Nothing says vacation like a Umbrella drink when you first get on the ship

Went with friends had a great time. Was a nice getaway.

Yes I applied 3 of them last cruise. Worked out great. We applied them at check in

Have to laugh when we got to Florida it was straight to Publix for their fried chicken

TPA is considered one of the best in the nation

Hey there! Curious about flying into Tampa vs. Orlando...how far was the drive from Tampa to Port Canaveral? Where did you leave the rental car? Sailing in April and starting to look at flights, but I never considered this option!

My neighbor is a Dialysis nurse at Sea. She loves her job and is a great nurse

When we go on a bus they adk us to put $1 a bag in the envelope going around .The porters seem happy to see a bus because they know there is at least 75 to 100 in that envelope and it is an easy 15 minutes to get all the suitcases on their way. Coming back several of us use the same porters so they can take a lot of us at once

We had a balcony last cruise hardly used it. Would rather have an inside. Like being out with people

You can buy a 12 pack from them for 4.99 it will be delivered to your room if you order it in advance. Makes it less to carry on

I am loving your review. Do you write for a living. I feel we are with you. A beautiful family

I have a black dress that never wrinkles have worn it for years. So it is my go to dress for Elegant night. My husband wears his Tommy Bahama tropical shirt and a pair of slacks. It is as elegant as we are going to get. We look nice and are comfortable too. Although my husband changes into shorts as soon as dinner is over. Its your vacation have fun and do not worry about what others think, they will never see you again and unless they are paying your bills they do not count in your life.

What ship is coming to Tampa?

Thank you I really enjoyed your review. Your excursions made me wish I was younger. It was fun seeing the pictures. Enjoy and love the rest of your life it goes so fast.

I just wanted to say this is one of the best reviews I ever read. We love the Fantasy it was the ship my daughter was married on. Congrats on the graduation and job offer. Beautiful family

We have 2 cruises booked and both gave us 50 OBC from Carnival as past guests on inside cabins . We have additional OBC for the second cruise from the travel agent who put our cruise together . We have 40 people going on that one and if we gave our deposit a year in advance we got an extra 100 per cabin

My daughter got married on the Fantasy. Easiest wedding planning ever. Ice sculptures, food and drinks every thing was perfect. Beautiful cake too. We all went on the cruise and she was married in Nassau 24 friends and family

Can someone tell me about Tampa? We are a group of 18 people and I know not everyone will have the same time. We are carpooling 4 cars to get everyone to the port and hope some will not have to wait outside for their time. We tried to get a bus to take us and pick us up but they wanted $640 for a 25 mile trip. The parking Dr is $45 a car for the whole week so we felt 180 split 18 ways was better than the bus.

Not a six hour trip but have a four hour from Clearwater area to Canaveral. Leave at 7 there before noon

Paradise in October and the Sunshine March 2019

The Captain's page said problem fixed. He is not the captain of the ship he works at the Tampa terminal and makes boarding fun.

Perhaps not valid to you, but valid to me. Lanyards are removable and are worn by choice. Wristbands are not removable.

If they are like Disney yes they are they attach like a bracelet

My daughter got married on the Fantasy she had hers done with her Tiara it was beautiful

Loved your review sad to see it end. Will be on the Paradise in October and the Sunshine in March.
