Luminosa is a pretty ship but there is no Guys, Blue Iguana, etc…. We were unimpressed by the Luminosa.
We were unimpressed with Luminosa as well.
I think this ship’s putt -putt is nonexistent. The shops had nice things I’ve not seen elsewhere though.

Has anyone played PB on the Vista?
I realize it has a basketball court. But what I want to know is if anyone has used it to play PB.
I don’t need a net, I just want to hit the ball back-and-forth for 10 to 15 minutes.
We were on the wonder of the seas, and the line was ridiculous.
We were also on the Luminosa, and the basketball court was constantly filled, no matter what time we got there.

On a few cruises since the restart the steward told me when he would be available to clean the room. We weren't really given a choice.
😳. That’s insane. In 32 cruises I’ve always been given a choice. In fact, I ask evening turndown and for ice twice a day. Never have I ever been told no.
I ask for extra pillow, an extra blanket also.
I tell them no towel animals.
I hand them a list with my cabin number and my preferences.
I’m going to start tipping extra in advance in addition to my normal after. 🤷♀️. They seem surprised when I seek them out afterwards to tip them extra.

This is why I haven’t returned to the ABC’s.
We went once in 2015 or so and 2 of the 3 excursions we booked did a switch-er-oo. 😡
And these were through Carnival, which we rarely do.
This ticked me off so bad that I’ve never returned to these ports.

Wow! Thanks for the posts. I’m on Vista twice next year. I’ve never been so I was really looking forward to it.
Looks like I’m going to need to lower my expectations. 😳

Log in.
Click on the 3 lines in top right corner.
When the box opens, click on Booking and Order Details.
It should say paid in full.
You can click on View invoice details then.

The line seems to wrap around the entire lobby when the gratuities hit the folio
Not sure that’s a fair statement.
Not everyone is removing tips. Some people are just having questions in general. I go there sometimes to have my friend’s tips moved to my account, refund on wi-fi, questions about debarkation and a myriad of other things.
I’m almost diamond and have never removed tips. Although, if I felt the need to do so, I’d do it.

I feel like I should know the answer to this by now but can you use the FREE ship WiFi that you use for the Carnival Hub to use your iPhone’s texting (iMessage) while at sea?? Can you also use it to FaceTime while at see for FREE??
Im very cautious with my cell at sea so not to get any unexpected charges, but would love to know what is possible for free.
thanks
Sometimes.
My husband and I were on the Mardi Gras. I had paid for premium Wi-Fi. He did NOT.
I was in the bed watching TV, and he was out on the balcony. We were not near a port.
I texted him, and he answered. 🤷♀️

the cardboard horse races
I really wish they’d bring this back.
When I was in my early 20’s I had no money nor did I understand how this worked.
I’m ready to play now!!

We were there earlier this year and umbrellas seemed quite large. You did have to anchor them your selves. Didn't like that there wasn't much shade or signage in this port. No maps of where to go when go off the ship so just wandered. Food not the best.
Where do you go to get these umbrellas?
i’m assuming you get some kind of ticket and it indicates where on that?

@Miss Picante Can you please tell us what the cost of the umbrella rental is currently?
Thanks,
~Nancy
$34.99

The umbrellas are not the clamshells.
The rental umbrellas are a new thing. Maybe because guests were complaining that there’s little shade near the big ship/bar thing.
I’m grateful to have an umbrella at least, as long as it’s large enough to be considered shade.
Hopefully someone has rented these and will respond.

Since the cabanas are ridiculously priced now, I went ahead and rented an umbrella for $35. The umbrella supposedly is good for two people.
I am wondering if it does in fact work for two people.
Has anybody had experience with this? Unless this umbrella is pretty large, I don’t see it.
thanks.

The internet is per-simultaneous device. If you buy 1 internet device, you just get bumped off when he logs in on his phone. Then you can bump him off when you're ready to resume.
Thanks, but we have been trying to do this asking us if we want to purchase another device. How do you specifically do this?

I purchased one package.
Can my husband take control of my Internet? If so, how?

Where are the luggage tags and boarding pass?

I sometimes cruise at the beginning of Dec. It seems that’s when hotels start decorating and that’s the LAST thing I want to think about when I’m cruising. Ugh. I just want to relax and not think about shopping, wrapping, cooking, cleaning, etc.

I’m not thrilled to get my picture taken either. In fact, I hate it. However, I’ve heard that the photographers get credit or have a quota they’re trying to make. Maybe that’s not true?
At any rate, despite me looking like a bag lady, I still stop for a photo occasionally. They almost look relieved. I tell them that it will increase my chances for buying if it’s in black and white and they sometimes accommodate.

What nobody is mentioning is that this is not very “green” and half of it likely ends up in landfills.
Either a tshirt or free drink would make more sense.

Ugh. We’re on the Vista twice next year during hot months. I hope the AC is fixed by then.

the B&C to get up and around. But no. That is no longer available.
Hmmm. If I were referred to as this, then I would no longer be available.
I am sure you meant your sex kitten wife, no?

Oh no, we have resort passes to Lighthouse Pointe Resort. I hope it is better by the time we arrive in October. I loved that area when i visited years ago and I hope they are able to recover.
Has anyone recently done this Resort For a Day ?I’m curious if it’s worthwhile. Also curious about the taxi service or shuttle service.

Just call Carnival and have them remove the 2nd person and get you taxes and port fees back on the second person.
Agreed.
I’ve sailed solo a few times on a casino deal (free). I paid the $200 and received $200 OBC.
I paid taxes for myself only. I paid these when booking it. Nothing was requested from me about taxes for a 2nd person.
One thing about going solo, I feel that always tipping extra is appropriate as the room attendant is only getting one person’s tips, so I try to make up for that.

Yay for Carnival!!
As a mom to a vegan, it’s great to see.
We eat vegan sometimes and what I don’t think people realize is that salads and plates of straight veggies are not really considered a meal for vegans. I’ve had this problem at restaurants when asking if they have vegan meals.
It’s not easy to come up with decent vegan meals and I applaud Carnival for making the effort.

What NEW small changes would you like to see?
in Carnival Cruise Lines
Posted
Yes. And while they’re at it, an ice dispenser would be great, albeit a bit noisy. Or maybe put them in the self laundry rooms.
