nol4am Posted March 26, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 26, 2017 ;) I have never done a four-day cruise before. So I have two questions. Do they have a formal night? And do they have a Dr. Seuss breakfast? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted March 26, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 26, 2017 On Carnival Liberty, yes to both of your questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakersdozen12 Posted March 26, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Carnival lists what ships do the Dr Seuss breakfast right in their website. Click on this link, then click on "What ships is the on?" https://www.carnival.com/fun-activities/green-eggs-and-ham-breakfast How many elegant nights a cruise has is also listed on their website.

psk2347 Posted March 27, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 27, 2017 4 day cruises are just a tease. By the time you learn the ship you are disembarking. 2 day, 3 day, and 4 day cruises consist of a majority of first time cruisers.

Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted March 27, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I'm sorry if this misses what you are after. Our first ever cruise was four days. I would never do it again because it doesn't allow a cruiser to immerse in "cruise culture" which is both heavenly and sublime... and... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnwinos Posted March 27, 2017 #6 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Yes, but any cruise is better than no cruise and I do not get paid when not at work. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmf24lmf Posted March 27, 2017 #7 Share Posted March 27, 2017 We often combine four day cruises with a few Disney days and it's the perfect trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrounds Posted March 27, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Going on my 5th 4-day cruise next month on the INSPIRATION. I like them as a "sandwich" in between 7-day cruises. Enjoyed the BREEZE about 5 months ago, but for me this one has no air, no transfers, just a quick run to the port and jump on. Always nice to getaway to the sea for a few days, have a beer or two, and enjoy some great food. I'm sure there will be a lot of people just like me doing the cruise for the same reason. Every cruise is a great cruise. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadieN Posted March 27, 2017 #9 Share Posted March 27, 2017 3/4 day cruises are a weekend away. For us, not much different than going to Vegas, the River or the Desert. A Cruise is closer and (usually) a lot cheaper than any of those other options. To answer the question, even the three day cruises can have the Seuss breakfast. Yes, there is a CE night on the short cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyD Posted March 27, 2017 #10 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Looking forward to our first 4-day cruise this summer on the Imagination. We are off to the west coast to visit our son and we were looking about something to do for a few days prior to the visit. This cruise fit the bill perfectly! Can't wait!

pblack Posted March 27, 2017 #11 Share Posted March 27, 2017 We often combine four day cruises with a few Disney days and it's the perfect trip! This is what the hubby and I are thinking about doing in August. :) It's either San Diego and Disneyland, or a 4 day cruise and Disneyland. We'll be celebrating our 5 year anniversary (3 years married). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salem615 Posted March 27, 2017 #12 Share Posted March 27, 2017 We are doing 3 nights at Universal and then a 4 night cruise next month. Will work perfectly for us. I get my Universal fix and then we can relax and enjoy a cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elainmir Posted March 27, 2017 #13 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Now that the port of Mobile is open and 3 heavenly hours from us we have done a few of the 4 or 5 day ones. I like being able to go and save the longer ones for family cruises. I like the short ones. At least I'm able to cruise even if it's not a 7 day one!

sjcruiser Posted March 28, 2017 #14 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Yes, and Yes. We've done a few 3-4 days lately do to saving up time with only using 1-2 days (Thursday and Friday) for the weekend trip, which gives us more time for longer or extra vacations during the year. We do one or two longer cruises (7-8 nights) in the year. Shorter cruises are not a waste of time, if thats what you can do as far as time or budget. Since we're only 45 minutes from the pier, we enjoy the shorter weekend cruises, even if we've been to the Bahamas plenty of times before. With almost everything included, its the most bang for our buck!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjcruiser Posted March 28, 2017 #15 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Couldn't agree more!! We also save the longer cruises for family cruises, or special occasions. This year we have a family and friends group cruise in August for 8 days, and for two other celebrations, we decided to do a 3 day cruise, which we'll enjoy it just as if it was a 7/8 day getaway. Now that the port of Mobile is open and 3 heavenly hours from us we have done a few of the 4 or 5 day ones. I like being able to go and save the longer ones for family cruises. I like the short ones. At least I'm able to cruise even if it's not a 7 day one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nol4am Posted March 28, 2017 Author #17 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Thank you for the reply's just for the record this will be my 26 to cruise with carnival although my first four day I am bringing two new coworkers with me who always wanted to cruise but weren't sure they would like it so this four day will just be a taste to see if they like the style of cruising it will also help me get to diamond so I don't have any complaints any cruise can be a good cruise.

mindymariexxo Posted March 28, 2017 #18 Share Posted March 28, 2017 3/4 day cruises are a weekend away. For us, not much different than going to Vegas, the River or the Desert. A Cruise is closer and (usually) a lot cheaper than any of those other options. To answer the question, even the three day cruises can have the Seuss breakfast. Yes, there is a CE night on the short cruises. That's exactly how I feel about the 3 day Long Beach sailing. From where I live Vegas is a 4 hour drive, Long Beach is an hour. Vegas would cost us a minimum of 2x as much depending on how much drinking/gambling is done. Vegas is just Vegas, but a 3 day cruise is Ensenada and a day on the water. Now, would I fly to Florida for a 3-4 day cruise? Not unless I was doing a B2B or planning to visit something in the state. I wouldn't want to deal with flying 6 hours for 4 days. But I have seriously considered picking up and moving to Florida to get a change of scenery for our weekend cruise getaways [emoji23] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louanne93 Posted March 28, 2017 #19 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Regardless of what anyone says, we LOVE the 3/4 day cruises. So much fun crammed into a weekend! A lot cheaper than Vegas for us! Usually do a 7 day and a 3/4 day every year. Some people take 10 day cruises and some people split them up. We split them up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sc4125 Posted March 28, 2017 #20 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I use to think that it wasn't worth it to take a 3 or 4 day and only wanted to take 7 days or longer. Last fall several family members were going on a 4 day getaway and my sister & I got a casino deal that matched the cruise. We sailed the Paradise out of Tampa - a 30-45 minute drive for us. I had a great time and wouldn't hesitate to book another 4 day - as a matter of fact we have a 5 day booked on the Paradise for June and then a 7 day on the Glory in September - both good casino deals. We spend a lot of time in the casino and it is much cheaper (at least on a casino rate) to take a 4 day gambling cruise rather than spending even 2 days at the Hardrock Casino is Tampa. So, now I'm thinking it would be great to take at least one 3 - 5 day a year and think of it as a true casino cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
