sometimes yes and sometimes no. it depends on the itinerary. i see a few ships replace portland with rockport, maine
Nothing official so far on why but this might give you some clues on what could be happening : https://www.themainewire.com/2022/08/opinion-initiative-to-restrict-cruise-ship-passengers-not-portland-friendly/
it looks like they built a temporary stage above the pool area. I wonder how this is logistical possible with the short time around with setting up, tear down and hauling everything on/off the ship before and after this special cruise
they are various laws that prevents a cruise ship from going between US ports without visiting a foreign port of call
the quickest way for a ship to go between US ports is by sailing empty with no passengers
NYC is just as bad. Everyone considers parts of New Jersey, Westchester and Connecticut to be New York City
New York City is suppose to be just the 5 boroughs of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx and Staten Island
i noticed this oddity on all carnival ships ive been on. it is like when they built the ship they never put in extra crew elevator or some kind of service elevator . other cruise lines like norwegian use the crew elevators for luggage
I noticed the same thing. It makes it very time consuming to check pricing for any price drops
Other cruise lines have better search that lets you put the number of people in the search
The remaining balance stays on the card. You can use these funds for things in the cruise planner like shore excursions, drink package ,etc etc or you can use it at guest services to add it to your onboard account
that is very strange. when i was on the sunshine cruise to no where a few week ago, i got a print out and i still have my print outs from my two magic cruise last year
only you can answer that question. there is no correct answer. if you really need help then you should seek advice from a finance advisor instead of the forums here
the only benefit you get from the stocks is OBC. you will need to cruise a ton to get back the money from OBC to equal what you spent on stocks
it appears St Lucia has 4 berths for cruise ships and there were 4 cruise ships scheduled. 3 out of the 4 cruises successfully docked. something had to happen and it is not tendering related
