Sorry man..I get it..you really need to get on asap..

This Is my 6th Carnival cruise and this is without a doubt a tremendous step up in all phases. We could not be happier. Although this is a cruise with well over 6k passengers the ship is manageable. I felt way more crowded in the dream class.. Positives..our spa suite 17293 is perfection. Although a bit narrow, It's extremely long..when the curtain divider is pulled its like a 2 room suite. The deck is rounded and sits out from the others. We also have a private elevator directly to deck 5 and the spa.. It's also just one deck above the lido and 1 deck below serenity. You can move throughout the ship swiftly. The lido marketplace design just is a huge upgrade..the food stations keeo it moving. It's also just very nice and spacious. Always a table. Summer landing is awesome. Lots of choices to spread people out. Negatives.. Maybe elevators..we have waited longer than any other ship..the auto touch bathroom doors seem to stay open a solid 14 seconds.. A couple times women looked directly in the men's locker room..I would bet my life more than a few women have seen men n their full glory..fortunately for me I'm no costanza. Nothing else comes to mind except for a minority of the people in general.. We cannot wait to sail this again in a few years. We have another ship booked next dec and it's not gonna be this..

I will say the line at 9 am was significantly longer than when we arrived at 8:30... It pays dividends to have a 9:30 boarding time..

Arrived at 8:30 and have been in the captains lounge since 9:20 20 min from time doors opened out front to the lounge area

Smooth as silk...already in line...these people have it down to a science..

Ty!!

7 min via uber from the port. My question is this. If our check In time is at 9:30 a.m. when should we get an uber pick up at the hotel? We have a car scheduled for 8:30.. With thousands upon thousands boarding and getting off we don't want to be backed up.

Hence why I said next weekend and not this weekend.

I have done a cruise over Superbowl Sunday and its a blast but i thought id mention a few things that people will probably be asking.. 1. The game is going to be shown in mutliple spots. Pool big screen, various lounges, casino etc. On Excel Ships a good spot will be Summer Landing/Heroes Bar. 2. Dont expect to have some kind of buffet with wings, nachos,etc. its possible but not likely. Of course, if you are in a bar that sells food for an upcharge then thats what you do. 3. You definitely can send a "runner" to the lido or wherever to get food and bring back. I person at least needs to stay behind or your seat is gone. 4. If a good seat is something you desire, find out where you want to watch and park it. I believe people started gathering at 2:30. Once seated you can alternate with others to go do stuff if you dont want to be locked in front of a tv for 7 hours straight. If anyone else has anything to add please do..

I'm with ya...not sure if I could cruise alone...every time I go to to the breakfast buffet alone my drink and knife is pushed to the side and people are at my spot.

I don't care about the money just wondered how good it was.

Would love a large order of fish n chips..

Cool beans..go gamecocks..beat mizzou!!

For Feb 11 celebration..I'll take.it but don't recall ever getting one that early..

Can u be specific please about the football watching area? The ship is big.

Wee Jimmy saying b farty nine

Suites are ready when we get on. Always have been. That's a perk. And I'll think about your other suggestion..

A good time to arrive if you are in a suite with a 10:30 check in? My last cruise in Norfolk we sat around alot until we boarded at 10:50..

If we book the world resorts excursion, can we eat lunch at the beach club or do we have to eat at the resort restaurant? Can we go straight to the beach club or we have to stop in the hotel first? I'm going in July. Thanks You most definitely can eat right at the beach club..its 150 feet to the left of the pool as u face the acean.. Go at 11 sharp and u will have the pick of seats..I'll try and post a few pics..

Everything about this screams stupidity. Saying that I'm wondering where his balcony room was. I know that ship well and i dont see how you can fall in the water from deck 6 or higher...deck 5 has an outdoor walkway that surrounds the ship and should catch anyone falling over.. I would think youd half to literally spring dive off the railing to make it into the ocean..I'm thinking he had a cove balcony...you are going in the water from that deck..

I said there are no real benefits. I didn't say there were benefits.

I just was there 5 days ago.. It is looking great. Major improvent. Like light years better.

We kept them for nostalgia but the app is crazy good.
