Transatlantic has been on our bucket list for years! Virgin Voyages also on bucket list. Love NCL and have missed them (haven't cruised with them since before covid). Virgin is Oct 29, 14 nights, NCL Nov 20, 11 nights (actually already booked on Prima). Is the weather in Spain that much better in Oct vs Nov? I'm so tempted to switch to Virgin...... 

Thoughts? 

Looking to book a specific date, my vifp number doesn't show a fare with cheers(ru2) included . I know its there for some, I just helped someone book it. Is it because I currently have a booking including cheers for another sailing? 

Thank you for any insight you may have to offer, cheers!

I was really hoping someone could give some suggestions for this.  This is also what we would like to do on our cruise.

Can anyone confirm that Dollar has a shuttle from port to airport?

Thanks much!

Wondering if Celebrity would test us for our Carnival cruise that we are embarking on when we disembark the Edge? 

Apologies if this has already been asked. If you are not able to go on your July cruised, based on the vaccine announcement,  were you offered a full refund? Or are your funds being held for a future cruise?

This is good news. My future credit no longer shows in my account,  which I read on another thread, can be a sign of the refund finally coming. 

Good to know. I was hoping this is possible,  as I'm booked on the first Glory sailing in September. 

I plan to do just that. But really want it all confirmed before I board, as if I were to lose, I prefer to pay the pre boarding prices.

Just know that the only (small) downside is if the cruise is cancelled, you cannot get an actual refund, it will be gc.  We used them for our march cruise that got cancelled and would have liked to have just got a refund, but it made no sense, as we would have just got gc, so we went for the fcc/obc.  Not a big deal if you know you will be going on a carnival ship at some point.  Most times I would be happy with with using them, and it does not stop be from buying more (if I needed them).

Yeah, I thought about this.... not sure what to do now. 

Thank you!!!! I finally figured it all out. I have 2 cruises booked and am excited to save a little bit of $$$.

I just recently started using the Allstate drivewise, I don't understand where I need to use the code to claim the points.

TIA

While I'm glad they are finally taking a NCL approach to alcohol pricing and packages, it funny how much more the FREE DRINKS room costs and, like NCL, the kicker will be when you book. You'll see an additional $250-$300 in Gratuities pop up which will make the room cost almost par with the bubbles package.

Nope, gratuities were included. 

It's not in the offers. You have to follow thru as if booking a cruise . Once you've messed a choice on cabin type,  it Weil be in the list of available  fares.

It appears to be about a 25% savings off the price of the drink package.

Found it. Use your VFP number in your search (Carnival site), once you've made your cabin type selection,  "view more" for all of the available  fares.

I'm not seeing this offer. It's it caribbean? Balcony?

TIA

Maybe it will be just a few weeks...... still hopeful.

I am also concerned about the status of the Mardi Gras. We are booked for the New Years cruise. It seems strange that they are showing no cruises until March 2021 when you search for sailings.  Hope the cruises Nov. - Feb. are sold out and the ship will be ready to cruise this year (since it's already been delayed from the original launch date). Since it's still some months away Carnival may be holding back on taking more reservations until they are sure when the ship will be ready.

My exact feelings too.

The last few times that I checked , the first sailing still bookable has been March 27th .

My guess that there is uncertainty that the ship will be ready to accommodate the sailings before that so they may be holding back their availability ? 🤔

We are booked on the Dec 04th sailing .😕

This is exactly what I'm thinking/hoping.  They are being cautious 🤗

Good morning,  I just noticed my booking info says "do not  change " next to my cabin information.  How do I change this to an option of "I'm just fine with a change"?

TIA,

Im booked on the Jan 2 sailing, as I always do when i've got a cruise booked, I went to website I booked from (this time that would be Carnival) and I CANNOT find any sailings on Mardi Gras for January and February?  I hope its as simple as they are changing the itineraries and not cancelling the sailings?

Good morning!  We are booked on Escape January 2020.  This is our first cruise as platinum and I have a few questions, if I may?

Do I need to book my dinners on board?  Or can I book using the planner and it will automatically carry over as a platinum perk?

Laundry?  What is the last day I can send out our free bag of laundry?  I understand it is one bag for each of us? I thought at one time I saw some info about writing something on the bag/paperwork to ensure it is well known as a free bag of laundry, what should I say?

TIA,

Robin
