  1. I can't speak for the Island, but we did take the Coral partial transit last year. The ship is terrific. We loved it. Great ship, great entertainment, great food. The best of 36 cruises. I believe the Island has been altered to add more cabins. The Coral was scheduled to get the same treatment but that was cancelled due to negative reception of the changes. If you take this cruise be sure to attend the enrichment lectures. They add to the experience.

  2. If you can afford a cruise, you can afford to give someone who really goes out of their way to make your vacation perfect a little extra. I am sure all of the stewards or waiters or kitchen staff greatly appreciate it.

     

    Agree 100% the $ is not that big of a deal to us. I like to leave the impression that Americans are kind and generous people.

  3. As much as I try to think of the good..being on vacation, not in the office, enjoying the ship, I still am a little upset of possibly another sea day. This will be a total of 5 days at sea. We are sailing 10/30.

     

    I understand I should have the mindset of being on vacation and the knowing of booking during hurricane season but I can't lie and say that I'm not disappointed.

     

    Why name all these alternatives and not choose any of them for any sailings. idk..in my opinion they were maybe too generous in the Cruises that had to alternate an entire itinerary and now they need to make up cost by not subbing ports and/or giving obc and just giving an extra sea day and making us spend more money onboard.

     

    My opinion, you don't have to agree.

     

    I'm ready for vacation either way.

     

    I agree, that does suck. I would much rather be in port, any port. Sea days are boring. But I do get a chance to catch up on my eating and sleeping.

  4. First of all, Princess is a cut above Carnival. In all aspects. The first time we tried Princess we decided that there would be no more Carnival cruises. The Coral is a great ship. Food is terrific. Make sure to try the International Cafe. It is open 24 hours. The pizza is the best at sea. The buffet stays open continuously from 6am to 11 pm. The canal cruise is a fantastic cruise. Each port is terrific. Bring light clothing as it will be hot and humid. Make sure to go to all the port/enrichment lectures. They will enhance your experience. We took this cruise same time last year. We are still talking about it. I see you have a balcony, good choice. Any specific questions you have, I will be glad to try to answer.
