I'll be on Carnival Celebration from Mar. 5-12, 2023. Right now it says ship arrives Port of Miami at 8 am. We've cruised before but I honestly can't remember how accurate that is. I feel like we've always arrived in port much earlier. Anyway, do you think I'm safe with an 11:40 am flight out of Fort Lauderdale? I have a feeling it's a busy time for the airport. We also have TSA pre-check.

Flights from Florida to Chicago that Sunday are OUTRAGEOUS right now.

We will be cruising on the new Celebration in March. I don't necessarily want wifi to connect to email or social because I'd be kind of happy to get away from it. What I would like to know is there FREE wifi that will support a simple iMessage? I understand photos, etc likely wouldn't work -- but would feel more comfortable if I could stay connected with home as I have elderly parents. I know we stayed connected last time we cruised, but I think we may have paid for a plan. I don't remember. We are also traveling with others, so it sounds like the Hub App chat will work for that.

Looking for suggestions in Ocho Rios.  We've been there before, but it's been a while and if memory serves correctly there wasn't much interesting right near the port.  I think last time we did the bamboo beach break, and we are thinking of doing it again.  Has anyone done the VIP one?  How is it different than the regular?  I think we did the regular one on our last trip.  Like I said, it's been a while.  Are there any beaches nearby that are nice that don't require and excursion?  We don't like to be gone ALL day on an excursion. More looking to sit on a nice beach.  But I feel like a few of the comments about the Bamboo beach break were that it was rushed and they weren't there the 4 hours they said.

Considering the Cheers program but one question I have is, if my boyfriend goes to the bar to order a drink for the both of us, can he? Or do I have to be right next to him?
