  1. Ours was the 15-day Transatlantic eastbound sailing on the Carnival Legend on 4/7/2013.

     

    Paid $339 each including port charges/taxes/fees....Carnival also kicked in $250 nonrefundable onboard credit.

     

     

     

    Please keep it related to Carnival cruises only.

     

     

     

    Thanks.

     

     

     

    As a solo cruiser, I have to pay for the whole cabin, a single supplement of 100%.

    By some sort of miracle, I was able to book a back to back (eastern and western 7 day cruises) in a very large outside cabin 2477 aboard the Liberty without paying this single supplement in January 2014. It was an amazing experience. I felt like I got two cruises for the price of one!

  2. I'll be going on my 8th in April next year, and until this year they have been Bahamas cruises with one West coast Mexican cruise thrown in and DH has only done the Bahamas and Grand Turk. So, last year, we also decided that for our next few cruises to only go on ones with new to us ports. We did our first Western Caribbean with 4 new ports back in May and we have the 8 day Eastern Caribbean booked for April with 3 out of 4 are new ports. After that, we are looking at doing the New England/Canada cruise that another couple we are friends with are looking at doing, so we still have some more port options for awhile :D

     

     

    A “non tropical” cruise to New England and Canada, would certainly be a different experience. I’m waiting for the fall 2020 itineraries to appear. It would take me to a part of my own country, I’ve never been to, Atlantic Canada. It’s a great idea.

  3. To me it has come to the point of exploring different options to do at each port.

    Searching and Google Earth has shown very interesting results.

     

     

    Some ports like Cozumel really lend themselves to return visits. There is a large variety of activities and experiences. Others like Grand Turk are quite small. I’ve been there three times in 7 cruises. Then again, there are worse places to revisit than Grand Turk!

  4. Friends we cruise with are feeling the same as us. Same ole, same ole. So we booked a journey cruise in February that goes to St. Croix, Guadelope, Martinique, Barbados, Tortola, Antigua and St. Marrten

     

    This cruise will be our 25th and we have only been to 3 of these islands in the past.

     

    There are cruises out there to different ports. Then other times, it not about the ports for us. It's just nice to get away and enjoy the ship.

     

     

     

    I had originally considered this cruise because of the French Islands I’ve never visited. It’s fantastic itinerary. I’m sure you’ll have a lovely time.

  5. Traveling is one of my passions and many of my friends are surprised that I enjoy cruising as I mostly travel independently, to far flung locations, stay at Airbnb’s, eat at local restaurants and enjoy culture, history, architecture.

    I travel very “economically ” and often.

    I call cruising my “easy” holiday. I love Carnival, I like the relative predictability of the experience. It’s like Starbucks, I know when I order a coffee at one of their stores in Tokyo or Miami, it’s going to be exactly what I want it to be.

    I’ve done things on a cruise such as zip lining, kayaking, helmet diving that I really wouldn’t do anywhere else.

    My rule with booking cruises is that there has to be at least one port I’ve never been to. I collect new locations as a hobby. It’s getting harder as I take more cruises!

    I’m going on my 8th cruise in November, a journey cruise on the Breeze. New ports!!!

    Are there any new ports you’d like to add to your collection?
