my2monkees Posted January 20, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 20, 2014 if anyone has any questions ask away and I will try to answer. I did bring home the Fun Times with me. For the couple that asked questions (on the everything Fantasy thread) I will post those answers over there later tonight or tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HectorAchilleus Posted January 21, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Does the Carnival Fantasy have the new thin-crust pizza yet. We are going on a cruise this Saturday and really like it better than the old stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare unc1acc Posted January 21, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm leaving on the Fantasy for the first time on Feb. 6th. I'm looking forward to hearing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare unc1acc Posted January 21, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 21, 2014 One question I do have is what time did you arrive to port and how long was check-in? I've heard the port of Charleston can be a little of a bear. Looking to get on as early as they'd let me after priority guests that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCTribeFan Posted January 21, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 21, 2014 unc1 - have a look at the All Things Fantasy thread. Lots of prior discussions about boarding. There's also lots of info on the East Coast Departures board for Charleston departures. I don't want to hijack the OPs thread, but I've done it a few times. Yes, it seems confusing at first, but if you find and read the info/explanations, once you get there and see how it's done, it isn't so bad. OP - did you enjoy your cruise? I'm waiting for my PVP to call me so I can book my post-tax-season Fantasy cruise. It'll be my 7th on her. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my2monkees Posted January 21, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Richie & Mary - No didn't really hear anything. Now my friend I was travelling with said that she overhead some older folk and they said it was a boy (well these ladies were well into their 70 maybe even 80) so boy could have been someone 50 to them. I feel for the family though. Unc1acc - I have never had trouble with the embarkation (this was my 5th time). The 1st 4 we stayed in a hotel in Mt. Pleasant and the cab dropped us right where you get on the shuttle. This last time my dh drove my friend and I to the port and dropped us off. We were in line around 10:45, inside the building around 11:10, and they let us board at 11:30. By 11:45 I had my bowl of stir fry from the Mongolian Grill. Now the people driving themselves were waiting in line to enter the parking building when we past so not sure how long it took them. To enter at this port is different then most since you have to take the shuttle (it's just a temporary port) but it is nice as only about 40 or so people enter the building at a time which makes it easy to check in.

Gamecock_Cruiser Posted January 21, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 21, 2014 UNC1ACC, when we traveled out of Charleston, we arrived at the terminal about 10:45. We had to wait until 11:30 until they opened the parking lots. They have limited parking space and have to wait until the previous guests leave before they allow arriving guest to park. From security to on board took 20 maybe 30 minutes MAX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gingerb93 Posted January 25, 2014 #10 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Hi! We are on the February 6 sailing, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there are hair dryers in the cabins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc_cruizer Posted January 26, 2014 #11 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Hi! We are on the February 6 sailing, and I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there are hair dryers in the cabins?

grima625 Posted January 26, 2014 #12 Share Posted January 26, 2014 We will be on her on Feb 11 for the second time. Looking forward to it. I hope you had a good cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my2monkees Posted January 26, 2014 Author #13 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Andy - Had a great cruise. It was pretty cool (only shorts 1 day and sweat jacket all days) but compared to other places not bad. The sailing was very calm until the final sea day and it started to really rock and roll. Quite a few sick people on board. up until that time it was like sailing on glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grima625 Posted January 28, 2014 #14 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Could you tell me if there is one or two formal nights? I was thinking there were two, but can't remember about the 5 night cruise. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought about getting the FTTF but if it's that short, no need. My countdown is on....really feels weird now looking outside my house with 2+ inches of snow coming down and more coming.
