    I didn’t see any subtitled screenings when we were onboard. There are films on the TVs in the room (often the same as in the cinema) and if I recall CC/subtitles are an option (as to their quality I can’t comment as we managed ok without them).

     

    you can contact accessibility@carnivalukgroup.com and they may be able to advise.

    Thank you for your help and I will contact accessibility about subtitles/cc and hopeful they will provides us subtitles at cinema

    Will be sightseeing Stavanger on our own in early May.  Enjoy local foods. Any suggestions for lunch or pastry/coffee stop near the port?

    17th May shop will be closed as their bank holiday so restaurant is available but must book table.  

     

    I don't know if coffeeshop will be opening ? 

  3. Three of us are deaf.  My daughter booked Royal Caribbean of Anthem of the Seas next year May 

     

    My daughter applied ASL Interpreter for our cruise.  She got reply that Royal Caribbean won’t provides us ASL interpreter because we are cruising in UK 

     

    What  wrong with BSL Interpreters?    Why we are not get any interpreters 🤔

  4. My husband and I had the deluxe Beverage Package at Sypmhony of the Seas on Oct 2019.  It was good.

     

    Next cruise is Anthem of the Seas, we are going to Norweign Fjords with our son and daughter.  We all are adults.

     

    Problem is my son is not drinking beer at all and he is disabled as he have dyparaxia  He won't touch drinks.  We are trying to book it for 3 of us apart from my son as he just want soda package.  But RC still charge us 4 x of Deluxe Beverage Package Question which we want just 3 of us.

     

    How to clarified it?  Do he go to his doctor to get proof certificate?

     

    I would be appreciated if you can help us?

     

    Thank you

  5. Hello

     

    One of an interpreter is Arron if I am correct his name.  My husband and I are from Scotland and we went along with the deaf group and there were total of 270, 26 peoples from Norway, 26 interpreters and rest from USA, Canada.  We are only two from UK.   We all had the fun and lovely times in Halloween Party too.  They booked private room then we went along to join in Halloween as it was a great times.

    At the theater. Of course the signer is here. Kind of surprised he's on stage since only about 4 of the 400 or so deaf cruisers are here.

    Gotta run, time for lunch

     

  7. Few weeks ago I spotted 42 dollars and I grab it but trouble that I am from UK and exchange money was lower so still expensive for us as it cost around 600.00 pounds for a week for two of us.   I am not sure if it is worthing as i paid for it but i keep looking and now down to 49 dollars.  I am waiting for lower price I don't think so as my cruise will be in 46 days now

    FYI. We always do Paradise Beach Club on our own. I don’t know what you are paying through Trip Advisor but here’s a break down of doing it on our own . . .

    $15 taxi each way (up to 6 in the taxi)

    $3.00 per person entrance fee

    they ask each person spend $10 on food/drinks. 

    We paid all inclusive pass day apart from taxi

    We stayed on the 14th deck on Allure and only heard noises a few time during the week and it was always when we were in the room in the afternoon. We enjoyed being so close to the pool deck so much that we booked the Symphony for the 14th deck as well. Enjoy the cruise

    We booked Symphony of the Seas and received 14th deck and never had higher   I am bit nervous about it as I always had 6th deck, first time higher ... Hope I enjoy it and it is oceanview balcony .

    Of course Disney would win😊 Its Disney for goodness sake. The problem with Disney is that you can take about 2 RCI cruises for one of theirs. They are a tad expensive! Enjoying your review and pictures.

    Yes, I loved Disney Cruise as 5 times nowadays it is too expensive since 2014 last we went for 14 nights.   I asked my two kids which one Disney or RC Freedom of the Seas.. they said both and they said RC was best swimming pool but they love both but Kids club was not good with my deaf daughter and they don't know what to do and hand her paper with pencil.  my daughter have an cochlear implant and she can speak she feel negative with them.  Disney was awesome with her.  Anyway, My husband and I are going on this cruise in Oct and I am reading your feed back and its helpful and I enjoyed read it 

     

    what a beautiful photos too

    We enjoyed our time at Paradise beach.  They do all inclusive packages now if you are into that.  We just paid the $3 last time to get in.  And ordered individual drinks and food.  They are reasonably priced and the food was delicious.  They have a nice large pool with shallow ledges around it for loungers.   

    do I purchase inclusive package better than 3 dollars to get in and do the beach is beautiful ? 

