Have you tried it on a S2S?  Unless they take the second set, there is nothing preventing you from consuming all 4 then get two more.  I think they ignore that on B2Bs and assume you aren't getting off in between to restock.

I am doing a side to side in August/September.   Has anyone tried this at Canaveral????  I had planned on ubering to the Publix and getting more wine but if I didn't have to that would be great.

Any more tips?  Taking grandkids on this next week?  How crowded was the buffet? What did you do in Cozumel?

 

We love Mr Sanchos in Cozumel.   YOu need to book in advance as it typically sells out.  They have a great kids play area and the price is great for what you get.

They are good rooms and that's a good location. Close the curtains at night, and take a clip to hold them together. People will be able to see directly into your room at night. 

Smart thinking on the clip.  I will add it to my packing list.  Thanks

I don't know put Cozumel is the best port for runner!!!!

Nassau isn't bad either.  MY kids had a blast yelling at pier runners when we were on the Liberty in March.   

It wasn't for us.  We booked an excursion through https://unexso.com/  and had a fabulous time.  They picked us up at the port and took us to their office.  We did the excursion they let us wander around for a bit after the excursion and took us back to the ship.  You really should have an excursion there as there isn't really much of anything near the port.    

Thanks everyone I am super excited just 53 more days!!!

I have had one of these cabins twice on the Liberty on the empress deck. We really liked the location and the secret deck. If it is windy its a little hard to open and close the door but besides that it was great.  Ours had a window that the curtains had to be closed at night.Liberty so far is one of our favorite ships.

The Liberty is my favorite ship too.  This will be my 4th time sailing on her.    Were gonna get off the Liberty and get on the Elation on the same day.    So excited.   

My mom and I booked a 3 night on the Liberty and we got the 4j all the way forward on the lido deck.  It is an interior with a window out to a secret deck.   Have you stayed in one of these cabins?  What has your experience been like?  Do you like this type of cabin????  

Your pictures are amazing.  Your review is fabulous too.  What camera are you using?

Hi.   Well we went and did it.  We booked a side to side.  The Liberty for a short 3 night and then jumping on the Elation for a 5 night.  Both leaving from Canaveral.  Has anyone done this?  How was it?  Any tips and tricks.  I don't think I will even unpack for the 3 night.   I think once we get off Liberty I will get an Uber to take us to get wine and softdrinks for the second cruise then bring us back to the port.   

I love the Nike Comfort Flip Flops.  I have never once come close to slipping in them.   So comfortable and a little bit of style.

If you have long or thick hair you may want to bring your own hair dryer.   The ones they have arent very good.   

Hi.  My mom and I are sailing to Amber Cove in September.   She has issues with walking far distances .  I have never been to this port before.  We are interested in possibly a relaxing beach day that is all inclusive.   Does anyone have any suggestions.  We are traveling on Carnival so even one of their excursions would do.    

Thanks in Advance.

 My wife and I always get inside staterooms on Carnival ships. Cozy. Dark. Cool. We sleep so well. And we are only there to sleep and shower. Otherwise, we are out and about.

 

What I don't understand are people who spend a lot of time in their stateroom.

 

On our last cruise, there was a family who never seemed to leave their room (they were across from us in a balcony stateroom). They had hooked up a PlaySegaThingy to the TV and the kids played games all day. Plates piled up outside the stateroom door.

 

Why come on a cruise at all if that's what you are going to do?

Food for thought-------I have found that when I cruise with my children I spend quite a bit more time in my stateroom.   They get tired and want a snack and its after 3 PM but before dinner hour.  We would order room service.  Thus lots of plates outside our door.    They get tired or cranky and we go there to collect ourselves.  They finish an activity in the kids club and we need to regroup we go there.    Last cruise my daughter got sick and we spent a whole day in there.   (Not my idea of fun).   I don't understand the playstation thing, but I let my children bring their tablets with their favorite shows so they would have something to do in the room.   

  Now when I cruise without my children I am never in there except to sleep.

Old Ppl and Math don't work so well, some mornings...

LOL.  Time for more coffee.    

Just sailed with my 6 and 9 year olds.  I put 50 $ on their cards and they had fun in the arcade.  I told them that was it though.  I put everything else for them on my card. 

Thanks everyone.   I am looking forward to it.  It is going to 2 ports I have never been to before so that makes it more exciting. 

Hi.  I am wondering about the Elation?  I have sailed on the Sensation and loved that ship. It looks like Elation is the same class of ship.    For those that have sailed on her what are your thoughts?  How is the Casino?  Are there enough deck chairs?  I just got off the Liberty for the third time last week and love the Liberty.   Anyone want to share any feedback on Elation that would be great.  

Thanks,

Jennifer 

I heard it was electrical and to do with the elevators.  I am leaving on the Liberty on Sunday.  SO I hope it is all cleared up by then. 

Thanks for the feed back.  We are so excited only 16 days

One thing I suggest is before you go to dinner order a drink from a bar and carry it in with you.  Drink service in the dining room can be a little slow.   Then order the drink for with your meal when they come around.  But to answer your question they are included with Cheers.   They will bring you a wine list and there is typically a drink of the day on the  menu.

We are sailing next Month.  My mother has vascular issues and can't stand for long period of times.  I know Carnival will accommodate her possibly by letting her go to the theater during muster drill.   But who do I need to notify of her condition?   Has anyone had to ask for special accommodations during muster drill before?  Will she need a note from her doctor?   Any insight would be greatly appreciated.   We are sailing on the Liberty if that makes any difference.

Wait....if you boarded today in Miami it is only 1pm eastern....you haven't even left port yet.

 

 

The Sensation is Currently in Key West.  OP must have posted yesterday and it must have sent their post once they got service again in Key West. 

Give it  chance.   Wow.   It's the first day everyone is excited.  I like the Sensation she is a good smaller ship.   There are some quiet places on the lido near aft that are very much in the shade.
