Venezia braved the elements and successfully sailed under the bridge. Emerald Princess is still at anchor with the Escape. Emerald is scheduled to tender at Newport tomorrow which is not going to happen based on the weather for tonight and tomorrow.

Emerald Princess also dropped anchor too and is waiting out of the storm. The Venezia just left the Manhattan cruise terminal, they might drop anchor too near the bridge

i sailed twice on the venezia, i like the ship and i am sailing on the venezia twice again next year

on the VHF radio the captain said they have 6-7 chain shackles on the anchor. that is about 540-630 feet..wow that water is very very deep

Escape will be dropping anchor and will stay at the anchoring until Sunday when it will dock at 88

Escape is now sailing under the bridge:

carnival website is very drunk since last weekend maintenance period. look at the checkout price to see the true per person price . do not look at the search result pricing

guys burger can be hit and mess depending on the time and day. i had burgers that were dry and overcooked and burgers that was just ok

On Saturday the Carnival Venezia will be docked at Manhattan cruise terminal as scheduled, Emerald Princess will be docked as Brooklyn cruise terminal as scheduled. across the river at Cape Liberty, Mein Schiff 6 is already docked doing an overnight stay sailing tomorrow its going to be a busy day tomorrow for NY

Marinetraffic ship tracking website shows the Escape near the Long Island, NY coast. Today the Escape was supposed to be Halifax, NS, Canada with a scheduled arrival back in NY on Sunday It appears the Escape will be dropping anchor again in the NY Harbor on Saturday to ride out the tropical storms that is effecting the east coast this weekend

Customs and TSA is essential service and will not be effect by the shutdown. only the non essential will be completely shut down

Vision of the seas is effected by these storms, Saturday sailings is canceled and i read on other sites the ship is planning on returning on Monday For the Oasis out of Cape Liberty, it will not be a problem as the storm will be mostly over by then

Delta recently gutted their latitudes program called Skymiles now these days there is no such thing as brand loyalty. there is no more perks for being a past passenger on airlines/cruises

how is this different compare to other ports that already have a drink tax when the ship is in port?

the asian lunch buffet at seafood shack on sea days in the afternoon

once you submit final payment there is no more price adjustments

uplift is a third party and has no connections with norwegian. think of uplift as those stored based credit card that you see if your favorite store. uplift is using this 0% apr to try to get people to use this service to pay for a cruise. very similar to the ads you see in the store that say save xyz amount of money on your first purchase if you sign up for the store credit card

I am very surprised Carnival is not competing with other cruise lines that sail out of Seattle with the big mega ships: NCL has the Encore and Bliss Royal has the Quantum Of The Seas and Ovation Of The Seas Seattle has the capacity for these big ships, its kind of odd carnival is sticking to two smaller ship

its not a norwegian ship. its a ship from an expedition cruise line called aurora expeditions https://www.aurora-expeditions.com/ship-ocean-explorer/

the most likely outcome on the pearl is the ship remains in Boston an extra day like someone else posted and a port gets skipped here and there. they wont be big changes like a totally canceled cruises. they will make adjustments. for adjustments like skipping a port, there is no needed to give you any notice right now. noticed about skipping ports is usually on the day of sailing or sometime during the cruise before the port call

no. real id does not work on cruise ships. real id is only for flying and for federal places passport is the king and all you need. leave the birth cert at home

The rep is wrong. PVSA is only for US sailings, it has no effects in other country's. not the first time carnival reps give out wrong incorrect information

yes. you can always go to the cruise manager page to download and print the check in document and other things that need to be printed

I use this fan: https://www.amazon.com/O2COOL-10-Inch-Portable-Desktop-Circulation/dp/B00ATSHMIQ it has good air flow and is very easy to pack as it is mostly flat

Liberty of the Sea left a few hours earlier to get ahead of Lee and will be also be returning back to her homeport in NJ also early to avoid the storm. Will Lee also effect you?
