I have a Feb 2, 2020 cruise booked from Baltimore, not sure why they are not showing for 2021. My search shows open, maybe you selected a duration or destination that there are no itineraries for?

I was hoping to be able to send/receive texts also on my upcoming cruise and I have Verizon, am curious to see if anyone has a good answer!

We fell in love with Cove balconies on the Magic a few years ago in a cabin just 6 doors forward from yours.  We had no issues with noise or smells at all.  Great room!  We've also enjoyed a cove on Dream and are looking forward to our cove on Breeze next May.  As for those "funny" smells onboard... They can happen anywhere on any ship.  Enjoy your cruise!

Happy to see posts like this, my daughter and I have our first Cove balcony on the Dream in March and I wasn't sure about it as I usually am up on 7 or 8 with a standard balcony

The steakhouse bar usually has Blanton’s 

 

sorry misread the title.  I’ve never been on the valor but on my other cruises the SH bar carried it

This would be awesome, I hope they have it on my cruise on the Pride in February. Can't find it for much less than $15 a pour when I can actually find a place that has it. This may help make the Cheers package worth it for me!

Has anyone ever had an issue not receiving their gift cards? The last time we did this they offered Email delivery which was pretty close to instant. It makes me nervous to order 3000.00 worth of cards and have to wait for them to come in the mail. Just wondering what everyone else's experiences are. 

When I have ordered $400 worth, they have come in the regular mail fairly quickly. I ordered $2500 and $1500 and both came UPS requiring a signature. I wasn't home for one so it was sent to the nearest UPS store for me to pick up

Awesome thread, just signed up and racked up over 30k points in sign up bonus and promo codes. Thanks everyone!!

I keep seeing references to buying discounted gift cards but only see references to AARP or some insurance company and I don't belong to either. Are there other avenues I am missing out on that I might qualify for? 

As for the Cheers package, I'm still on the fence for our 7-day cruise in February. I'll be going with my two sisters and both seem to think it's a good idea. Part of me thinks 5-6 drinks a day isn't that much over the course of the whole day and the other part wonders if I would spend $429 if I drank how I wanted (alcoholic and non-alcoholic).  

123 days til our birthday cruise (me and my daughter) on the Dream

Or you can put more than 1 person in the same cabin on the same payment method.

I definitely recall my husband and I being on the same payment method for our cruise so wasn't sure if they could separate it per person if they share a room but it sounds like they can. Stress avoided! lol

You'll be able to complete your online check-in starting 90 days out from your sail date. Login in to your Carnival account, click on the "Planner" tab at the top, and it'll show you the date when you can complete your online check-in. That's when each of you can pick a payment method. Or if they didn't create accounts, you can assign their payment methods.

Thanks, I will probably have them create their own accounts then.

Yes. Each card gets its own payment method.

Thank you! 

I don't recall from my one and only cruise since the last one was with my husband. I'm going on a cruise with my two sisters and we'll all be in one room. Can each S&S card be tied to a different form of payment so I don't have to stress if my sisters make charges to them? I couldn't quite figure out if this was the case from the Carnival FAQs or not. I'm the primary and will disable charging to the card if needed but would rather them be able to manage their own charges how they prefer. 

Can't wait to sail on her Jan 4th any info/tips appreciated!

Me too!! It's my very first cruise as well. My little brother is getting married in Grand Cayman. I'm excited and totally freaked out about going on a cruise. Before my brother opted for a destination wedding, I vowed to never go on a cruise (ah... the old never say never adage applies for a reason!)

I wish I had found these BEFORE I booked our cruise but am happy to stock up to pay for other items and maybe another cruise!
