Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted August 8, 2021 #276 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Hey Jimbo - What means of communication does Carnival now use, in their app centric world, to notify guests of Diamond events? Does that still generate a physical invite in your cabin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, no more unlimited drinks and snacks. You get a glass of wine free when entering and a “coupon” for a drink at any bar afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TooManyWakeUpsTilWeSail Posted August 8, 2021 #280 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Loving the almost empty lounge chairs and pool…on a sea day no less. If there was an affordable concept for such when life gets back to normal. No way I’d go on the Mardi Gras at full capacity (even their scaled down Havana). But the dining options blow my mind.

I asked GS and they said there was 3800 people. Might explain some of the not crowded aspect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always enjoyed the Fresh Creations salad area! What capacity would you say the ship is sailing at? Really enjoying this live review....it's been a long overdue! I asked at GS they said 3800 might explain some of the emptiness feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things are so different one week then changes the next. Oh wait, you’re talking Horizon right? Cause I was talking about the plat/diamond thing on Mardi Gras. Sorry, my original response to Tom was confusing, I shoulda threw in on Mardi Gras instead of just relating my experience on the Horizon and throwing that aspect in there without context. If only editing was a thing after 15min. Edited August 8, 2021 by Cruise Related Clarification 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the same thing on the inaugural last week on the Mardi Gras. Saw a video by Paradeejay and they got a glass of white wine and a sail n sign credit to cover 1 drink. Wonder if I would lose my credit since I bought Cheers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never even used the ones you’re supposed to use at brunch. I had assumed cheers invalidates that kinda stuff so never bothered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never used the paper ones except for the first time we had Cheers back in 2013 when the coffees were not included and we used them at sea day brunch and got cappuccinos. It's a credit now on your sail n sign for X amount of money to reimburse you for a drink. Don't see how they can tie it into a drink purchase specifically, so hopefully it'll go towards covering drink taxes while still in port on embarkation day.
