It's been a while since I've cruised on Carnival and I want to book a soda and wifi package, at today's prices, for a cruise next year. If for whatever reason, I need to cancel the cruise, will there be a problem in getting a refund for these packages?

I haven't cruised on Carnival in many years. I'm thinking about booking the Venezia for next year. I've read many reviews that were very mixed. Can anyone give me more info, pro or con?

Also, what are the costs for soda and wifi packages.

Are there any MDR menus posted on line?

I use an old set sail card from a previous cruise.

Thank you.  I have recovered as well as can be expected.  Fortunately those who survive a brainstem stroke (according to my neurologist, the survival rate is quite low...approx. 5%) typically only suffer from lifelong balance issues.  That is my only lingering problem.  I just take my time and am careful.  I did a TA from Rome this past October (a bit challenging, but I felt a sense of accomplishment having done it) and we just got back from 14 days on a Caribbean cruise.  I won't let this hold me back.  Covid already stole too many travel years, I don't want to give up anymore.  At the age of 68, I know my traveling years are becoming more and more limited with each passing birthday!LOL

Jerseygirl3-I just celebrated my 82nd birthday on Anthem OTS and I have 3 more cruises booked this year. Hopefully you'll have many more cruises ahead of you.

Thank you.

Does anyone know the approximate cost for 2 people from the cruise ship port to Parotte Ville Bird Sanctuary?

No change. They're wrong.

I've purchased a Thermal Area Cruise Pass and I've read online that there's a scarcity of towel stations on the Meraviglia. Are towels available in the Thermal Area?

Additionally, if you have a Windows or Mac laptop, you can log the laptop into the wifi, turn your laptop's signal sharing on, and now use additional devices.  However, the device must be within range of the laptop and also it divides the wifi speed between devices

How do you turn on signal sharing? This is the first time I've heard of that.

Where do you get soda or drinks at the buffet? Are there bars inside or outside the buffet?

Would there be a problem bringing a bottle of gatorade on board? I use it to take my medication.

Im here now and I offered a taxi driver $2 extra in Canadian dollars(all I had left) for a large bill or a lot bigger tip on my credit card. He preferred the cash. Used up all of my Canadian dollars. Tomorrow, I'll Uber to the port.

Can you pay for Quebec City taxis by credit card and/or American dollars?

Thanks everybody.

Is the Solarium enclosed? How many hot tubs are there in the Solarium? How big are they?

Last month on the Equinox every dish except when we ordered pasta had mashed potatoes and the portions were minuscule, maybe a shot glass full.

I always ask for double mashed potatoes. That solves the small portion problem.

No. It's just not opened yet. Try at midnight

On our previous 2 Oasis class cruises we sent an email to rccldining requesting a 2 person table near the railing to separate us from other tables as much as possible and the emails were forwarded to the ship and our request was taken care of. Does the Jewel OTS dining room have any similar tables? We're not familiar with the layout of the MDR on the Jewel.

On Oasis OTS, is Johnny Rockets open for lunch on embarkation day?

Not necessary to denigrate Captain Kate.

What if you booked directly with MSC?

We sail on Thursday and were notified today about our unsuccessful bid.

We'll be in an Aquaclass cabin on our Summit cruise next week. I've seen shoe-shining service listed as one of the benefits. Is that still available?

Amazing that this topic is still going strong

 OP here. I  decided to book  the Dec. 2nd Meraviglia cruise without my TA. I've  had a status match to Gold and gotten my discounts by talking on the phone with MSC. So far so good. I'm  wondering  how check-in  will go in September. 

yes
