Does that mean we will have 2 sets of keys, or can they just reissue new cards?
As noted by @canes20, only 2 of the 4 would need the extra cards. When my sister and I travel with our Mom, we both get the extra key cards to her room. She is hard of hearing, and we didn’t want to disturb the whole floor pounding on her door. The person to whose room an extra key is being requested will need to go to Customer Services with the person requesting the key card.

Is Onpoint accepted by Carnival?
Others have posted on here that they have used On Point with no issues. John Heald said several weeks ago that it was an acceptable proctored test site.

Thanks for the review.

John Heald posted earlier today that they were doing maintenance to the website and thus people might be having problems.

As @jsglow said, if your original test on July 8 was from a health care provider, or was proctored, then you would be within the “more than 10 day but less than 90 day” recovery period. In other words, you could provide the July 8 positive test as your document of recovery.

Is there a breakfast menu with cereals and muffins?
This is the door hanger menu from Carnival’s website. As recent guests have noted, while you have to call in the order to room service, this should give you an idea of the items offered for breakfast.

I did not know that. I only recently explored the possibilities with Fly2Fun. Some fares were cheaper, and some were higher. I always would book the flights myself. Thanks for pointing this out.
From Carnival’s website: (so apparently they still do this, even in a Covid world)
All Fly2Fun flights include flight protection!
Yes, for real!! If there’s any trouble with weather or flight delays that make you miss the ship, we’ll make sure you get the flights, hotels or transportation you need to make it to the ship. (Other services will charge you extra for this, so keep that in mind if you’re shopping!)

@urbanhawkIt’s my understanding that, pre-Covid, the cruise line would fly you to the first port to catch the cruise if you booked airfare through the cruise line.

From Carnival’s website:
Except where destination requirements differ*, guests who are up to date with their vaccines may take their test within three days prior to sailing.
Up to date means a guest has received all recommended COVID-19 vaccinations, including any booster dose, when eligible.
Example: For a sailing departing on Saturday, guests may take their test as early as Wednesday and as late as Saturday morning, if guaranteed to receive results in time for check-in.
If a guest is fully vaccinated but not up to date with their vaccines, they must take an antigen pre-cruise COVID-19 test within two days prior to sailing, or a PCR test within three days prior to sailing.
If you are eligible for a booster and have not received one, you are not considered up to date.
Example: For a sailing departing on Saturday, guests may take their antigen test no earlier than Thursday and as late as Saturday morning, if guaranteed to receive results in time for check-in. A PCR test may be taken no earlier than Wednesday prior to sailing.
So, while the booster is not required, having the booster allows the traveler to take the Covid test one day earlier than those who are not boosted.

Thanks for sharing your experience. So glad you all had a great time.

I enjoyed Lamanai, but I echo the comment about purchasing the excursion through Carnival. On our excursion, we didn’t have any issues such as mechanical breakdowns but got back to the ship more than an hour after sail away time. There were about 50 of us on several buses, so luckily the ship waited on us.
I did enjoy the provided lunch and the boat ride to the ruins.

If I bought Carnival's insurance, can I cancel and buy a more robust third-party plan?
You can only cancel Carnival’s insurance within 10 days of purchasing it according to Carnival’s website.

I always buy third party insurance as well since my traveling companion is elderly. In the unlikely event something happens, I want the most robust coverage as well as pre existing conditions covered. I think most insurance companies require that you purchase coverage within a set time (14 days?) to cover pre existing conditions.

I too would pick the Celebration for the itinerary.

Well, then, your doctor OR your pharmacist should be able to help.
I may be wrong, but I think you can only get a prescription for Paxlovid if you have tested positive for Covid.

Yep, booked on the December 11 cruise.

I have looked at those music theme cruises as well. When you figure what a single concert costs, that could be a really good value. Seems to me they are typically on the big 3, which is, of course, fine and dandy with us anyway.
I’ve been on three country music theme cruises, one on Norwegian in 1999 (my first cruise ever), one on Holland America in 2016, and one on Royal Caribbean in 2019. While they are costly, especially if you are a solo traveler, as you noted, if you consider what one concert costs, they are actually a pretty great value.

And in addition....I assume it's a one time $40....NOT $40 per $100.
Am I correct?
Yes, I had the $40.00 statement credit if spend $100 offer. I charged $306 and got a statement credit of $40.00.
-
I have the Chase Freedom card and I got the $40.00 offer.

My thoughts exactly, now to convince our travel mate.
The thought that I might be turned away at the port would be enough to convince me, but as the saying goes, your mileage may vary.

An article I read said that a birth certificate card is basically a receipt showing that the birth has been properly registered with the state and that the card does not constitute legal proof of identity.
I would think it safer to obtain a traditional birth certificate if possible.

I got a similar offer on my Chase Freedom credit card.

I deleted the email, but I am pretty sure that the email I got from Carnival regarding the new protocols said that they were in effect September 6 through December 31. But the email also noted that conditions could change at any moment.
