NY Cruise Forced to Dock Because of Fight
charliesdad63 replied to BoozinCroozin's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Well this is true; however, in this case, I think genteel is being kindly used in place of senior. -
NY Cruise Forced to Dock Because of Fight
charliesdad63 replied to BoozinCroozin's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I have no idea but no matter what deck I choose for my cabin, they always have a cabin nearby. Screaming down the hall at each other in the middle of the night as if they are the only ones on board at 2, 3, 4 am. -
How does wifi calling work on board?
charliesdad63 replied to slavigne5577's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
You can grab a wifi signal from restaurants or Starbucks in ports to do your wifi calls. -
On the Freedom last weekend. Had to go to guest services MULTIPLE times. First denied because I'm a travel agent. I explained I paid retail for this cruise and she sent another email. Second time, they wanted all of the documentation that I already supplied in May (and THREE recent months of statements). Third time, I checked and corporate had not yet responded. Left yesterday morning without the OBC applied. I received a denial of a different cruise (booked with a TA discount) and responded immediately with a question about the Freedom lack of response and was told it was applied. So, how do I find out where the money went?

I usually have the steward bring me an extension cord. I either use the liter bottle of spring water in the room or order a gallon of distilled. I won't drink the tap water and don't want to breathe it either. 🙂

I'm here now on Freedom. I've seen it. Believe it.

Currently on the Freedom sailing on my 25th Carnival cruise. This is a whole new side of Carnival that I've never seen before. The lines are never ending. I tried all week to get to the Mongolian Wok but the lines wrapped out into the elevator lobby. The Lido buffet was equally long. I gave up and went to the deli which was 30 minutes start to finish. FOR A SANDWICH. The checkin for breakfast on 1 morning said 10-20 minutes and the other 2 mornings said less than 10. I was never seated in less than 30 minutes. It took an hour yesterday from checkin (listed at less than 10 minutes) until I got tea and toast in the dining room. Today, I waited in my room for 45 minutes and then went to the dining room to see what was happening. I was no longer on the waiting list and they have no idea why. I was seated immediately but I'm glad I didn't just wait around in my room. I never got off the ship this sailing so I can't speak to how long it took to get on/off at the ports.

Pride European cruisers, tell us all about it

Have any of the ports thus far provided free or inexpensive shuttles from the ship to town? -

If I had that balcony, I would have spent most of my time out there too. 🙂 -

I do. Some people do the deck parties, the sail away parties, the night club, the old hairy chest competitions, etc. That's definitely not my idea of a holiday. Some people read a book on their balcony in peace and listen to the ocean. That's me. We can all have fun.- 227 replies

Don't we all wish we did? Haha. Just feeling impatient.

I'm booked on 6/16. I'd really like to know if we are being canceled so that I can get on Conquest for next Monday instead.

Anyone on the Pride in Europe? Any updates?
charliesdad63 replied to Eli_6's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I think someone already started this topic. You may want to search for it. -
Carnival Pride - Playlist and Entertainment
charliesdad63 replied to ScratchTheRat's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
How many other shows do they have on the longer cruises (i.e. the ones in Europe this summer)? -

charliesdad63 replied to Clairescurtains's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Thanks for the review. I am anxiously waiting for my B2B2B to begin with the 7/10 sailing. How is the wifi? I've heard it is sluggish? I will have to do a few calls while on board. I've learned from previous cruises to work in the middle of the night when there are fewer users and that trying to work in the middle of a sea day is asking for a migraine. -
Well at least the Carnival 'entertainers' are paid for their off key singing. Always a silver lining.
-
You are correct, sir. Already got my cancellation notice.
-
FYI - I received notice that both the 2nd and 6th have been cancelled. All other weeks are still open for booking.
-
Just received notice that my June 2nd cruise has been canceled.
-
Yes and no. If I go, I go. If I can't, I'll use the money later. Who knows. It could just be superficial and easily patched up.

No slowpokes sleeping in and loitering on Lido today. Rise and shine, family.

So I just booked Freedom for 6/2. Any chances I'm going? LOL
