    I imagine so, all the companions can see each other's names in their cruise manager (and likely on the hub app once onboard as well).

    It's incredible how little traffic that venue gets, yet Carnival still keeps it.

    I reckon if you want to wait on hold be my guest. But you can invite cruise companions under Booking & Order Details on your cruise manager on Carnival.com.

    Yes nobody knows that is certainly true - but Ray Charles can look at the stock right now and tell it ain't going back up any time soon.

    So far yes, only Carnival, but have a Disney cruise coming up in October. For the longest time we didn't want to fly and Carnival's port in Charleston was an easy, affordable way for us to cruise and we loved the product so had no need to venture out to try other lines.

    She is a relic of a bygone era of cruising but you will have a great time. She's one of the oldest cruise ships afloat right now so temper any expectations you may have. We've been on newer ships but my wife and I often get off a cruise and say "we had a great time but we'd just as soon have been on Ecstasy"

    Yes, they're building a private resort (like Amber Cove I'd assume, or Princess Cays) on Grand Bahama Island near Freeport.

    I just used medivac as an example of "this is too expensive for me to self insure" That dollar amount is different for everybody. Some people may need insurance for an unexpected $1200 doctor bill in Nassau. I could absorb that without needing insurance. Everyone has their own comfort level.

    It's called an emergency fund. I don't bother insuring for a $500 emergency. Now if I did need to be medivac'ed off a ship, that's something that I'd need insurance for obviously.

    Pay for the care with all the money you've saved by not taking out travel insurance all these years, would be one way to handle it.

    More like 100%+ but not really a problem, cruise ships are designed to sail full.

    Boats fit on ships, the boats on Carnival ships are typically only used for emergencies.
  13. mz-s
    no room for anything like that on the boats anyway

    Buy on the way up, not the way down.

    There are no dress code rules on Carnival anymore, except in the steakhouse. That's the only place they enforce them. The Ecstasy doesn't have a steakhouse. Any bar on Ecstasy can make an old fashioned or grey goose cosmo.

    I would be very nervous about relying on connecting flights to get me to my cruise on time. But I have flown in the morning of a cruise several times with no issue. It's all up to everyone's individual comfort level.

    You used to get a discount for buying a bucket. $7.50 each is not a discount at all. Maybe they rang it up wrong? Or maybe the bucket discount is gone.

    Does the flight you originally booked even exist anymore? It is possible that Southwest cancelled it and Carnival had to book you the next best choice. I hope you understand that Carnival doesn't control Southwest's schedules, all they can do is react to the schedule.

    Carnival is discounting as necessary to get as many people onboard as they can. They've been sailing full for months now.
  20. mz-s
    I have never heard of that website before your post. If you listen to them and not Carnival, you will be watching the ship sail away from the pier.

    I don't think there is a set in stone formula to get casino offers. A lot of it is random to an extent I think.

    The drink is included in Cheers but the souvenir glass is not. You will need to pay for the glass.

    If Carnival isn't saying there's no way anyone on here will know.

    Wilmington, NC is another city that has hosted cruise ships occasionally and could conceivably be an option for Carnival with some upgrades and a new facility as long as they place the terminal on the ocean side of the Cape Fear memorial bridge.
  25. mz-s
    It depends on where the cruise terminal would be located in Savannah, which side of the bridge. If the ship has to go under the Talmadge bridge, they'd have the same issues as the Ravenel bridge in Charleston since they both have the same clearance of 185 feet.
