Bon Voyage Department

[cantw82cruise]

I saw a thread the other day asking about the Bon Voyage Department. I would like to say I have used them three times now and thought they were just great. I just got back from cruising on the Spirit and my wife and I celebrated out 19th anniversary while on board. I had flowers sent to the room before we got there. I went with the large size and thought I got the best flowers I have ever seen for $40. I hope the picture works....

I'm going to check it out right now. Do you have any other video for your trip? If so I would love to check it out.

 

Call me "old news" but up until yesterday, I have never been on youtube before. Once I checked it out and found out that you can see videos of people and their cruises, I was loving it! Now not only am I a CC junkie but I am becoming addicted to viewing everybody else's cruises.:D

Yes, I will be posting video about the Freedom's Galley tour and some of the Islands we went too. I uses YouTube because its easy to upload your video. Also do a search under Jokes or Gags on YouTube if you want to laugh your butt off.

We have used Bon Voyage Dept. 2 times and loved it both times. I would highly recomend? them to anyone.

Is the Bon Voyage Dept. the same Dept. that processes the gift, etc from online? I recently purchased a few hundred dollars in gift certificates/OBC and a fruit and cheese basket. For $34.00, the basket looked a nice size. I know my florist charges twice that amount for the same size basket. They are quick to respond to questions. I replied to their email about my confirmations and every time they got back to me in minutes.

I ordered the medium size flowers for someone's upcoming trip, are they still pretty nice? or should I have just spent more $$ for the large flowers??

[gunner2u]

I have heard you can order liquor from bon voyage, but when I looked on the site through carnival I did'nt see any. Do I have to look somewhere else?

I ordered those same ones two years ago, and they were absolutely beautiful!! I expected very nice, but had some doubt they would be as pictured on their web sight. I was wrong, and they were exactly as pictured. I would not hesitate to order them again.

It's not online. You'll have to call them. I don't know the number, but someone will come along shortly with the information.

"Monday-Friday from 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM EST by calling our toll free number at 1-800-522-7648. "

 

This is what I found using Google. Have used them before to order wife's favorite in-room liquor. Works for us. It is expensive, but beats going to one of the lounges, bringing it back to your room -- spilling a bit along the way, knocking on your door hoping spouse (who is on the balcony with door closed) finally realizes you aren't back yet and comes looking to find you standing outside the cabin door with one empty glass and one partly full glass (from spillage, of course.);)

Glad to see positive posts about the room decorations. Dh's birthday is while we are at sea and I'm having them decorate our cabin. Didn't want to drag my own and slip away to put them up.:D

[deborahjo]

I did the beer, cooler, mug, and cap for like 20 or 30 bucks. Well worth it. He sent me the large fruit basket, yes it is extremely large, with fruit, crackers, cheese, and a bottle of wine. I twas awesome. We ate on it all week.

Thanks for that Fred....

 

All I can say is I have spent a lot more around home for a lot less flowers. They lasted all week with no problem as well.

Thanks for the #, that would be a pain getting back with everything still in tact.

Can someone tell me how the chocolate cake with mousse is?

[mommiejaxx]

I am curious about the cakes as well. I know everyone says thet are not that great but if you had to choose which one is better, would you pick the vanilla or chocolate one?

Also, is it possible to take your flowers home with you or do they really frown upon that?

 

Thanks in Advance...

I can't answer the cake question, but I think it depends upon the port as to whether you can take the flowers home. Most people will say that you cannot, they'd been forced to trash them. However, in Mobile, we were allowed to take the flowers home, after they had been closely inspected by customs. Sounds like a crap shoot to me. Be prepared to lose them, and pleasantly surprised if you don't.
