Hi, I own Carnival shares via my online broker Selfwealth. Besides the initial trade, I have not received any updates/voting with my name from the custodian. Shareholder Benefit requires evidence within 3 months. May I know from those whom own shares and claim the benefits, how you do it or which broker you use to allow you to receive updated evidence of your ownership? Thanks.

I like playing the roulette but prefer to do it without interaction with the dealer or fellow guest. In my past cruises, I use the ETG on Carnival, Princess and P&O. I am wondering if anyone knows if Quantum of the seas has ETG roulette? Thanks

Depends on what time you want to board. In June, I arrive at 11am for a 12.30pm boarding. At 11.15am, they started calling suite and privilege guests. Then people based on boarding time pretty much in 5mins interval or as much as the queues can take. After the paperwork, a number is written on your boarding paper. Suite and privilege guests will once again be called through customs first, before the numbers. I was on board at 11.45am. This will differ each cruise. If you opt to board later, say 1pm, I have read that there is pretty much no queues.

Its abit dry due to the amount of flour in it. Not the best tasting.

Imagine a skinless prawn sausage diced to a one inch length.

I have, the managers also felt disappointed and commented that I wasn't the first to voice my concerns. I reassured them that the service was still excellent. I have completed the survey and distinguished service vs food vs supply of expected food.

I think that cost for maintaining Specialties would be another topic. But my main objective is to sound out for those looking forward to MDR lobster, paying is the only option. It rubbed me the wrong way as the menus on app stated they were still there on the day itself, only to be proven wrong. The app otherwise have been a useful guide.

The question would be, if Carnival, Royal and others are still doing it, why not Princess? And you maybe right, it is to do with cost cutting. Otherwise, they would at the very least replace it with large prawns or equivalent and not two dices of prawn sausages.

Do note, I have been told the no lobster situation is only for Aus sailing thus far, i.e. the 4 ships here. All other ships are still doing it.

I would say the lobsters from The Catch were great, would be lovely to compare, but alas.

Btw, there is no more lobster on second formal. It is replaced with a very dry mashed prawn dumpling.

Goodbye Hobart. MP leaving. Formal night but no Lobster.... 😞

My kids got their 25 obc and were super excited.

I did P&O and carnival. This is my first on Princess and I know some inclusion have been removed. However, for $20 more pp pn, the quality of cruise is definitely still worth IMO. This holds true to even in my kids opinion. Plus the older crowd have been very sweet to my kids, which is a nice surprise.

Hi, we are on the same sailing. My wife and myself got it after much back and forth, but not the 3rd and 4th guest. I presented the email sent to me by the head office to guest services. It stated $25 OBC is for all guests in my cabin. Still no news. On the side note, see you around.
