michelerdh72 Posted February 18, 2013 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I am planning on booking this summer for the Eastern Caribbean on the Dream. It will be myself, my DH, my DD12, myDD16 and her friend16. We plan on letting the two older girls have a room to themself and my youngest DD will be in the room with us. My husband is interested in the cheers program however I am not (I might drink one fruity drink a day if any). I was wondering if I could book myself in one room and my husband in the other and once we are on board we could get an extra key card for both rooms and change back to our original room arrangement. I realize that myself and one of the girls would have to keep up with two keys (one our actual room key and the other for our sign and sail). This way my DH could get the cheers program but I would not have to. Would this be the best way to handle this? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

If you have the deposit-- book soon. Our cruise has only gone up by 87 for a summer sailing since we booked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that if the girls are 16 and up that they could be in their own room. I guess I need to check into that before I book. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks the age is 21 if the girls were your children you will be able to book them into their own cabin but since you are traveling with a minor with no parents sailing you will bneed to have someone in that cabin that is over 25. if a person is under 21 they need to be booked with a person who is over 25. PS make sure you have a medical power of attorney for her and a NOTARIZED release letting you take her out of the country Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked my wife in one room with one of them and I booked the 2nd room with the other. Once we got on the ship, we just swapped keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheffie Posted February 18, 2013 #6 Share Posted February 18, 2013 We did something similar on our last Carnival cruise. Once you are on board, go to guest relations and have them change things around. Do you want an extra key for you to have for the girls' room? They might do that for you.

Colorado Kat Posted February 19, 2013 #7 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Book yourself with the older girls. Buy the Cheers package for your husband before you switch rooms. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
