DD99 Posted September 5, 2011 #1 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Going on Carnival Magic for European cruise in October and have a few questions: 1.How formal do people get for formal nights? It appears that carnival is not recommending dark suits anymore on the web site as it did in the past. It says a jacket is okay but not saying required. If I don't have to bring a suit I would rather not. Trying to figure out how to fit 2 weeks of clothes and shoes in the luggage. 2.Laundry- not really a fan of doing my own laundry on vacation, how much is it to send the laundry on the ship for carnival to do it. My thought I spent so much on a cruise why not just pay for laundry :) 3.How can I find out where the ship will dock in Barcelona, and also in Venice?

dlbutler5 Posted September 5, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Barcelona is close to Las Ramblas in Venice it's up in the air but you need water taxis no matter where you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formal Nights, well, Some people were dressed up like they were going to the Acadamy Awards, and, other people, well, lets just say the only effore they did was to iron there shirts. So, as long as you have long panths on, with a shirt with sleeves, they will allow you to eat. 2: Laundry, as we are not yet platinum, it is $15 per bag, We used it twice on a 12 day cruise. Now, you will ask, how big is the bag, well, as much as you can fit into it. We packed it, sent it off, and, thay returned 2 full bags, 3: Barcelona, copy/paste this into googlemaps, and it will show you exactly here the Magic docked last week 41.354955,2.176899 Venice - the same - 41.354955,2.176899 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steilkurve Posted September 6, 2011 #6 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Did the 12-night cruise in August. I wore a dark suit and tie but many wore dress pants and shirts only. And others were even more casual. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
