That's a good question. I don't know the answer but wouldn't it fall under mocktail? 

I don’t know.  It’s not specified on the website and there are yes and no answers online.

Bartender on our last cruise during the play-offs put the hockey on one TV in the corner but no sound as there was football on.  He did the same with the Brier.

Just a quick question, so non-alcoholic beer count towards your 15.  I couldn’t find a definitive answer on that.

If they are updating rooms and such and not doing major repairs that require a ship to be out of the water, is a "proper dry dock" necessary? I don't take my truck to a body shop for an oil change.

I love this. There should be a like button ☺🍻

It costs the same to renew a passport whether it's expired or not (as long as you haven't let it lapse for more than 5 years, after which it is only as expensive as it is applying for a first time passport).

Actually that varies from country to country.

We've always had a top sheet and no problems getting extra blankets for me...DH likes the AC on but I find it too cold.

Print out paper. Take paper to the pier. Fold Paper. Ask porter for stapler or tape and attach to luggage. Tip porter

This ☺

I've done dressy flip-flops and didn't have any problems.

What is a "dressy" flip flop? Just curious.

Patches, my post was more of a soapbox rant than anything else....I did qualify it as "relatively physically healthy". I hope you are doing well with your stenosis, no offense intended

No offense taken.

I would change the rule that both people over 21 in the cabin have to purchase cheers. And enforce the chair hog rules.

I so agree. My husband always buys the bottomless bubbles because he drinks pop but not alcohol. It would be nice if I could purchase cheers independently.

Here is one that is more an annoyance and really couldn't be implemented....if you are relatively physically healthy, you can't take an elevator going down for 3 decks or under....going up, it has to be more than 2 decks....STOP BEING LAZY AND USE THE STAIRS FOR SHORT TRIPS!!!!

Well you can't really tell if people are healthy or nor just by looking at them. I have a back injury with severe spinal stenosis. There are times when my left leg goes completely numb and I fall over. It is often sudden and unexpected. I can climb up stairs (because you really can't do much damage that way ), but going down stairs I have to take an elevator just to be safe. My neurosurgeon also told me not to hold hot objects or breakable objects in my left hand.

I probably should have mentioned that in the beginning. We are flying into Orlando on Sept. 16th and driving to Fort Lauderdale as we are sailing on the Conquest on Sept. 17th.

Thanks,

Has anyone stayed in this cabin before? any pictures, pros and cons please?

i just read somewhere that forward cabins are not recommended for first time cruisers due to motion sickness. any suggestions will be very much appreciated

I don't know about that specific room, but aft is where we have found a lot of motion, so now we usually book middle or forward.

We are flying into Orlando and driving to Fort Lauderdale for our upcoming cruises. We booked Days Inn Fort Lauderdale Airport North Cruise Port, Fort Lauderdale on the advice of a friend, but after looking at reviews on a certain travel site, we are now a little worried. If anyone has had experience with this hotel, we'd appreciate the feedback...and if it's as bad as the reviews, does anyone have another suggestion for a reasonably priced hotel in the area ($100 range).

Thanks,

Can you purchase the Cheers package for someone not in your room or associated with your booking?

The Liberty is my favorite ship so far

I just call my PVP/TA and tell him/her the ports I'm most interested in and ask what he/she can find on the same ship and same cabin B2B I the time frame I'm looking to go

Unless I'm wrong, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong as it's been a while since we sailed out of Fort Lauderdale, there's a shuttle service to the car rentals near the port.

I got an email from Carnival in May, 2015 saying due to some cruisers trying to smuggle alcohol on board in water bottles all bottles are banned.

Can you post a copy of that e-mail...just curious because I've never gotten one and have been booked for this fall before the rule change.

Thanks,

Actually it is Saint John NB. The Saint is not abbreviated. I know it seems rather silly to everyone, but we Saint Johner's are rather touchy about having it spelled incorrectly.

I whole heartedly apologize for the abbreviation...I wasn't aware....I know we Newfies are sensitive about the 's being dropped or added when it's not us people are talking about....which is why I asked

I have to ask..was it St. John's, NL or St. John, NB or St. John, USVI... not really relevant just curious

I'd rather just have wine in my wine bottle ☺

Belize is the tender port...about twenty minutes if memory serves.