    I am nervous to do own excursion and I am thinking to book it ourselves and hope taxi is straightforward for us as we are deaf and how to communication to taxi, do I show the name of Paradise Beach?  Do taxi understand english words? or I have to translate to Mexico words?  I know daft question 

     

    Are there plenty taxi for return back to cruise port?

    Day 5 – Cozumel

    Temp – 81 degrees and windy, overcast

    Excursion – El Cozumeleno Resort Beach Break

    Money Spent - $40 taxis, $15 tips, $12 in-room movie rental, $80 excursion ($55 adult, $25 child)

     

    We were a little late with de-embarkation this morning; it was closer to 7:50a than 7:30a. We took our time; Jelly had some leftover dessert for breakfast, and I grabbed Park Café (I was still a little woozy and not up to WJ). I had never been to PC for breakfast, and was surprised to find they had oatmeal, bagels, and almond croissants. No fresh juice, alas.

    We left the ship around 8:30a to discover that the taxi queue was MUCH better than the last time we were in port; there was no wait at all. Hmmm, maybe because we got off the ship a little later? The last time we had to walk up the street a few blocks to a nearby hotel and catch a cab from those waiting there.

    This was our third time visiting El Cozumeleno Resort, and I was unhappy to find a number of changes in store for us. First of all, the guy working the front desk gave me a really hard time about being there early (9a ship time, 8a local time), and made us wait an hour in the lobby before he would check us in and give us our armbands. I have never had an issue with this before. I had booked through Island Marketing, which I’ve used before and really like; it’s actually a little cheaper than booking directly through the resort, and much easier. Note that the hotel would only give me pesos for change, and the taxi driver wanted US dollar bills and hassled me a bit. Grr!

    So, we sat and waited an hour, and by the time we got outside all the chairs had been taken. Luckily a nice guy from Pickering saw my Canada t-shirt and gave us one of theirs. Shade, yes!

    The beach area had changed quite a bit in two years; the shore coral was almost entirely gone, either from weather or tourists. This meant there were nowhere near as many fish to see, or as many varieties. There were still some interesting critters hanging out around the lava rock (there was a little crab, and lots of spiny urchins).IMG_9362c.JPG

     

    The drinks weren’t as good this trip either; they’re using some sort of drink mix with a really artificial-tasting sweetener. Even Jelly noticed it in her kiddie cocktails. Our second breakfast was pretty good, but we got there at the tail end. First lunch was blah. Second lunch was good. Our server, Gabriela, was great. We were back in port around 3p, and I didn’t feel like fighting the crowds for tequila or vanilla, so we were back on the ship by 3:30p. All aboard was 5:30p.

    We went back to the room and I promptly fell asleep. We went to the MDR at 6:30p instead of our 6p MTD reservation time and it was the only time we had to wait for a table, about 15 minutes. I started with the beet and orange salad, which had sounded good but was lacking dressing (a nice light poppy seed would’ve been perfect). We shared the coconut shrimp, which was delicious. Jelly had chicken fingers and I had the turkey dinner entrée and didn’t like it. There were two desserts that I could eat that sounded good – the banana bread pudding and pavlova. DELICIOUS. I remembered liking their little baby pavlovas on previous ships.

    We had a reservation for ‘Flight’ but missed it; it was PJ night at the kid’s club, and Jelly was planning to go, but we both decided to stay in the room and rent ‘Crimes of Grindewald’ since we hadn’t seen it yet, and it was Jelly’s turn to be sunburned and sore. I heard later that ‘Hiro’ had to be rescheduled due to wind that night.
