We are due back in Baltimore tomorrow morning...we have got our luggage tags this morning for disembarkation...they are blue with the #3. We only have 1 large piece of luggage...and the paper we got says since we are in a suite we have priority debarkation and we can choose between self assist or check in luggage...the self assist says to report to designated area by 9am and if we choose the check in luggage it's to same area by 10am. Does this mean that if we choose the self assist we will disembark before the check in luggage? I would like to disembark ASAP... thanks for any advice.

I'm still nervous as all hell...I hate to think of embarking in ugly pouring down rain weather....ugh.

I'm extremely concerned about sailing out of Baltimore Sunday to Bermuda because of Hurricane Hermine. Anyone have any suggestions or words of comfort?

Thank you so much for your speedy reply and candid pics. The room looks very comfy and spacious! That's just what Im looking for as I tend to get claustrophobic on staterooms especially the tiny bathrooms!

We are sailing for our first time with Carnival CL on a 7 day cruise to Bermuda out of Baltimore. My wonderful husband decided to reserve a ocean suite with a panoramic deck, room 8271 because its our 15th wedding anniversary. The room looks spacious and gorgeous. What can anyone tell me about the panoramic suites? Are they as nice as they seem? Has anyone ever stayed in these particular rooms? Does anyone have any candid pictures to share? Thanks for any and all input...:):):D:D

Thanks everyone. I was thinking the same thing...most people are not going to pull their kids out of school within the first week or two it starts.

Cruising on Pride out of Baltimore September 4th. I know its the day before the Labor day holiday but what are the odds that this cruise will be bombarded with a ton of kids? (Being that pretty much most schools are back in session or getting ready to start by then...) Anybody have experience cruising on September sailings and notice the amount of kids versus holiday breaks or peak summertime cruises?

So I'm assuming if I check back periodically online in the months and weeks leading up to my cruise that I MAY luck out and be able to purchase this perk???

Thank u all so much for the speedy responses! Great info and ideas...maybe I will bring some crystal light packets and buy some $2.99 waters to be delivered to my room once on board.

Cruising out of Baltimore on September 4th for 7 day trip to Bermuda. New to cruising. We have never cruised with Carnival...Our first time cruising was in 2001 on Disney Magic and the last time we cruised was 2006 also on Disney Magic. As you can see I am new to the cruising game...My husband and I do not drink alcohol and I try not to drink soda either. I have read on other threads that tea, lemonade and water is free? Is this true or should I buy at least one bottomless bubbles package or are these teas, lemonades and water readily accessible 24/7? Also what can we bring aboard to keep in our cabins to drink? I have read one 6 pack of water or soda per stateroom?

I have a 7 day Bermuda cruise booked out of Baltimore for September 4th...Faster to the Fun is already sold out! I am a first time cruiser with Carnival...is there any way to still be able to purchase this later? Any tips or helpful hints are greatly appreciated!

I am sailing for the first time on Grandeur of the Seas out of Baltimore to Bermuda in September...only ever sailed Disney twice before...was wondering if I can get any tips concerning little known tidbits about this ship...our cabin is #8086. Thanks for any info!:)
