Haven’t cruised with Carnival in quite a while so I was surprised when I called special needs to request an extension cord & distilled water, that not only do they charge $3.25 for the water, they added an
18% gratuity charge.

Check on board ship for any restrictions on taking the scooter on the tender.
It may not be possible depending on conditions the day you port at Princess Key.
Thanks! I’ll check. It does collapse like a suitcase so he won’t be on it on the tender, so hopeful.

Husband uses a collapsible mobility scooter when we need to do a lot of walking. We don’t want to take the tender there then find out he won’t be able to use it. Are there paved areas or is it just sandy areas?

Agree entirely very similar to us tremendous cruise and the benefits of no flying no weight restrictions on your luggage and as you say five minutes from car park to ship.
We had an 11.30am embarkation time but ended up getting parked at 10.30am got checked in and were on board within 20 minutes.
Our only negative ====== wait for it.
For some reason we got stopped ( never have done before if cruising or flying ) by the customs people and had a full search of all our suitcases and hand baggage which delayed us about 15 to 20 minutes.
They were all great ports of call but Cadiz was also our favourite also.
we were also on this cruise. Agree with everyone AND how cold the ship was. We were particularly impressed with the organization for express walk off. Left our room and in our car in less than 10 minutes. Great cruise!

We are in a junior suite but the shower is in the bathtub. Can we request a shower chair? If so, whom do we ask? Thanks everyone.

FYI:Last year we were on deck 6 quite near the theater. Lots of loud music during “ we will rock you” shows & rehearsals.
-
Thanks everyone for your advice. 😜

Last year on Anthem, I remember ordering coke ( in a 12 pack) delivered to our room. I believe it was on the room service card.
Anyone know if this is still available?
thanks!
-
Only balconies on our preferred floor are connecting. Would we lose space or couch and where is the connecting door? How about noise? Thanks in advance for your input.

Thanks everyone for your input.

I am also wondering with the “ free” drink package. Do they give you cans of soda or is it fountain soda same as soda package?!
im trying to decide if “ free at sea” packages are really worth it for us.
thanks everyone for your help. As I said, it’s been several years since we’ve sailed NCL and unfamiliar with their policies. -
Thanks! I just need to “ upgrade” to unlimited. 300 minutes just won’t work.
-
Planning to book the Sun for December.
Have not sailed NCL for several years.
I will need unlimited wi-fi ( 12 day cruise)Best option? Any other advice for dining etc greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Have been to San Juan numerous times but have not visited this area.
Would my husband be able to use his mobility scooter here or is it all sand?

We have always purchased insurance through Allianz. But as they say, you never really know how good your insurance is until you need it. Well, my husband had surgery mid November and was unable to travel for our Dec 1st cruise. I contacted Allianz & uploaded documents they requested and in less than 2 weeks I had the refund check. Needless to say, they are my choice for travel insurance.

Not sure if I can promote this but I love cruise critic because I learned of this website on here. It’s a website to locate a hotel that offers use of a hotel with room for a “ day”. We just got off a cruise but had a late flight. We booked a hotel, had a lovely room and use of all the facilities for the day and a place to keep our luggage while we enjoyed the area. It was great for my husband who tires easily that he could rest also. Most cities have hotels that offer this. Check it out if you need this service.

Hope it’s available on Allure next month. Seems like it’s a nice change…..

Booked through dayuse.com
Could I have booked directly?we’ve stayed there several times before a cruise and agree, very nice hotel.
-
Does anyone have experience using this website to book a “ day use” hotel while waiting for an evening flight after a cruise?
I booked one for the Riverside on Los Olas Blvd in Fort Lauderdale. ( stayed there in the past and it’s a great hotel) but just seems odd that I got a confirmation but didn’t give any info except my name & email address 🤷♀️

First time on celebrity. Leaving in 2 weeks. Currently we are in an OV balcony with all perks included. We have bids in on 2 different categories. If we are successful, do our perks go with us or will we be required to pay for gratuities, drink package and wi-fi?
-
Sure wish they’d bring back this service.
We loved using this when we had a late flight. Anyone hear any rumors about bringing it back? -
Thanks everyone for your great advice. Really looking forward to trying celebrity. 🙂

Totally agree. Just surprised they charge. We usually cruise royal & have never been charged for water.
