  1. if the ship is sold out and is full, it is removed the sailing is removed from the website. that is normal.
  2. most of all TA obc is consider a "gift" like cruise cash which means you don't see it until either you get onboard or a few days prior to sail date
  3. on the venezia, the chef table is located inside the galley. maybe due to its location, it causes the price to increase?
  4. from what i noticed over the years, the terminal workers like the check in staff, porters and everyone else work they work for a terminal management company like Ports America, Intercruises , SMS Shore Operations and so on with the switch to norfolk, carnival should already notified whatever company they use so the crew will be ready for sunday at the new location
  5. if you can you jump ship to another cruise line, Norwegian does weekly Bermuda cruises out of NYC. the ship is in Bermuda Wednesday to Friday
  6. It was just released for debarkation of the current cruise and the embarkation for the next cruise, the ship will use Norfolk
  7. carnival press release with the news to switching to norfolk: https://www.carnival-news.com/2024/03/26/carnival-cruise-line-to-temporarily-move-baltimore-operations-to-norfolk-while-key-bridge-rescue-and-cleanup-efforts-continue
  8. Mardi Gras was scheduled to do a few cruises out of NYC: https://thepointsguy.com/news/carnival-mardi-gras-itineraries/ . That never happened due to the ship construction delays and what happen to the world back in the day I am soo looking forward to getting a excel class ship out of NYC. hopefully it actually happens in the future

  10. there is another bridge that sails under: William Preston Lane Jr. Memorial Bay Bridge
  11. worker got killed onboard, lots of articles about it: https://apnews.com/article/cruise-ship-holland-america-florida-bahamas-f2f021eae8cab30cc03b356c77bb96fa
  12. it means you can go the any specialty dinning restaurant twice. each time you can get an app, entree, sides and dessert
  13. royal and MSC both do the florida/bahamas runs so they can able to hug the coast to avoid the worse of the weather. Getaway is going to the Bermuda, in the middle of nowhere. there is no where to hide or safe options
  14. Some pictures of the damage: https://cruiseradio.net/carnival-freedom-fire-damages-funnel-again/
  15. from the pictures posted on FB, the other side of the funnel is on fire, the port side is on fire years ago, it was the starboard side funnel that caught fire
  16. only the high end category like the suites might get umbrellas
  17. booking also opens earlier based on your latitude status
  18. Ships that used to sail out of NYC: Miracle, Dream, Glory, Splendor, Vista, Horizon, Sunshine, Sunrise, Magic Vista and Sunrise did journey cruises in 2020 the Legend and Mardi Gras was planned to do a few cruises out of NYC, that never happen
  19. yes. stop by guest services with cash in hand and they will apply to your onboard account. once your account is at 0.00 the credit card you put on file will not be used
  20. another cruise line, Norwegian has their newest and greatest ship the Norwegian Viva doing port intensive itins out of san juan . looks like it is a market that carnival does not want to compete with
  21. the laundry bag is going to get soo small, you wont be able to get a sock in the bag
  22. that has not been my case. they are very clueless what ship time is, they dont know what that is. Tour operators always uses local port time in my experience, it seems to depend on the captain and the ports. i just got off the Venezia on the 12 day to the Southern Caribbean. Ship time only changed on daylight changing time, in some of the ports they was a 1 hour time difference
  23. that is correct and been that way cruise since cruising restarted many years ago. i always pay for my excursions on the checkout page
