Does Carnival (specifically the Carnival Sunshine) offer babysitting or other programs for children under 2 years old? I found a part of their website that said they did, then another that seemed to say they didn't. Just curious what the current policy is?

Hi all,

My girlfriend and I are booked on a cruise right after Thanksgiving, but she just recently broke her ankle. The cruise is for her birthday and she still wants to make the most of it, but she will probably not be walking much, if at all, by then. If anyone has ever cruised with a broken ankle/leg, and has any tips/experiences that you wouldn't otherwise think of cruising on two legs, we's certainly like to hear!

Thanks :)

I'm more concerned with the space and how it's laid out in the cabin moreso than for the balcony. The room I booked says it has a sofa pullout and one upper berth. Do you remember if that berth was in the way?

 

The berth in my room tucked up flush into the ceiling, I never knew it was there.

Is it safe to book a flight home at 11:15? How soon could we get off the ship and get to the Tampa airport? Are suite passengers allowed to get off first? TIAFAR.

 

update...After reading a lot of the recent member reviews, it looks like the self-disembarkation gets you off quite fast. Gotta give credit to Carnival for trying something new. I've never heard of that method before. It also helps that you can keep your bags in your room the last night. How many passengers would you say use this method? If a lot, then I would think the hallways and elevators could get quite jammed in the mornings.

Also, I believe I remember reading somewhere that if you have an early flight, you can go down to the purser's desk the night before and they will tell you where to meet in the morning. Don't quote me on this, but i thought I saw it in the last capers. I was in Zone 5, the first group called, and walked off the boat at 9:30. This depends on many things though.
