Searching for hotels and flights right now, it's really bad if you're flying from MI, flights are in the thousands for one-way 😲

The ARC LA RAMBLA looks like a good place for an overnight stay, prices are reasonable and close to the port and not far from the airport.... I may book this hotel for my pre-stay 

Go thru fly2 fun. 1508 from Grand Rapids

I am so ready to cancel our 11/27 cruise even though this is our 3rd time trying to use our FCC.  There's no way on a busy Thanksgiving weekend that we're going to be able to test on Thanksgiving Day (our 2-day window) and we're flying out on Friday for our Saturday cruise.  We are all vaccinated but still we're being forced to jump thru hoops by the CDC and I guess Carnival hasn't thought of the impossible position they are putting us in.  Why are the cruise lines allowing a bunch of bureaucrats to dictate policy.  How come people visiting Universal Studios, Disney, SeaWorld and sporting arenas around the country not being forced to be tested before entering.  Come on cruise execs do something to protect your industry before we decide to take our vacations at an AI resort.

We are in that cruise too. Reading all this, I'm wondering if it's worth it. And if mask are required inside, is that even a vacation?   Might just get a refund and go somewhere that doesn't require all this. 

We booked a inside on our upcoming Panama Cruise on the Caribbean Princess. We were offered a upsale to a balcony and took it. When we booked the inside they were offering OBC of $200 per cabin for inside and $400 for balcony. The offer was still available when we took the upsale. Do you know if they should of given us the increase in OBC? I want to call, but not if this is not something that is usually given. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance.:D

correct, can't get it this close to departure. Princess never said anything about being able to getting from attendent. How much would a taxi ride cost at night to take us to the nearest 24 hr place?

Needing to purchase distilled water for DH c-pap machine. We will be flying in at 12:30 am so we have a few hrs to kill before we are picked up around 9 am by the cruise people. Is there anywhere close to walk to buy this so we can carry on board? even to purchase at airport and how much if anyone knows. what food places will be available in and around airport at that time of night.

Will be arriving in Copenhagen May 12 at the Freeport. Have purchased e-voucher for the HOHO bus. On their brochure it says for Freeport cruise terminal use stop 21. But I don't see a 21 stop on their line. miss print? Which stop is closes to take to the Best Western Mercur?

We leave on Thursday, so no time for snail mail. I see that the citysightseeing. does have all lines running May 1 so that might be the way to go. Might go the canal, bus, bus ticket which one sight offered.

Was leaning toward the Copenhagen Card, but if I buy online and have the e-voucher, where would I exchange it for the card at the cruise port? I think there is nowhere close. Then I could do a HOHO bus. Question on the hoho bus. Is it just one company or is there multiple. Saw a site to purchase the citysights bus or the open top buses with a boat pass. Also how much money should we exchange for 2 days worth of food for a average person (lunch and dinner). Or a better questions is how expensive is a quick lunch or dinner?

coming in on the Emerald Princess May 12, (not sure which port), need to get from there to Best Western Mercur. Staying two days, wanting to see some sights, get feel of city and need transportation to airport on May 14. What is the best way. Copenhagen card?, hop on off bus or taxi? Wanting to see some things but not be overwhelmed.

Need pre and post hotel. pre-hotel need shuttle from FLL airport to hotel and then be able to get around and enjoy the water taxi and beach. Post-hotel would like shuttle from cruise port to hotel (or airport then hotel) and be able to get to Sawgrass mall. breakfast available would be great.

I would like to know who was the Captain of the Fairwind in July of 1985? I'm hoping the answer is Giuseppe Romano.
