Off topic, but just in case you want to know, Carnival Panorama and Venezia both carry Gosling's Ginger Beer in their bars.  Cost is approx $4 (+18%) per can.

 

They add lime juice to their Dark and Stormy, which addition I do not care for.

Do you know if they have gosling rum to go with it ?

Thanks you, it's good to know that the are still available. If I don't see them I will be sure to ask

I remember a pastry basket either being served by waitstaff or set on the table in the MDR B.C. (before Covid) but I haven't seen the basket since the Restart.  The cream cheese danish were delish!

Yes they served them in the pastry basket but we used to ask if we could just get the cream cheese ones and they often brought us a plate of them.

If you have a Costco near you, they have great ones.

Thank you but I am not from the USA

I don't recall cream cheese danishes because I surely would have gotten one.  Did you have them in the MDR?  They have a vanilla custard Danish on the buffet which are pretty tasty if you get them fresh.

I had them in the main dinning room at breakfast times whilst on the Breeze 

Hello

Haven't sailed on Carnival since 2019 and due to sail in the Venezia next month and wondering if Carnival still serve cream cheese Danishes at breakfast.

They aren't a thing where I am from and we love it to have them when we can get them.

Thanks

Hello

I am just wondering can you walk through the new port area and exit it towards Senor Frogs or do you need to loop back around and head out the main exit 

Thanks 

Hello

I am just looking at a bookiing a cruise and have noticed that some of VIPF offers are offering $1000 OBC, Can anyone please confirm what you can actutally spend this credit on, For instance can you use it to pay your daily gratutites or for purchasing drink packages. 

Thanks 

Thank you 

I remember reading sometime back that there isTaxis availabe near the port that have blue flags and these are availabe to take for tours of Bermuda 

Can anyone confirm if these are indeed available and if they know roughly what they charge for tours per hour. 

Thank you 

Hello

I think I read sometime ago that Carnival doesn't offer drink packages on European cruises.  

Can anyone confirm if this is true? 

Hello

We have made reservations for Chop and Teppanaki for our cruise next week. We booked them as separate bookings because we wanted to secure our dates and the Chops +1 only allows you to make one reservation ahead of sailing. 

My questions is if we wanted to add another dinning venue such as Park 150 whilst on board, would they allow us to upgrade to the 3 restaurant package? 

Has anyone done this successfully on board? 

Thanks 

I just want to be 100% certain of this and have our tests done as early as possible due to our travel arrangements.

We are sailing on a Sunday out of port canaveral, so can we test just after midnight on Thursday  so 12.01am Friday morning? 

Thanks

I can't say this is true for all ships, but when my son was younger Chops never had an issue letting him order off the adult menu,  mainly bc the sides are served family style. He usually ordered the petit filet (I believe 6oz). Between the salad, apps and dessert that was plenty of food and he has always had a robust appetite.

Thanks for the reply

My son has a healthy appetite for an 11 year old boy, but he plays several sports and trains hard.

I have no doubt that there will be plenty of food on the table with all of the appetizers and side dishes. I was just concerned that he would look at his older brothers plate and see a big steak and feel like he has been left out, but the responsible part of me keeps saying it will be enough food and enough money spent, after all nobody goes hungry on a cruise ship. 

Hello 

Does anyone know what size the NY strip loin on the Kids menu in Chops is? 

I don't really want to upgrade my 11 year old to the adult menu if the steak on the kids is going to be big enough. 

Thanks 

Hello 

Just wondering how long it generally takes for uploaded vaccine certs to be verified? 

TIA

Hello, we are staying in Port Canaveral for 1 night prior to our cruise. I have two teenage boys and would love to take them somewhere to eat some gator. We are from Ireland so this would be a real novelty for them. 

Does anyone have any recommendations for the best place to find gator on the menu. 

Thanks 

Hello, we will be sailing on the Harmony in June and are wondering if there is any speculation that RCI will suspend pre cruise testing before then. 

We will be traveling from Ireland for this cruise and I am just trying to figure out the best option for us to get tested for the cruise if needs be. 

Thanks 

What date was the Epic supposed to do its Transatlantic to Europe ?

Hello

Are the small individual boxes of cereals available in the buffet at breakfast. 

My kids like to snack in these during the day, so thought it might be handy to grab a couple each morning before going ashore 

Thanks 

Looks like you had a great cruise. Did you do your own thing in each port. How crazy was the beach in grand turk? 

I will be takingy my first carnival cruise on the breeze in a couple of months time. Can someone advise on how else, along with alcholic drinks to best utilise the drinks package

Can I get bottles of water / vitamin water to take back to my room and ashore with me and can these be picked up from any bar? 

Where can you get shakes on the Breeze? 

I enjoy cappuccino and lattes, are these available and What about premium juices? 

Hoping someone has a list of how to max out with out going all alcohol 

Thanks

Okay, if it is a hassle to request more water to be poured, then politely request that the bottle be left on the table for self-serve purposes.

 

You can explain that you drink an extraordinary amount of water and do not want to 'hassle' them to get it as often as you want it, if in fact that is the case.

 

Of course the 'hassle' factor is all about how busy, which they usually are, in the dining venue in which you are eating.

 

Then again, from your comment, it is a matter of sharing your water moreso than having it available for you only based on the package. Thus, to me, it is not the hassle as opposed showing family and friends how great you are sharing your 'premium' water with those who do not have the right package for it.

 

Which is fine, to be sure, yet be clear(er) about the reason.

 

Also, if it were lunch time, then a bottle of water left on the table can be, somewhat, overlooked, dinner, most likely not.

 

cheers and bon voyage

Wow, How sad it is to see that someone can be so judgmental of others and especially those that they do not know. 

I should not have to justify myself to others, but for the record and the sake of clarity, I will be the one one with the lowest drinks package, the premium non alcohol. 

So whilst I am sitting there drinking "extraordinary amount of water" which is due to medial reasons, my wife will be enjoying her wine.

I can only hope that I don't have the pleasure of meeting with such miserable  individuals as yourself on our up and coming cruise. 

As they say in my neck of the woods, don't be a bell end all of your life

Thanks everyone 

I just don't like having to hassle an already busy waiter every time I want some extra water, but I guess its a nickel and dime decision that is made at corporate level. Heaven forbid if someone at the table drank some water that they are not supposed to. 

Thanks again 

Hey everyone 

This may seem like a silly question, but what happens at dinner when someone at your table orders what is classed as a premium bottled of water. Do they leave the bottle on the table or do they only pour it for those that have it covered on their drinks package before removing the bottle.

My wife and I have different drinks packaged and I don't want to have to ask for glass to be refilled every tine I want some more Evian or San Pellengrino poured 

Thanks
