Venezia July 25th - Aug 2nd - Mini Review
HappySails4U replied to steveknj's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
* Heard that the shuttles were over booked and some passengers were told that they would need to find another means of transportation and refunds were not given. * It has been reported that there is no Carnival staff member to assist with the departing shuttles and no signage for direction. Basically on your own and then find out that the bus is full and must stand and wait for additional hour(s). Our first time sailing from NYC and trying to avoid as many hurdles as possible ! -
Venezia July 25th - Aug 2nd - Mini Review
HappySails4U replied to steveknj's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Thanks for your review. We are sailing from NYC mid-Sept and my spouse will be super focused on the most efficient method of transportation from the ship to LGA. We initially thought about using the Carnival shuttle but the horrible reviews made us reconsider. In your opinion If the "taxi stand" is so horrible should we just plan to use Lyft ??? -
Carnival Venezia 27 Jun - 5 July Cruise....
HappySails4U replied to chisox021's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Thank you for posting about your experience This is concerning since there have already been multiple reports of fights on other Venezia cruises. We are booked on the Venezia in September sailing in Canada and hoping that the crowd will be a bit more tame than the usual fun + sun cruises !! Just looking forward to a relaxing vacation without all the drama !! -

Venezia 1st cruise out of NYC to Bermuda June 15
HappySails4U replied to shof515's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I had the same thought that this ship will be perfect for sailing into Canada. Based on many posted reviews it doesn't seem like the Venezia will be a good fit for Caribbean travel. The pools and lido area don't appear to support the party atmosphere. -

If the bread was warm to begin with then the frozen brick would be a bit more pliable . . . -

Thank so much for sharing this information !! In regard to the gypsy cab how do we ID one of these ? Do you have to ask to see permits, etc ?? -
LIVE! Venezia Maiden Voyage 5/29 - Let’s Cruise!
HappySails4U replied to TravelBluebird's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Once you are settled back at home can you post your experience with debarkation at the NY port (transportation). What I have read is that the Carnival shuttle service is very unreliable and can even be cancelled. Others have reported walking blocks away from the port just to catch Uber / Lyft. We are sailing in September (first time in NY ) and trying to piece together the plans for travel back home. Thanks! -

Carnival Halloween Costume Suggestions
HappySails4U replied to havanadaydreaming's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
NOLA (beads) for Halloween hasn't been a big favorite. The NOLA attire is worn for the actual Mardi Gras parade with the king and queen. Halloween 2021 Colonel Sanders 🐔 and the Mrs. won the top prize . They offer some bewitching cocktails ! -
The Heroes lounge on the Mardi Gras is not large but has the big screens and comfy seating. Our experience with the games is that there will some shown however if it isn't the game you are interested in you are out of luck. The bartenders can't change the station and complaining to guest services will get you nowhere. We enjoy college and Pro 🏈 and realized our mistake last year.

Totally agree about the lack of serenity on the Sunshine !! This ship ranks high among my least favorites!!

It's been fun Radiance, but we're done ...
HappySails4U replied to csm5986142's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
We sailed on an 8-day cruise on the Sunshine and were not impressed with the ship. The common areas were so over crowded and the serenity area was located right next to the main Lido pool. No separation at all so you had to endure all the noise and people. Nothing serene about it. -
A couple of years ago we were at the beach at Costa Maya and it was really thick. Both in the ocean and on the beach. Apparently it is a endless battle that can't be won. Instead of building sand castles the kids had their arms full bringing it up on the beach. 🌴

Yes that bathroom gift basket was a nice touch! There was a time when a paperback romance ❤️ novel was included!!

In comparison to years past, it takes so much longer to eat in the MDR. We often skip dessert just so we can make to a show on time. Also amazing how long it takes them to clear the table between courses.
