That's only if you both were under the same S&S account. It is possible to set up a room so that each adult in the room has a separate S&S account. In that case I believe the two would split the OBC and there's no way to combine it.

I have heard on this forum that you can just go to the kiosk machine and get out cash, no fees no muss no fuss. Have not tried however.

"New money"

Strangely they were able to notify cruisers specifically that Cucina, Jiji's, and Chef's Table would be closed. But they were unable to extend the same courtesy to notify guests that afternoon tea was gone, pizza pirate would be understaffed and close early, the deli would be understaffed and close early, late night snacks would morph into nothing more than a tray of Stouffer's lasagna at the pizza counter, etc.

Are you suggesting that guests should go outside if the inside is too hot, or are you saying Carnival's engineers don't know how to properly design an HVAC system to take into account the fact that doors exist?

You get a 10% discount if you purchase it before the cruise. Other than that, I have never seen a sale. There were some folks who got "Cheers Included" cruise offers but those seem to be gone and I haven't seen them coming back.

I saw that on Sunshine in the Lido restaurant. They were saving an entire row of tables so their group could play cards. It was during a slow time between meal service so I didn't say anything to them. Had I seen them during the lunch or dinner rush it would have been a different story. I can't help but think if people need these things reserved for their exclusive use they should hire a yacht for their vacations like the folks do on Below Deck.

Carnival Corp's new motto: "A bad day at sea is better than a good day in the office"

Simple really, if there's just a towel rolled up in the middle of the chair - high likelihood that towel has been there unattended for hours. I really should be charging for these simple cruising hacks.

Apparently so, they didn't pay extra for expedited shipping either

I am active in the CCL board but peruse the others. This is the first time I've heard multiple cruisers corroborate crew shouting, being rude, and even grabbing children. Please feel free to link me to an NCL thread with a similar complaint.

Irrelevant to carnivals situation. They have access to a nearly unlimited supply of workers from the third world.

They added a banner to the top of Carnival.com when Cucina closed. No such announcement or mention was made for Pizza. The only way people would know before their cruise is if they read it on here.

I'm not suing them, I'm just not going on another Carnival cruise until they bring their standard of service back to where it was before COVID. "I'm just happy to be cruising again" isn't enough for me at this point.

Carnival shouldn't be advertising something on their website that they have no intention of delivering. https://www.carnival.com/cruise-food/pizza-pirate

It is absolutely underhanded and frankly disgusting that they made this big announcement championing the end of testing for most of their cruises and emailed out everybody, then the next day in secret updated their website to say it actually doesn't apply to their #1 destination.

For my wife and I they're just extra towels at this point - especially since we no longer get twice daily service!

I feel like that's most of Carnival's cruises, other than some of the Cozumel and Mexican Riviera routes. Goodness so the announcement the other day has really been watered down. Sneaky on Carnival's part - make an announcement out in public and then walk back most of it's power a few days later in quiet.

Nowhere does Carnival say the test has to be done 72 hours before the cruise.

Sort of like asking for no pickles on your Whopper, special requests can actually slow things down. You are the guest so whatever you want they can accommodate, but don't make the request just because you think it saves them time.

Carnival is still advertising 24/7 pizza on their website. Most of people's complaint with pizza is that is now the only thing available after 10/11 PM these days.

A lot of it is if you go when school is out and people who have never been around civilized society go on a cruise.

It may not happen any time soon, may not ever happen, but the point is it's possible.

Which for a ship that accommodates 6000 guests is unacceptable in my opinion.

I'm sure it will be very nice. I actually don't mind stopping in Nassau frankly. Maybe I'm one of the few. The whole point of this port is the ships can practically blow over from Florida. There are already other ports in the Caribbean if you want something different - Amber Cove, Grand Turk, etc...
