  1. If you are not in the greatest shape I would buy the round trip tickets. I made a mistake thinking I could walk down the 3 km. The sign said 45 minutes but took me 1.5 hrs. Because it was so steep and my legs ached for 2cdays afterward.
  2. Still unable to book Queen Mary for April, 2024. Website only allows to book up to December 30, 2023. Anyone know when 2024 will open?
  3. In Bergen we took the hoho bus and then got off at the funicular. We made the mistake of only purchasing one way tickets. Thought it would be easy to walk down. It was 3 kms. Said 45 minutes. Took 1.5 hours for us. Very steep. Caught the hoho bus back to the ship around 4pm. Driver said it was the last bus back.
  4. We were just on the Pride where we turned gold from red was told we get a free water so we did. Then in the theater on the last night ordered two drinks. Said I was eligible but hubby wasn't be ause he redeemed the water. He went to guest services and they gave him a voucher and was able to get the cocktail .
  5. Thanks for doing this review. I could t keep up with all the non cruise discussions on the transatlantic report. We will be on a Journey cruise in February.
  6. It was a pleasure meeting you and B on this cruise. The great weather continued on our Norway leg into the first port of Bergen. Now we are in the second stop of Alesund. Started out warm and sunny till noon then changed to windy, chilly and cloudy with small drops of rain. But still a great cruise.
  7. I am currently on a b2b sailing booked through my travel agent. This is only my second time on Carnival. The first one was booked directly with Carnival so there was no TA OBC. They are telling me that all travel agent's on board credit is always considered cruise cash and non refundable. This has never been true on other cruise lines and my TA never told me either. I wound up buying gift certificates to use to pay for my next Carnival cruise. Is this always the case?
  8. We checked in half hour ago (10 45). Still says one hour to go.
  9. We did Sandra's 5 hour tour up the Basque coast and the Guggenheim which turned into 7 hours. It would have even been longer but people were afraid we would miss the boat.
  10. Our 5 hour excursion with Sandra's tour turned into 7 hours. We went up the Basque coast and did the !Guggenheim museum
  11. Our A/C is stuck on frozen. Said they would fix it today.
  12. We are at Newark. Plane was suppose to go at 7 30pm. Now delayed until 9 15pm. Sigh
  13. We are on this cruise with you. On Saturday we are doing Girona and Costa Brava with In-Out Barcelona Tours. We saw all the major Barcelona sights when we were there in 2018.
  14. On our United nonstop from Newark to Barcelona they changed planes on us and went from a two across side to a bigger three across. We didn't want a middle seat so changed to two aisles next to each other. Both seats next to us have been vacant until today.😭 Was hoping for the extra room. Leaving tomorrow.
  15. Hi. We are on the Pride leaving Barcelona a day before you. We will be on the Venezia in February so looking forward to your trip report.
  16. I also got an upgrade offer but didn't know to where. I was afraid to click the red button in case it made me lose the cabin I was already booked in. In the future is it safe to click the red button without actually changing cabins, just to know what they are offering?
  17. We are on this cruise with you as well as the B2B in Norway. It will only be our second Carnival cruise but if it's as good as the first one we will be happy. Looking forward to hearing your perspective.
  18. Just FYI I did email the special services department and was turned down.
  19. When did you find out your dining time for dinner and did you request any changes?
  20. Do you have to do the on line check in or just see guest services?
  21. Is there a public shuttle to Cocoa Beach? MSC wants $50pp which is crazy. We don't get in until after 1pm.
