They might be triaging the responses based on cruise dates. Also that makes me think they have given out ALOT of casino deals. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just need to fill out all the required boxes. If you leave any boxes empty that means you haven't given them all the info needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everywhere on the ship. You do not have to wait till the first night. Present your room key to the bartender and it would activate your Drinks On Us! card. " I am booked on the on us package. And they told me no drinks the first night and also not anywhere else on the ship. Except the casino floor. Im on board right now.

I thought that the "Free Drinks While in the Casino" meant actually playing at a machine or table. So getting rid of the casino bar means you can't walk up to the bar and get a free drink with the "Free Drinks While in the Casino" because it's actually "free drinks while playing at a machine or table while in the casino." The long lines sounds frustrating 😞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first Carnival cruise I got the Bottomless Bubbles package but then got enough points at the casino for free drinks at the casino. I thought it was great cause the 1-2 alcohol drinks I have a day I would get from the casino. Until I found out you have to be playing. And when you are in port the casino is closed. It was not a good deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't just walk up to the bar and order a drink. I am sure people have had that happen in the past but I found out my first Carnival cruise. That is why I know the drinks on us while playing in the casino isn't a good deal because you have to be playing in the casino, find a bartender, and get them to come back with a drink. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, what if I wait "until just the right time" to spin the wheels on that penny slot? LOL Honestly, I'm not going to try to game the system in such a way, but it's fun doing the mental gymnastics. 🙂 Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare EngIceDave Posted July 18, 2021 #67 Share Posted July 18, 2021 RESOLUTION! OK, apparently I booked under code FJ7 * UP TO a suite cabin * $500 in Freeplay * Free drinks anywhere So, was previously able to secure a Cloud 9 Balcony Cabin, offering free all time access to the thermal suite. Nothing higher available.....I'm good with that. Now, I did buy a bubbles package that I no longer need. I asked if it can go to shipboard credit or not, said "No" cancel online and card would be credited. Said it was much faster and easier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
