Cruising southern Caribbean out of Puerto Rico ?
Dixe Lee replied to Gari's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
We sailed the Southern Caribbean out of PR on Celebrity in April of this year. Awesome cruise, great itinerary. We sailed on the Millenium which then went to Alaska. You may want to check this out for later this year or next? -
We have sailed twice over Halloween. We took our costumes both times (Count and Mrs Dracula) We had a blast. The costume contest was awesome! We were amazed at the work some put in to their costumes and the various categories and winners wore some of the best costumes we have ever seen. One of the winners were the trio who showed up as the Blue Man Group and they totally deserved it. Big deck party before the contest and afterwards as well. Can’t say that we noticed people wearing costumes after Halloween was over, but for sure done up well the day off. Kids also had a blast! Top deck was full, couldn’t say how many people dressed up but enough that the deck party was full blast.

Man Overboard on Carnival Valor found alive
Dixe Lee replied to BlerkOne's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I understand but I can also picture him doing that very thing. Just depends on how badly he would have wanted to keep ahold of that vaping device. Of course, all conjecture. -
Man Overboard on Carnival Valor found alive
Dixe Lee replied to BlerkOne's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Maybe, since he was vaping and drunk (according to reports) he was standing by the rail vaping, the device started to slip out of his hand, he tried to grab it, reached to far lost his balance and fell over the rail? Drunk and probably not to steady on his feet. -

No I think she just lumped all us cruisers into one -

Jackie Heinrich on Fox News just reported on this story and declared that this is just another reason not to go on a cruise😕 give me a break. She makes it sound as if there are people falling overboard all over the place! -
Military Gathering Cruise Director Policy
Dixe Lee replied to aqualibra's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Sorry to respectfully disagree. We had a couple of international military servicemen at the last one we attended in October (can’t remember the country they were from) but they appeared to us to be highly honored to be recognized. Since most attendees show up, not having to sign up in advance or anything like that it would be difficult for CCL to know which countries will be represented but I don’t think anyone left feeling like they were not welcomed and graciously thanked for their service. -
Military Gathering Cruise Director Policy
Dixe Lee replied to aqualibra's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
DH and I have been to a few of these. DH former Marine and I am retired Army. US national anthem played along with the songs representing each of the services (US forces). Towards the end a shout out was given to troops from any other countries and they were asked to stand and be recognized but national anthems from those other countries were not played. These are totally awesome celebrations to recognize our active and retired military members as well as a thank you to the families for their support. -

Thanks that helps me a lot. Really makes it more clear just how miraculous it was finding him! -
Man Overboard on Carnival Valor found alive
Dixe Lee replied to BlerkOne's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I have been trying to figure out how it was determined that he went overboard. Was it because he was missing and couldn’t be found on the ship so it was assumed he must’ve gone overboard? And how did the authorities know where he went overboard so they would know where to search? I must be missing something. -
Debarkation Carry Off Luggage - thoughts?
Dixe Lee replied to cellfree's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
We just came off Liberty. Tags were at the coffee shop on Deck 5. We got there shortly after they became available to pickup and all of the early times were already gone. -
Thanks Seashell337 for the advice!

Thanks for your quick reply shof515! Appreciate you!

Can the hub app be used without having an internet package? We weren’t planning on purchasing an internet package. I guess the days of checking our S&S accounts on the in-room TV’s are gone as well as purchasing shore excursions using the TV? Showing our age I guess 😳

Thank you MeganGC1983!!!! We sail on October 31st, first time in a few years and being able to see these has really brought back to us the fun of cruising and the excitement has really kicked in to high gear. Appreciate you:)
-
Awesome and thanks for the review!!!!!!! Hadn’t seen anything recently posted so very glad to read your post. We sail on Liberty for the first time leaving on Halloween and this review definitely builds up the excitement! Good tip for the balcony room as we upgraded to one. I was planning on taking a 3-way plug instead of a power strip. Hopefully that will work just fine. Appreciate you 😁😁😁

Don’t know why I never thought to do that but surely will from now on Thanks!

I know this is a Carnival thread but glad to join you on this cruise! The itinerary is one of the best we have seen for the Southern Caribbean. We are looking forward to our first sailing on Celebrity. There is a roll call started on the Celebrity board. Not much action yet but plenty of time to converse between now and then.
