Hello! I will be on Meraviglia sailing in June and will be visiting Ocean Cay for first time. So excited!! I am looking at two potential excursions but needs some help.. has anyone done one or both excursions below? 1. Shipwreck Snorkeling Getaway 2. Ocean cay Bahama breeze escape what is the difference between the two?? it appears that they also let you swim on bahama breeze tour - i guess only real difference is the spot of swimming/snorkeling?? which excursion have better/cleaner boat? Lastly, we will be docked from 9am-9pm and both excursions is about 2 hours long - what time does excursion start usually?? Thank you!!

Have you all seen children under 12 for Rock Circus or House of Houdini? I am not sure if the show is for all ages will kids under 12 enjoy the show in your opinion? Or is it even appropriate for kids? thanks!!

Hello fellow cruisers! I am on 6/16/2024 cruise - non YC :) This will be my first ever MSC cruise after many cruises on Royal and Carnival! i am excited!!!!!! I did some research but still need some help with several questions… please please help. 1. I purchased Easy Plus package and it says premium coffees are included such as latter and cappuccino.. question is WHERE can I get these coffees? Which bars have espresso machines? I heard that Jean Phillip cafe charges you even if you have easy plus package.. is that true?? 2. what do YOU think is the least crowded bar? I guess it depends on the time but please share your experience 3. how does Doremi junior club works? My son is 10 years old. Can he check in and out himself anytime he wants? Do I need to register him on first day? 4. Currently MSC for me App shows 4 broadway theater shows - Journey, Live from, Future of Magic, comedy show Daran Howard and says reservations are necessary for these shows. Again - How do I make reservations? Can I make reservations prior to get on board? 5. when and How I can I make reservations for Houdini show and Rock circus show?

Hello! I am getting so excited as I will be onboard Carnival Magic in 2 weeks. I have some food related questions for recent Magic cruisers… 1. Can I order 2 burgers at Guy’s burger? 2. Does Blue Iguana Cantina offer bowl of chips/nachos? Like as a snack? 3. Is Lobster night still a thing? If so, which night on 6 night cruise usually? 4. I saw a news that late night snack will be back on Carnival ships.. does Magic offer it now? 5. I have early time dining at 6pm… my friend booked this cruise very last minute he has “anytime dining”. Is there ANYTHING we can do to have dinner together in main dining room? many thanks in advance!!!!

Regarding 6 Do I need to take any action? I do not want to add a daily limit. Their cards are automatically linked to credit card I added, correct? 3: I assume we would receive an envelope the night before? thank you!!!!

Directly through Carnival?

Hello fellow cruisers! I depart on 8/13 from Norfolk VA on Magic and super excited about it. yesterday, my friend called me to inform that he and his two kids really really wants to tag along. problem is this cruise is sold out - booking is not available on Carnival website. What is the best way/strategy at this point to have a chance at booking this cruise? I am sure there will be voluntary/involuntary cancellations up to cruise date but how do I find out?? anyone with experience booking this late? any information or tips are appreciated. thank you!

Hello! I will be boarding on Magic in 4 month and cannot wait!!! I used to cruise on RCI but wanted to visit Bimini and Norfolk is only 1 hour drive from my house! I have booked pretty much everything but Cheers.. here is the dilemma- I drink a lot but my wife doesn’t. Not for medical nor religious reason.. she just doesn’t drink alcohol 😂 and not really drink coffee or mocktails either. my understanding is both adults in same cabin must purchase Cheers package, right? It would be waste of money for my wife. Will Carnival allow just bottomless bubbles package for my wife? Royal allows 2nd adult to purchase less expensive drink package but it looks like Carnival only has one Cheers package. thanks in advance!

I see thank you!

Do you need to register your kid at the Camp Ocean as soon as onboard?

How do you order food at Cucina on embarkation day? Is it made to order? Will there be waiters/servers walking around?
