Had a Loft 19 Cabana for the Sept 30 sailing of the Mardi Gras and now I never want to sail without a cabana again. Too bad they are only on 3 ships.

If you had never heard of 'Cheers', you wouldn't know the difference and it wouldn't matter a whit to you.

Maybe she lost her Fantasy Football League.

Do they ever have a discount on the 7 Day Thermal Suite pass. Last time we bought the Pass there was a per person discount if a couple bought it rather than just 1.

I'm all for the idea, but, I'm not sure I trust anyone to implement reusable liquor bottles.

Yeah, not allowing 8 people at a cabana you reserved for 4 is pretty heinous.

We've had cabanas 4 times. Every time has been a range of #5 on up to probably #12. Our favorite was probably #7, near the restrooms and close to the lunch spot. Though the time we picked #7 to be close to lunch we had way too many buckets and completely missed lunch.

I saw it while it was still up and it DID say $59.95 per day. In the summary it did not say 'per day', but you wouldn't expect it to. All that happened was the multiplier glitched after choosing Cheers. I honestly cannot see how Carnival would be required to, or even why they would choose to do anything for anyone. What they should do is say, "OK, you chose Cheers for $59.95 per day, which day do you want?"

Vatican City is correct. Next smallest is Monaco.

Darn, now we all have to be on the lookout for what you take seriously.

I know what they advertise. My addition of a small tip may have more to do with my distrust in general of whether or not bartenders actually receive all that is supposed to be coming to them.

Grats are included in Cheers. I usually leave an extra buck a drink. I tip more in Alchemy Bar. I get to know those bartenders, some of their drinks are pretty sweet and they will craft them for me so they don't taste so sweet. They will even make up some new drinks for me.

My wife and I have been on the same cruises. Most of the charging typically goes in me. Our last booked cruise she had a $500 OBC offer and mine was $50. Cost was the same for both.

With FTTF you get priority boarding but for some strange reason have to choose a boarding time. When we have FTTF we always choose a late boarding time leaving early ones for people that want them.

Bread Pudding!!! bitter n blanc!!!! I always have to check the menus for which night they will offer it.

Loved seeing this trip report pop up! Thanks in advance for all your hard work. I know it will be good.

We like FTTF. We like to get onboard as early as possible without getting lucky in some lottery. We like dropping off our bags. It seems like whenever I need guest services there's 150 people in line. I like having the short line available to me. I can see the other side, if people don't care about those things it's not important to them.

Charge the auto grats now or later, I don't care, it's all the same to me.

Another great review. I have done a few Disney World vacation reviews so I know how involved it is. We have not cruised since 2020. We just booked a Sept cruise on the Mardi Gras and the first thing I did was search for a trip report by you. Success! Thanks!
