Will be just like this...  Good comments and more pics in thread.. 

Thank you!!

Does anyone here have a photo of the night time setup of a Mini Suite for 4 passengers?  We will be on the Crown Princess for the Thanksgiving cruise in November and are wanting to see what the sleeping arrangements are.

Thank you

Confused by something here.  Miracle is supposed to be in Dry Dock till November 16th, with Radiance taking over Miracle's sailings, but Radiance sailings have been cancelled till October 28th only.  Which ship takes over Radiance's current November sailings?

I have heard that it will take 30 days to get the ships staffed, trained, and to their home ports so it will be close...

Hey Ombud.  I think you mean the Carnival Miracle?  At any rate, definitely more kids on Carnival, especially going to Mexico vs Alaska.  Our family has been on Ruby, and loved it (kids were 15, 13, 9 and 7) and prefer Princess's kids club to Carnival's.  Also Princess has fresh water pools that are warmer than Carnival's salt water cold pools.  

Carnival has water slides and an arcade along with the kids club, if it helps

Check this topic out...   

 

Thank you, but this post is about one parent traveling with children.  I have my spouse with me, but traveling with my daughter's friends.  I did read the post though

Cheers

Hi.  We are cruising on Carnival with our daughter and she is bringing a couple friends.  I had heard that we need to have a letter from the friend's parents, but I cannot find anything official on Carnival or the web.  Has anyone here experienced this before?

Thanks Webzila, that is definitely a bummer.  Would be cool to enjoy the night time in this port

Can anyone let me know if the ship stays in Cabo overnight when it is in port for two days?  And if it does, can one get on and off via tender all night?  The itinerary isn't clear.

Thanks in advance!

Hi all.  Sorry if this has been a topic before, but we are cruising in April on the Miracle out of San Francisco, and I have a vegan daughter going on the trip with us.  Are there many vegan options for her other than fruit and salads?  I have heard about a vegan patty at the grill, but I haven't seen it on menu's when doing a google search.

Thank you!

We have stayed at the Hotel Maya three times for cruises from both Long Beach and San Pedro, they have a cruise and stay package that includes parking for the week and transportation to the terminal.  But usually we walk the 15 minutes it takes to get from the hotel to the Long Beach terminal.  And its a beautiful hotel with water views that allow you to see your ship come in in the AM

Hotel Maya.  They do a Park n Cruise package, and its a 10 minute walk from the hotel to the ship, or they will drive you in their van.  Water front, with a beach vibe and great pool.

Thanks. We're thinking about it!

 

Question about Cabo itself...how was the local atmosphere?  I haven't been there in over 20 years.  It's changed I'm sure but are there still people hawking things with your every turn?  

Atmosphere was fine.  Certainly the usual hawkers, but nothing extraordinary.  Cabo has changed a ton over the last 20 years, much more built up and commercial than it used to be.  We were amazed by all the million dollar yachts parked in the harbor.

Beautiful! Thank you for posting.  First Princess cruise for us so we're super excited.  Happy Holidays!

I highly recommend dinner at Share one night.  Best meal i have ever had on a cruise!

Sorry i don't have photos of the Patter, we didn't read it actually.  But i do have photos of the MDR menu from one of the nights, and a nice sunrise picture.

We did this sailing, was amazing.  Great service, loved being in Cabo for 24 hours rather than the usual 8 (especially with tendering), and the ship was in great shape.  Overall one of our best cruises, and we have been on 8

Just off the ship and the TVs were flat screens mounted to the top of the shelf/desk area
