all of my casino offers expired yesterday. I am thinking a new round of offers will come out any day now.

It doesn't show up on your booking. I went to oceansplayersclub.com and select verify your casino offer. They will send you an email confirming what offer you have booked. I have never had a problem once on board, however, I always have the email back up just in case.

Is the same law for sailings out of New York. I think most people put the liquor in their suitcase and bypass the table when leaving the port.

My DW and I have really good casino offers right now and have booked 2 cruises with another couple. Me in one room and my wife in the other room. Once on board we went to guest services and switched rooms and received new sail and sign cards. Super easy. No need to carry around an extra key card. The only issue is the luggage. Just tag the luggage to room not the person.

I have sailed 4 times since the restart and I only remembered to go and pick up the Platinum gifts at pixel on 2 of them. I don't really think about the Platinum perks when going on a cruise. I like the priority embarkation and debarkation.

When I cruised in December of 2021 on the Dream out of Galveston they showed the NFL games on Sunday, Sunday night and Thursday night. They also showed the Sunday afternoon game on Lido. I didn't sail last NFL season so I am not sure about Thursday night games on Amazon.

I do this on every cruise. I set up the account as a cash account and add money at a kiosk during the week. I will usually wait till later in the week to add a credit card if I am running low on cash or having a losing week in the casino.

I meant when my kids were younger and we brought along one of their friends.

They will only have the game on the small TV's in the casino.

When my kids were younger I always brought along a letter authorizing them to sail with us and a medical power of attorney. I was never asked to show the letter authorizing them to sail, and thank God I never needed the power of attorney. however, I had piece of mind just in case I needed the documents.

They did remove the one on the Miracle during the last dry dock in November. They usually run a big poker tournament cruise once a year. This was precovid, so I would be surprised if they removed the tables. Plus they take a big rake so it is a money maker.

They don't have to be linked as a cruise companion to add them to ATD, it is just easier that way. If they are link they will show up on a list to choose who is dining. If they are not linked you can search for them by name and add them.

Thanks for being a good sport. We kept our son's great dane for a couple of months. I never knew how gentle they were. But it was like we had a horse inside our house.

Maybe the dogs were checking for Lawyers, LOL.

What amenities would be closed? The skyride? I am also thinking they were the only ones that were sick. Carnival does a good job of notifying everyone of a norovirus outbreak. They wouldn't keep that quiet.

I love the Vista because of the Havana area. I do wonder about some of the complaints. I have never waiting more than 30 minutes for YTD even with a big group. I can see long wait times if you are trying to go at peak times like formal night when if first opens. The other complaint about missing a port, what could Carnival have done. It must have been high winds wouldn't allow them to dock.

I am surprised that Long Beach didn't have them since California is a legal state.

I have yet to see a drug dog. Which ports have them. My last 2 cruises were out of long beach. Before that Galveston.

does her parents or grandparents still live in Texas? If so, they can go to any courthouse in Texas and request a copy of the birth certificate.

Houston has 2 airports. IAH is on the North side of Houston and Hobby is on the south side. Hobby is closer. It is still about 1 hour to get to port.

Taking pricing out of the equation, our Cabanas worth renting? I have heard so many reviews where other people either enter the Cabana or use the amenities, chairs, hammocks etc.... I don't think I should have to leave one person in the Cabana at all times to protect my space.

I have 3 cruises booked right now where I get free play and free cheers. I am not really a drinker but I like the free cheers for coffees, water and maybe one mixed drink per day. They definitely don't lose money on me with the free cheers.

My regular casino offers are better than my elite cruise offers. Why would I choose Elite?

I have hit 2 straight flushes on the Texas Hold em table game on different cruises. One was for around $1800 the other was $2400. My DW has hit a few hand pays for around $1200 each. I don't play slots so I won't ever hit the big bucks.

@Saint Greg I wish I could send you one of my casino offers. I could book you and I and just be a no show. Is that fraud???
