The Cruise Duo Posted March 9, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Heard a rumor recently on the Carnival Glory Bloggers Cruise last week that Carnival is looking into charging for pizza delivery to your stateroom at $5.00 per whole pizza. Would you be prepared to pay this charge? Thoughts? Comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoofingPrincess Posted March 9, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hmm. Interesting question. What have I been doing right before that? Am I dressed? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankerbabe Posted March 9, 2011 #3 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I just wouldn't pay it - I'd get off my lazy butt and walk up to the pizza place to get my own pizza. Maybe a bunch of kids were ordering pizza to their cabins, just because they can? I can definitely see that being a problem especially with kids that are in separate cabins from their parents.

norcal2 Posted March 9, 2011 #4 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I wouldn't since we can do a Pizza crawl and bring it to the cabin but it is an interesting concept. The difference being ordering a whole pizza versus grabbing a piece. All they can do is try and see if it sells for some who want a whole one. I suspect it may fail before getting started but ya never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrpayroll Posted March 9, 2011 #5 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I'm sure some people would pay for it. Personally i will walk to the pizza station and pick mine up. I will also pick yours up for $3.00 delivery if you are on same deck as i am...:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare richstowe Posted March 9, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Did you hear that ? It was the sound of a troll posting to John Heald that CC is saying pizza is now $5 ( $10 with anchovies) and they are never going to cruise Carnival again. Heald will then say he loves CC but we are all idiots and no ,there will be no delivery charges. or are I being a tad cynical? :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady_Jag Posted March 9, 2011 #8 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hmmm... I didn't even know you could have pizza delivered to your cabin. :o Shhh! Don't tell hubby! That will be one less excuse I can use to leave the cabin while he gets our little one ready for bed! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can order pizza slices through room service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arpie05 Posted March 9, 2011 #12 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I think it's a great option. I don't think you can get pizza delivered currently to your room - if you did, it's probably what they serve off the kids menu and not what is served on the Lido. RCL is now offering this option.

Mysschevous Posted March 9, 2011 #13 Share Posted March 9, 2011 They charged for pizza delivery on the NCL Epic. Honestly, $5 isn't too bad for a whole pizza, but I would probably walk to the lido and get my own. My kids would LOVE to have it delivered, and I would probably let them at least once, as I did on the Epic. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you be prepared to pay this charge? Thoughts? Comments? $5? when i can get a whole meal served to me for less than $2? ripoff, and hope it's a false rumor (besides no knowing they even offered this option).

Cruise, J.D. Posted March 9, 2011 #17 Share Posted March 9, 2011 This would be a new option AFAIK. I don't have a problem with the charge, but I don't think I would ever pay for this service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfadj Posted March 9, 2011 #20 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I am from NY and know good pizza. For good pizza would pay an extra 5 bucks in general. For the stuff that the cruise lines pass off as pizza would not pay at all. However garlic bread and caesar salad is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdaddyvoges Posted March 9, 2011 #21 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Didn't know you could do this. After a night of drinking and donating to the casino, I might see ordering a pizza and sitting on the balcony with family to cap off the night!!! ($5 I would gladly pay) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delnatha Posted March 9, 2011 #22 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Same. No problem with it but I wouldn't pay it. I am betting cruiselines are a lot like many hotels: If you call room service and tell them you have a $20 bill waiting for them they will make you just about anything you ask for. Anybody ever try this? I used to work as a cook at a hotel and people would do this and I would make them whatever they wanted and split the cash with whoever made the delivery.

BeccaBecca1713 Posted March 9, 2011 #23 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I think there needs to be some clarification as it appears some posters think that Carnival already delivers pizzas to cabins: Carnival DOES NOT deliver pizza to cabins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
