The latest flight out for us is 12:50 and CCL said no flights out of Hobby until 1:30. If we don’t use Carnival transfers can we make this flights?

I have never did this type of dining. Is it possible to get the same wait staff each night? Is there still the singing and dancing waiters?

I think you missed the biggest point, there won’t be any cruises until 2021. I am friends with numerous crew members on Facebook. Several of them are in the process of returning home even though they are within the first few months of their current contract. I don’t think Carnival and other cruise lines would be sending people home if they were planning to resume operations any time soon.
I am glad you have cleared this up and we won’t sail until 2021. Problem is I called CCL to discuss moving my booking since you said we won’t sail till 2021 and they have no idea what you are talking about and where you got your information but it is incorrect.

It worries me that if they are just taking them home, are they really going to be back in time for June’s return to sailing.

It seems that a few weeks ago the hot topics were butter pats, wearing rude cruising shirts, and whether the platinum gift was good enough to gain our loyalty. I miss those days. Any other vip topics you miss?
I was on this with you, I will never forget my daughters reaction to this dress!!! Fun times!

If we pick up a car at Hobby is there a place to turn it back in near the port?

I feel in love with a ring I found on board. It was 50% off but still very expensive. Has anyone bought jewelry on board and is it legitimate as they tell you it is?

Any new updates on the Magic?

How far is the walk from the ship to the pool area in Amber Cove? My friend has some mobility issues and has a hard time walking very far.

Are we able to use the elevators for self assist?😎

-
And why do people call it Captains night, I haven't ever saw the captain at dinner?
-
I know from years of cruising that 10:45 am flight is not a great idea, but it’s FLL and not MIA. Any recent Magic cruisers remember when the starting for time self assist was?
-
Leaving the Magic and don’t want to do self assist, I am platinum so I can get off zone 1. Is this time possible?

Anyone hear or see pictures of Half Moon Cay after the storm?

Dis he on e of the CD's that gets involved with the activates or just sends the Fun Squad to do it all?

When were your elegant nights?

The day after a cruise is always the hardest. I woke up this morning with nobody to greet me but my alarm clock :(. To make myself feel better, I thought I would start a review of our just completed 8 day Southern Caribbean adventure on the Carnival Magic. I like to do these reviews for a few reasons. First, it lets me put down (in writing) our memories, which I then will print and stick in our photobook. Second, I love reading other people's reviews and I hope that I can add something the CC community by providing my thoughts and recollections. You can have a look at my other review linked in my signature below.
To start, we traveled as a party of 5. My wife, my son (B; age 8), my daughter (L; age 11), and my mother-in-law. We had two cabins on the Lido deck. Not next to each other, but just a few doors apart. We divided into a girls room and a boys room (for cost reasons). We love staying on Lido as it give us direct access to so many events and is not far from the water slides and the mini-golf, two of my kids favorite activities on board. This was our second time on the Magic for my wife, the kids, and I. It was also the first time on Carnival for my MIL. She has been a Princess/RCCL cruiser in the past. We flew down on Friday evening from Baltimore and stayed in Dania Beach at the Home2Suites. It was prefect for our needs, with extra space, free breakfast, and free parking. They offer a shuttle to the cruise port, but we rented a car from Alamo instead. We picked it up at the airport and dropped off at the Eller Drive facility the morning of the cruise. We got a little lost finding the drop of point, but after a course correction, we found the process to be easy and simple. It also gave us flexibility to explore on Friday, which included the Disney Character Warehouse at Sawgrass, dinner at a local Mexican restaurant, and ice cream at Jaxsons!
I paid for FTTF for both rooms (booked about 2 months apart, as after I got it for the first room, it was sold out again). We arrived at Alamo about 10 am, dropped the car and got right on a shuttle. The Celebrity Equinox was also in port with us and we shared the shuttle with a family going on that ship. We were the first drop off and we were through the line and on the ship quickly, with only about a 5 minute wait in the waiting area before groups were boarded. I love FTTF because you get immediate access to your cabin, so we dropped off our stuff and started exploring an old friend.
More in a bit, as I have to run to a meeting!

What cabin did you have on the Lido, do you have pictures?

I do know it’s official name is Little San Salvador but I can’t find any information on where exactly it’s located
Are there any countries open for us to sail to?
