We had a 4pm flight out of FLL last year, so we did a Best of Miami tour excursion through Carnival. We got to do some site seeing and explore a little bit. They hold on to your luggage on the tour bus which was a plus. They drop you off at the airport in the end. Worked out very well and enjoyed the tour.

I’ve found some things I really like but have never ordered from them and don’t know anyone who has.

We did it last year-----SAS transportation was excellent for us. I hate recommending anything, but I remember they were right on time and very knowledgeable about scenic items and knowing how to avoid delays.

Depends... how many people, how much luggage, price, speed, personal service?

Shuttle, taxi, Uber, rental car?

We will be on Elation Oct 27-Nov 1. My sons birthday is on the 31st. I’m looking forward to this cruise

is there a library on Elation? And are there games to play with the kids?

We sailed on Fascination in 2015 and if I remember correctly that ship had one

I don't want to use my "real" cellphone on the ship, because of the risk of "de-airplane mode", and because it's expensive.

I just ordered this $10 phone to use aboard the ship:

You’re able to use the phone for the app? Can it also be used for the $5 texting?

we have cruised the Fascination twice and in Oct the Elation.

What are the main differences in the two ships?

I know Elation has had the upgrades. The Fascination didn’t at the time

We are cruising with our son and his family who have never cruised. We have a 7 and 9 year old grandchildren with us.

Here’s some more information on AOTS. They do more than priority boarding. They contact the cruise line to arrange special seating in dining room. Your family will be the only ones at your table. They have always put us in a quiet corner. The servers are aware of my sons needs including his food allergies.

They work with the kids programs to make the workers aware of his needs.

I did answer with more detail on other board but the short of it is. I won’t cruise without them

We are booked for our 4th AOTS cruise. I will not cruise without them. They are wonderful at communicating with the cruise line about our sons special needs. I can’t say enough good about them

We are in Elation in October. Can I assume we will need to do this?

Hi There!

 

We will be cruising on the Paradise in September with our son (5) and our daughter (3). Our son has some moderate sensory issues, and I'm just now starting to think of the muster drill.

 

Can anyone tell me what it's like, especially for a child very sensitive to loud sounds/sirens? Is there anything you could recommend that we can do to prepare him for the drill? I thought about maybe getting him some noise-canceling headphones to wear, but I realize that if it were a real scenario, those would not be so readily available and he should be familiar with the sound.

 

Just not really sure what to expect from him or the drill. Any advice would be very welcomed. Thank you!

Contact “Autism On The Seas”. We have cruised with them 5 times. They are wonderful at arranging everything with the cruise lines. I won’t cruise with my son without them.

We’re taking the grandchildren on a cruise in October. I’m wondering if they can spray silly string as we sail away.
