Tue-Thu.

Thanks!

I understand that I am impatient but......it is the week of the 12th.  Do they normally drop these on a certain day or is it random?

I must have misremembered the date.  Thank you all!

Thank you, that is exactly what I was shown, except it said Dec 7th.  Strange that August is available.  That is still summer 2024.

I have a good idea on what's behind your CC name. 

What do you mean?

Those dates are due out next week 

I was shown a Royal Schedule that said December 7th.  It was the latest date for all the releases.  Why do you say next week?

It pops up and then goes away.

So the Wonder OTS is available in 2024 now but not for May, June or July??  Anyone know why?  I can  look at August but I need to go in July.  This makes no sense.

in the search field put in St. Kitts.  You will be able to clink on a link that will show all the available sailings from each port.

Not what I mean,  at least not from what I saw, but thank you.  You used to be able to search the month you want to go and the ports.  Maybe I was dreaming but I am almost sure this was the case.  

a way to search cruise by ports the ships are going to?  Like many moons ago but I thought that was a thing.  If not it should be.  I would love to search by which ship is going to, say, St. Kitts. 

As a huge Playstation fan and the father of a Playstation fan, I really suggest not to bring it.  First off, depending on the generation you are bringing it is hard to replace if something happens.  Having your system break on a cruise is not a fun thing to go though.  Second, due to the power they don't even let you bring your own hair dryer.  Why do you think they will not stop you from plugging in a Playstation.  And just because you can plug it in does not mean you should.  Third, and maybe most importantly, it is so much more fun to be away from the Playstation for a bit.  My family, maybe like yours, cruise a lot so we love to find out new things to do.

Not at all, I’m always open to suggestions.  That could actually be a good call, perhaps an 8 day cruise, 5 days at Universal would work as we will also need a night in Port Canaveral before the cruise which could take us to the 14 nights. 

 

 

Now all you need to do is take me with you!  🤣

We would be staying 2 weeks and having a week in Universal after our Cruise. 

I don't want to stick my nose in someone's vacation but you sorta asked.  Depending on where you stay at Universal, a week is way too long.  It can be done in 3 days, especially if you have their "fast pass".  It is only 2 parks.  That would leave you more days for a cruise if the days lined up, of course.   

I was on a full Mardi Gras this past summer and it was fine.  You'll be amazed how the crowds spread out.  The main pool gets crowded but we would find spots in Summer Landing for example.

Only Icon has any sails listed for North America.

But in December, according to that list, I can see the Wonder.  I know ICON is open now, I saw that.

@Ourusualbeach Thank you!!  Looking forward to the week of December 12th!

Looking for Wonder OTS for July of 2024.  So far they only go out to April 2024.  I'm like itching to see if it sales the itinerary I want.

State or affairs has nothing to do with it. I’m not taking about this year. I’m taking about forever. How far is it to New Orleans? Would you pay $1800 for a 5 day on Breeze vs. $1400 for a 8 day on Glory? That’s what I’m talking about. You don’t have to fly to Miami.
 

Texans are fanatical about doing everything in Texas. They dont go to disney world. They go to six flags/Astro world. They dont go to Cancun. They go to south padre Island. I know people who have never left Dallas in their lives.

 

Kyndall Fire is a perfect example of a Texan. Vista CD. She’s  only on Mardi Gras to get the experience to be the first Jubilee CD. Has to be a Texan out of Texas. Because it’s Texas.

 

I watch this couple out of the UK that does YouTube reaction videos.  The one I watched yesterday was on the Civil War. At the end they said even though there are states people fly the US flag not the state flag. The state they used as an example was Texas and I was like….ehhhhh. That’s the worst state you could pick because there are more state flags flying in Texas than any other state.

 

Not EVERY Texan,  for example a famous Disney blog is run by a lady from Texas.  She goes all the time to Disney.

On Vista Oct 15-22.

Still had propulsion issues which caused the total itinerary change because the ship couldn't go fast enough to get to Jamaica.

But some people thought it was a cost issue to save fuel? Only a real problem for the Cozumel stop where we had to leave at 3 pm to get back to Galveston on time. The Dream, which left Cozumel after us, overtook us the next day and got to Galveston about 2 hours ahead of us! 

 

No hot water for about 12 hours during one of the port stops. People had to cold shower after their excursions and before dinner.

 

Major issue for me was that they did not have the Red Frog ale. It was not delivered to the ship.

 

 

See all this is what I am worried about.  They do not seem to be able to fix this propulsion issue.  We travel with people that I really want them to see Grand Cayman, one of our ports, and I'm afraid of it not getting there. The cold shower is no fun either.

I was on the ship in April and July.  In April there was a propulsion problem and we were a little late back to Galveston.  In July no issues at all.  We had no issues with hot water on either sailing.  She's a great ship the only thing I didn't like was the main show room with the pillars in the way of most seats and the floor with terrible seats.

Thank you so much for the information! 

I'm going on the Vista in the summer and starting to do research into her.  I am hearing  propeller issues and hot water problems.  Any one hear if Carnival plans to address these? 

Did they add new things or is it just the same ship?  I have been on Oasis and I am trying to decide between Wonder and Icon.  I know not a lot is out on Icon so I would like to gather intel on Wonder (which is the leader in the club house).

I loved the MG.  It was under staffed but not that bad. We went in June so prime summer months.  It was packed.  As much as I love the MG, I would go on the Magic.  I love the ports, it is 8 days, and and class is great, IMO.  Good luck!

I did Shaq's since I had never had it before.  LOVED IT!

Hands down the Venus Rising at Fortune Teller's Bar.  So good.
