CharmedLifer Posted September 14, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2021 So we are day 2 at sea. Any challenges during embarkation have been solved. Had 3pm boarding - when we arrived from Long Beach airport using the cruise transfer (11am shuttle)- our bags were whisked away by the porters on minutes. We walked directly into the terminal and within 15 minutes were on board. I was in the pool 30 mins later. Bags arrived by 4pm. Ship has about 2500 on board. As others have said there is no wait for food, reservations or lounge chairs. Service has been excellent. Lido buffet and Vista dining room food has been unimpressive but all that depends on your POV and experience. The gym has been great if not full of passengers. Masks required and they enforce it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowballs mom Posted September 14, 2021 #2 Share Posted September 14, 2021 (edited) @CharmedLifer, do you happen to know what time the first shuttle leaves Long Beach airport? The Carnival website is still showing noon for the Panorama, but that is obviously incorrect. Thank you!

pinto18 Posted September 14, 2021 #3 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Masks are required at the gym? ( like if you are on treadmill?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesah Posted September 14, 2021 #4 Share Posted September 14, 2021 @CharmedLifer Thanks for posting. We're scheduled to sail on 9/25. Can you share your plans while in port? Excursions through cruise line or on your own? Are proper protocols being followed in ports? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Beach Bum Posted September 14, 2021 #5 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Also on this same cruise. Embarkation was a breeze. Probably helped that ship was back on time. We boarded just before 11am. Main dining and buffet very similar to pre- covid. Haven’t noticed any differences. Lot of other food choices as well. Masking is being enforced in show rooms, casino, shops, elevators, lido buffet, and elevators. Other than that most not wearing masks where it’s not required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
