ANY HELP WOULD BE GRATEFUL!!!!! well, gsully... quite honestly...........you 'did' lose me... but that's not Your fault.........LOL Let me see..... ok....I have read here that you can tell them at the Purser's Desk (Information Desk) on board about any limits or blocks you want on the SScard.. I am not sure if the procedure would be different (or more difficult) using a credit card.. Call Carnival... and Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 13, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted July 13, 2004 1 Adult is with 1 child, while the same set-up is in the other cabin next door, thats the way it is on the sail&sign cards, but the kids want to sleep in the same cabin. But both of our credit cards(same account) will be used for each cabin, you get it now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted July 13, 2004 #4 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Head to the Pursers desk and let them get it straight. Its not a problem. Take all the sign and sail cards with you. Will you be buying soda cards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 14, 2004 Author #5 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Yes, soda cards are a must :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted July 14, 2004 #6 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Not much more for the kids to buy online. also you can always view the spending on the tv in your cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 14, 2004 Author #7 Share Posted July 14, 2004 How about video games onboard, do they accept coins?--other than that, I don't think they would shop in the duty-free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 16, 2004 Author #8 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Also, how old do you have to be to gamble--website says"No one under 18 allowed in casino", doesn't tell you if the 18 yr olds can gamble--let me know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrusinDan Posted July 16, 2004 #9 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Yes the 18 yr. olds can gamble. Mine are 19 and can't wait, heaven help me.:rolleyes: They close the casino when in port but open while at sea. Have a great cruise!! Our kids might meet on this one.

gsully00 Posted July 16, 2004 Author #10 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Hey Dan, thanks for the info---very helpful !!! :) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted July 17, 2004 #11 Share Posted July 17, 2004 For the arcades---you can buy tokens or you can use your sign and sail card. (URGH) My kids never spent any time in there and they are huge video game players at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 19, 2004 Author #12 Share Posted July 19, 2004 That is the main bummer there--both these kids love the video games, guess we will just have to see, hopefully they'll behave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethm214 Posted July 19, 2004 #13 Share Posted July 19, 2004 i am not so sure you want to tell the purser the kids are staying alone...if they are not YOUR kids you may be breaking their rule that says: How old do you have to be to travel alone?Guests are required to be 21 years old (on embarkation day) to travel. Guests under the age of 21 must be accompanied in the same stateroom by a parent or guardian 25 or older. The exceptions Carnival will make to this policy are: 1) Parents that are traveling with their children in different staterooms. The bookings must be cross-referenced and documented that they are parents and children traveling together. It sure is a sticky mess...i hope they will let you put restrictions on the cards. I am assuming these kids don't have the cash to put up first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 20, 2004 Author #14 Share Posted July 20, 2004 Thanks for the info Beth-- They certainly don't have the money for deposit--since the amount of money they will prob. bring would be the amount of deposit(200-300 dollars)-- hope all will go OK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsully00 Posted July 28, 2004 Author #15 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Our cruise is 2 1/2 days away, will they find out if I have a bottle of Rum stashed away in my checked luggage, wrapped real good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted July 28, 2004 #16 Share Posted July 28, 2004 Not if its in your luggage you hand to the porters. Do not take the chance and carry it on. Also. put it in a bag incase it breaks. hate to have all that wet clothes on a cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
