Monarch523 Posted May 7, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 7, 2014 So wait a minute.....are you trying to tell me that I can pile a plate of food, wrap it up from the Lido deck and take it down to my room???? Won't people look at me crazy taking food to my room on the elevator? Do people do that all the time?? OBVIOUSLY.....I'm a newbie:o.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tncap Posted May 7, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I'm not sure about "wrapping it up" but yes you can carry it down and no one will look twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody will even notice you. LOL We do it all the time. I've even asked for my dessert to go at the MDR and taken it back to my room. It's your cruise...do what you wanna do!

champagne123 Posted May 7, 2014 #5 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Not at all. Hubby was sick for a few days. Went and made him a plate 3X a day. Take a SECOND plate upside down and put it on top. The amount of people that sneeze and cough..when you are in an elevator......ugh. Cover your food.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotch Mist Posted May 7, 2014 #7 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I usually do this at breakfast time as I prefer to eat it in my cabin. People usually have a good look to see what I have on my plate when I get in the elevator but no one has ever said anything to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you are a new addition to the usual Carnival protocol "must pile it as high as possible", may one suggest you do utilise a wheelbarrow, as this will save you making more than one trip.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare rrraydon Posted May 7, 2014 #10 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Nope. No one will bat an eye. Used to be there were trays up on the Lido but Carnival did away with them. I keep one of the trays from room service so I can use it when I bring breakfast to the cabin from the Lido. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the explanation, as before this I thought trays were withdrawn because guests actually thought the trays were just larger plates.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USNUZULOOSE Posted May 7, 2014 #13 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Next cruise I take, I will go to Lido deck and bring back lunch and enjoy it in my room and take a nap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially at breakfast when I'm trying to carry for 2 for breakfast in bed. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PORT ROYAL Posted May 7, 2014 #15 Share Posted May 7, 2014 They weren't ? Like it. Could any CC member confirm the rumour that in 2015 Carnival may be addding a shovel to the cutlery selection.:D After all Carnival could dispense with knives for use in conjunction with a fork.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disconnections Posted May 7, 2014 #16 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Thanks for the explanation, as before this I thought trays were withdrawn because guests actually thought the trays were just larger plates.;) The trays were removed because research shows that on average, guests take less food from a buffet if they only have a plate. This then leads to less food waste, which is already 1/3 times higher when guests are on vacation versus at home. However, if you ask the brand ambassador, he will say they were removed to eliminate the cafeteria look at the buffet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep one of the trays from room service so I can use it when I bring breakfast to the cabin from the Lido. I sailed the Pride last week, and I used the trays provided take food back to my cabin. We just used a napkin to cover the food on the elevator. Some even ordered extra food in the MDR to take back to their cabin. No problem at all. The food is all paid for, so Carnival could care less where on the ship it is eaten. Sent from my SGH-I317 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
