Since you already paid the double fare you will be fine. The taxes and port fees you paid should also be refunded to you once on board.

Never mind. I found it listed in my cabin confirmation email.

I booked an upcoming cruise with a casino offer of $500 OBC and I think "Drinks on Us". I believe there were other perks but I can not remember. My question is, is there a way to see the original offer or what all is included? I see the OBC on my account but no where does it say about the DOU or other casino perks. 

Thanks and cheers! 

I also booked this offer. Just curious where in your account did you see the $500 OBC?

While I love San Juan. I think the best choice for you would be the Panama cruise as it has all ports your family has never been to before. Like @Saint Greg said the San Juan route is offered year round.

I think this a good topic that Geckoaz has started.  I am sure there are some less than great cabins on ships.  We can all get some good advice from others who have been in them, so we either avoid them, or know what to expect if we end up stuck with one. 

 

I agree ☝️ 

The "worst" cabin experience I ever had was a balcony room one floor up from the music stand by the casino on the Glory. The music there is played late into the morning and it was difficult to go to sleep some nights. This actually turned out to be a good thing because it was my first solo experience and forced me to stay out of the room more and have more fun around the ship.

Like others have said, I have been allowed to substitute a second app instead of a salad but no extra apps other than that. I have never left the steak house hungry though. I do sometimes have a difficult time deciding, so many great choices!

Just Testing to see if the pictures will post.

I was nervous when I did my first solo cruise as well but I had a great time. It's great to go to the beat of your own drum. Looking forward to your review.

My family is trading on the Sunshine in January for our first journey cruise.

Jaime Dee will not be on the ship as she announced that she would be leaving Carnival in May.

Looking forward to this one! My family sets sail with this ship and itinerary October 24th.

Pictures coming out great now.

Can't wait for the rest of your review!! We sail glory in 70 days!!!!! We booked a cabana in HMC as well and we are hoping for 9 or 10.

We are on this cruise in August, first Caribbean and first Carnival cruise for us, so looking forward to the rest of your report!

When in August? We sail on August 22. I can't wait!

I am looking forward to this review as I'll be doing the same itinerary on the same ship in August. :)

Thanks for the reply but they are all sold out now :-(

AARP website has them available right now also. You do not have to be a member of AARP, just join the website.

Where on the site did you see them?

VIFP points are your days sailing with carnival. It determines what level of the loyalty program you fall into (I.E red,gold, diamond, or platinum).

I need some suggestions for a hotel to stay in the night before our cruise leaving from the port of Miami. We live in Florida so we usually drive down the day of the cruise but we thought it would be nice to sleep in a little bit and drive down the day before. Any insights into some decent hotels with a park and cruise option would be great.

I can't give you an answer about the laundry. Who wants to work on vacation?

I did the chefs table on the sunshine and it was by far the best meal I have had on a carnival ship! It was more than just the meal as the whole experience was fantastic.

How did it go for you on the sunshine? Where did they seat you? If I did do it, would it be awkward to take pictures of the food?

I had a great time. The sit down portion of the meal was in a part of the steak house partitioned off just for our group. I took pictures of the whole experience and I never had any problems.

They did not have the American Table menus a few weeks ago. I was on her from Jan 31 thru February 7.

I'll be on the same cruise. I'm doing last minute packing right now! I can't wait.

I think that the $35 additional charge is well worth the food and service you receive. I always eat at least one night in the steakhouse and I have yet to be disappointed.
