journeymore Posted July 18, 2016 #1776 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I'd like to try one of the specialty restaurants too. I'm in cabin 7286 Great. I'm open for either one of the restaurants so you choose. Maybe we can meetup at sail a way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skipperanne Posted July 19, 2016 #1778 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Hi everyone, I am taking my second solo cruise in October on Carnival Paradise out of Tampa (October 24). It is the first time I will be sailing Carnival. I have done nine NCL cruises, but only once was I solo. I think the change of cruise line scares me more than being solo at this point. So many things I took for granted will be different. . . but i suppose it is mainly going to dinner when i feel like it. Any advice on taking a short Carnival Cruise would be appreciated. Thanks.

skipperanne Posted July 19, 2016 #1782 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Carnival the Fun Ships , I think I like Carnival better than NCL Please tell me what the advantages of Carnival are? I've been told that Celebrity would be better, but not sure that is in my budget. Please, let me know what to look forward too. Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTVCRUISER Posted July 20, 2016 #1783 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Carnival is a younger crowd , they do a lot of fun stuff by the pool , Celebrity and RCCL are my favorite cruise lines, I am a Diamond member so they take good care of you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv my furbaby Posted July 20, 2016 #1784 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Sailing solo on RCCL Adventure of the Seas November 26, 2016 - first mini-suite and first aft cabin! Sailing solo on the Regal Princess January 15 2017 (I think that is the date). Haven't sailed with Princess since the 90's!! Any one else on these cruises??

AdoraBelle Posted July 20, 2016 #1785 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Trying out the Escape for my third solo cruise and my fifth cruise overall. I'll be on the Oct 15th sailing, studio cabin. On debarkation day, I'll be shuttling up to FLL to meet my significant other for a shorter trip on the Royal Princess (he can't handle 7-day cruises-- yet). So it's a quasi back to back for me.

42CruiseCrazy Posted July 21, 2016 Author #1786 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Please tell me what the advantages of Carnival are? I've been told that Celebrity would be better, but not sure that is in my budget. Please, let me know what to look forward too. Anne Carnival & NCL have a younger crowd and more families. Both cruise lines are loads of fun. NCL is more solo friendly with the Studio cabins on many ships. Celebrity is an older crowd fancier food and surroundings & more quiet and relaxing. My favourite is Norwegian. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been told that Celebrity would be better, but not sure that is in my budget. Please, let me know what to look forward too. Anne Anne, I don't know your age but I'm over 55 and I'm a Princess cruiser, that said, every once in a while and because of the venue or the port that the ship is leaving from, I book a Carnival Cruise and ALWAYS have a great time. It's a lively crowd, and Carnival kicks-up the entertainment onboard to keep that crowd interested. The cabins are large and lovely. The crew is ALWAYS ready to help and those towel animals are so adorable and a treat to come back to at the end of a full day. You can join in as much fun [hairy chest, legs, back] contests as you want and the many parades and fun stuff as you like or just sit back and people-watch. Your pocket-book will thank you and your spirits will truly be lifted, I promise! Edited July 21, 2016 by wizard-of-roz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benanjerry Posted July 21, 2016 #1788 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hi, I am counting down the days until this cruise, my third solo with Princess. Love cruising with them! This is my reward to me for completing a Master's last year at age 59 - a work requirement, sigh. Looking forward to lots of reading, relaxing, photography and being able to "just be" for a while. I'd be happy if the ship sailed in a circle because I adore sea days, but this cruise has lots of great islands to visit so will surely keep busy. And the folks who cruise on Princess are among the most friendly out there. Hope to meet some of you! Kay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseelady Posted July 22, 2016 #1789 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Hey all, I will be on NCL Gem, December 11-19. Single and solo cruiser from NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calidreaming Posted July 23, 2016 #1790 Share Posted July 23, 2016 I sailed that route last April and I found if you do anytime dining and request sharing you always meet new people. Met nice people during trivia games when you team up just ask to join someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
