@mitsugirly Kim, the reason that they took the Walk up bar out of the casino, was the smokers would clog the area, not drink, or gamble becuse they didn't want to go up to the outdoor areas. They had that bar around the tornato thing and the smoke would float up to the promanae deck. They also have a problem now with people going to the casino and sitting at a maching and smoking and not gambling. From a smokers perspective, I don't like that there is now no inside smoking area. from a former smokers persepective, I still don't like it, it hasn't helped much in the casino, but at least theey are making non smoking casinos away from the smoking ones. just thought you would want to know why the bar is not there. enjoying the review and thank you for the hard work you put into there.

The one perk I wish they would change is the free drink at seaday Brunch, it clogs up Brunch with DImond/Plat all wanting there free drink. It would be alivated by making that free drink be good at any bar/any time.

I have been following you since your daughter was jumping off a 2 story lege into the ocean. She is making me feel so old. How old is she now?

I hope that you and patty are having fun on the Vista. Enjoy your turnaround day tomarrow, and have another Great Cruise. Looking forward to the epic review.

When I was on the Vista last year before the drydock I was able to get chips, they were freeplay chips, but I used them untill I lost them, and walked out of the casino 150 richer.

I have absolutly no compassion for carnival anymore over the debt they incurred durring the shutdown for one reason alone...they have ordered 2 1billion dollar+ ships. Get rid of that debt first then build new ships.

If I had to have an interior on Horizon, I would book a cabin on deck 1, if I am able bodied, the reason is when you get back from port it is easy to go up one flight of stairs to get back to your room. Also you can look into a 4J, they are at the front of the ship, and have windows at interor prices. Yes you are looking at the secret deck, but it's almost like having your own baclony.

Thank you, much apprecated.

@Saint Greg I am on a B2B on the Valor in a year and am looking for either a Park and cruise pacage, or get a hotel an hour or so from NOLA and park at Fulton. The only park and cruise is a Confort Inn accross the river for 269, but the last time I was there I found bugs on my pillow. What is your thoughts.

Aida and P&O have 2 excel class ships running in europe

My guess is that NOLA will get Mardi Gras or Vista, while Valor or Glory goes to Mobile full time, Spirit goes to San Juan part time. Magic moves to Ft Lauderdale, and New ship takes it's place. \As for names I'm guessing Holiday, and Festaval.

Prayers to all the people on the bridge when it went down. What to do about those that are on the Pride and other cruise ships that go in and out of Baltimore? My guess is debark in either Philidelpha or Norfolk.

I book the cheepest hotel I can find as close to the termanal as I can get when I am not going out of Tampa or Port Canavral. WHen I am in those ports I usaly fly and my dad picks us up. and say with him

I would change things a little, Leave Blue Red and Gold as is, then with Plats, Get rid of priority Boarding, but keep early check in, Get rid of the Past guest party Get rid of the 1 drink per person Durring Sea day brunch, and give 2 or 3 vouchers for a free drink of there choice per day. Add Plat + and add 1 free specilty dining on 5+ day saiings, or Steakhouse Selection on ships w/o specialty dining also 4 free drinks per day. Dimond would stay the same except 2 specilty dining and 5 free drinks, and Dimond + would be 3 specialty dining, and 6 free drinks per day, and special Lunch with the captian. JMHO on what should be done.

The scooter must meet the with guidelines, along with having to be able to be collapsable The scooter can not stay outside the cabin empty. Anything over 21 inches must have a accesable cabin. As for your question, the hallways with rooms are kind of small but a scooter can get though them, and there are at least 1 accesable Bathroom on each public level, aka 5, 6, 7 Lido at least. Good luck

Yes we have an ocean view on riviara booked on both legs. We do have a cruise booked for Dec on Elation.

Just finished booking the first leg. Our tentive plans are leaving here on Saturday sometime, and staying at a park and cruise hotel. Nothing planed in Progresso, In 1st cosmel we know of a little All inlusive that is not far up from the Royal Peir for $40 and they only take 50 a day. It's small but if you and Patty are intrested,I can give you the location. We have no plans for Costa Maya yet, but Cozmel 2 We are planing Paradise Beach, and Steak House for our actual 25th Anniversery. See you on board.

Just a question, is fulton Garage set up for a B2B?

Just wondering if there is a Hotel package in Jacksonvile that will shuttle you to the cruise port then back. Thanks

Someone will push you up the gangway.

I just had another thought, Maybe Excel 4 can take the place of Magic, Vista or Horizon and they can go to NOLA, and Liberty or Valor can go to San Juan, and split that seasonly with Alaska and make Spirit permanant in Mobile.

I belive Jamman has some in his Vacation Photo Album in his signature

My thought would be Excel 4 to Port Canavral, Mardi Gras to NOLA, Valor or Liberty to Norfolk, Sunshine to Mobile, and Spirit over to Tampa. Panorama, and Frenze are staying on the West coast becuse if they broght them East they would have to go down and around South America.

It is a very fun sailaway, and best viewed from the secret deck, Maybe if you have a aft Balcony it would be just as good. BTW WE have booked for April 5 2025 cruise as of right now, we are going to book the one before in a little while.

I know that I can carry on 1 12 pack PP, but on a B2B can I carry on 2 per person?
