Mix and Mingle

[csteck]

Does Carnival have a mix and migle party with the cruise critic or is it only a Royal Caribbean thing?

It's a RCCL thing and is contracted as such. If you're part of an official CC Group Cruise on Carnival, you will have a nice party, but it's not a Meet & Mingle. The best thing to do is find your cruise on the roll call boards and designate a spot to meet at a specific time to hook up with the CC members. We did that on our recent Legend sailing. We also all agreed to wear leis to identify each other.

It's only Royal Caribbean and Celebrity.....Carnival does not do a ship wide CC M&M......It's been discussed here several times and I can't tell you why Carnival doesn't do this other than the fact.....They can't legally.......They do however put on a great happy hour with free drinks for most of their groups....All of us sailing on Carnival put our own M&Ms on and frankly, I've been to a Royal Caribbean's M&Ms, and I think the ones our members do on their own is better.......Hope this helps.........If I can help you more, fell free to email me at HostRandy@cruisecritic.com
