I personally will be parking so I need to go to the cedar Grove lot.. The official directions say even if dropped off you must go to the parking lot. Whatever works for you. I believe nauticus is in a tiny congested area and that is why they direct people to the lot. We check in at 10 am with priority boarding so we will arrive at the lot at 830 and expect to be onboard by 11 am.

Everyone who goes on the magic has to go the the cedar grove lot and either be dropped off or park. Absolutely cannot be dropped off at the terminal. the lot is 3 miles from the terminal. that is where the porters check your bags and where you get on the shuttle for the terminal. You need to park first and roll your bags to the area where the porters and buses are. if someone is handicapped i suggest dropping them off along with the bags first and then going to park. buses start running at 8..

i would say that would be a "yes"..we are on the magic next week and have a suite. we just received an email stating that we can access our room immediately upon boarding. i am going straight to my room and expect to be able to get in.

Does ocean plaza still serve breakfast? Last time I went that was where I chose to eat. Very quiet. Had all the basics.

Oh boy..From now on you are to be officially known as "Captain Obvious". Of course there are no true "secrets". But we all understand the true spirit of what is being asked. I gave mine above. I know it's no secret but it sure seems so since I seem to be the only one enjoying the experience.. But again captain, you are right.

There is definitely more than 1 shower. My cruise is 1 month out..I'm ready to go..

Secret tip.....The cloud 9 spa has fabulously large tiled showers, large sinks, lockers, towels and hairdryers for use by everyone onboard. I used them all week and let my wife have the bathroom to herself. I felt like a king. She thought I was nuts until I showed her the pics. The forward elevators go directly to the spa..deck 12. I could be there in 2 minutes even though my room was on deck 3.. We booked a spa suite on our May cruise to enjoy that area more.

my wife and i can reserve our boarding time 16 days out since we are suite guests. we are traveling about 2 hours to our port. if i check in at midnight what time should i expect to board?

thanks to you both. now i definitely know what i am doing on bimini.

No way I'd go to a place with. bathrooms.

Different than the bimini beach club that virgin owns? I see conflicting videos showing the same place for both and others with different amenities.. I also read where virgin accepts guests from other cruise ships to use bimini beach club if a virgin ship isn't in port the particular day another cruiseline is docked. From what I can see of the virgin owned beach club I would rather go there if possible..it's very nice. And carnival has an official excursion to resorts world but I'm wondering if that is actually bimini beach club.

Beach club owned by virgin a separate place altogether than resorts world bimini? I see some videos for resorts world that seem to show bimini beach club by virgin and then other videos that show a separate place.

Days prior to sailing..we are sailing may 14th on the magic. The hub app says we can check in Feb 13th.. I expected the window to open around may 1st..

Carnival is doing something wrong with the excel class because a vast majority don't like it. Compare that to rci where people prefer oasis class ships..this is an indictment on Carnival. They need to build a better big ship..

Catch up to the individual cruiser in terms of costs? Cruiselines have a business model predicated on reasonable fuel costs and its getting out of hand.

Well, it's drydocked. You obviously are not correct...but I give u points for trying..

Google is your friend.

Damn..and I think $70 is terrible for my camry

I'm still not clear as to which sailing this was on since nobody has ever put a time.. Was this the sailing that was just over yesterday morning or the cruise that returned back last saturday?

But for a cruise stop? I think not.

We booked the celebration in a spa suite for $3850 a week. Then we received a 50% discount offer and was able to cut that down to $1900. We took that savings and booked a second week on the magic in an ocean suite for exactly $1900. we are happy with that deal. 2 weeks in suite accommodations for $3850..

Excel..muted surroundings, updated rooms and choices choices choices..

Norfolk is horrible. I lived near there for 3 years. That is a horrible stop.. Jamestown and Williamsburg would be decent. Va Beach is a joke..

Enchantment ship was old, worn and boring.

I thought so..the earlier u go the better.
