looking at a cruise for myself, 25 yo daughter and 21 yo son. The family harbor suites are showing available but, in reading about them, it looks like they are designed more for families with young children.

Looking to book a cruise for 3 of us. The only options are suites. If I try to book for 4, OV are available. Do these types of cabins ever become available for fewer guests, maybe as the sailing date gets closer, if they aren’t getting booked?

Correct. But call Carnival and ask them the question as a hypothetical. If you are comfortable with the answer, you say ok, we need to cancel one person. The earlier you do the cancellation, the less the penalty will be. And yes, the rest of you who don’t cancel can still cruise, likely in the same cabin as originally booked. Good luck.
It’s still actually all hypothetical at this point. We are considering booking for 4 of us but may find my husband is not able to come.

Also depends if it was Guest 1, Guest 2, Guest 3 or Guest 4
How would that make a difference?

It depends. How long until your cruise?
Early August.

If I understand correctly, depending on when we’d cancel that person, we could get some of our money back. The rest of us would just continue on with the cruise?

What happens if we book a cabin for 4, but then one person has to cancel?

We are cruising to Alaska in June on Carnival Spirit. Which port does Carnival use? We are planning to stay in Seattle for a few days before the cruise. What would be the best way to get to the ship? Afterwards, we are flying home the day we disembark. What is the best way to get back to the airport? Thanks for your help!

Thanks all. After reading through several posts, we are deciding between the Belltown Inn, Mediterranean Inn and Mayflower Park.

We are cruising to Alaska out of Seattle in June on Carnival. Looking for some hotel suggestions for a few nights pre-cruise. Thank you!

I would also call. I’ve recently seen two small price reductions for our cruise this coming June. I filled out the price protection form after the first one and got denied. I called Guest Services to ask for more information and the person I spoke to was able to change the price. A couple days later, when I saw the second reduction, I called again and they were able to apply the lower price.

Thank you all. The flight I was looking at was at 12:00.

What is the earliest flight you would book leaving Seattle after debarking from the Carnival Spirit cruise to Alaska?
-
I got a denial email this afternoon. It said it was denied because apparently I didn’t book under Early Saver. I called to ask more about it and the Carnival employee I spoke with saw the denial but was able to rebook me under a slightly lower rate. Only saved $52 but every little bit helps.

Twice I’ve had no luck with filling out the form. The first time was for a cruise last summer. Filled it out twice and never heard back. Most recently I filled one out a few days ago, for an upcoming cruise, and haven’t gotten a response yet. Planning to try calling tomorrow.

Thanks for the input. Not trying to sound dumb, but how important are waterproof shoes if we aren’t planning to do any hiking type activities? We mostly plan on sightseeing tours.

We are cruising to Alaska in late June. What clothing should we plan to pack? Thank you!
-
Thanks for all the opinions. Really appreciate it. We are cruising at the end of June. Late to booking so limited in availability. Will be re-reading all the posts and booking very soon.

Since aft isn't available, then I suggest you get a non-extended balcony on whichever side offers the best scenery (as stated above). The extended balconies are recessed and do block your clear view fore and aft. Deck 3 is an outside deck that wraps all the way around the aft and on both sides. It does not go all the way around forward though. It is covered and it is nice to have quick access to this deck (deck 4 cabins) for scenery in rainy weather. Deck 9 (lido) has good aft viewing from the serenity area and the buffet by the windows offers climate-controlled viewing. Deck 10 has good viewing outside, also. It does seem true that the wildlife will always be on the other side from where you are. So, having the ability to cross to the other side quickly is nice. Of course, everyone else will be doing the same thing. Depending on your mobility, I would get a balcony close to these decks (deck 😎 and near the stairs or elevators. I would pick a balcony towards the aft as you can access good viewing on the outer decks from there. Forward is just too windy. Hope this helps.
So, you think deck 8 aft is a good location? How loud is that area being under the Lido Deck?

Looking to rent a car for after our cruise. We will be in Port Canaveral. What is a good time to say for pickup?
