  1. its always those impatient idiots that ruin things for the people that follow the rules. similar problem on ships
  2. this is similar to what happens when ships can not dock due to fog. Tampa and Galveston had issues with fog delaying the ship arrival to port It is possible for the ships to relocation temporary to nearby Port Everglades but that causes a massive logistics nightmare of shuttle people back to maimi to get their cars, issues with airport shuttles and so on
  3. can you explain what went wrong? unfortunately it is normal for the first few cruises of a new ship to be not 10000% perfect and not live up to exceptions of a good cruise i was on the inaugural cruise to Bermuda and the only thing that i don't like is the lido buffet area with the crowds. guys burger always had a long slow moving line that never ended. this is a more of a carnival problem as i sailed on other cruise lines with a better buffet layout that does a better job of managing crowds
  4. If you keep all of your emails and never delete any, the itinerary is on the cruise confirmation email with the invoice
  5. The port and carnival will be doing renovations to the terminal https://www.virginiabusiness.com/article/carnival-to-double-trips-from-norfolk-proposes-year-round-cruising/ https://www.wavy.com/news/local-news/norfolk/carnival-sunshine-to-sail-year-round-from-norfolk-beginning-2025/ https://www.13newsnow.com/article/travel/nauticus-carnival-sunshine-norfolk-cruise/291-5918cec1-850f-4431-93fd-627d5936fadc
  6. where is the donut shop on the oasis? i never found it on my cruise last month
  7. The port taxes and fees is going to increase soon and i bet royal will pass these costs to everyone: https://cruiseradio.net/how-the-new-bahamas-port-tax-will-impact-cruise-passengers/
  8. Carnival corporation ships like Carnival, Princess and Holland dock at Amber Cove All other cruise lines like MSC, Norwegian, Virgin, Royal dock a few miles down the road at Taino Bay What makes everything very very confusing is these unofficial ships in port websites like cruisemapper, cruisetimettables, etc, etc call this port Puerto Plata so you see all cruise line ships in port. amber cove does has an official port website that only show the carnival ships in port: https://ambercove.com/
  9. its an actual wall and hallways. there is one hallway between the stairs/elevator and another hallway in front of the 7446-7456 cabins with a wall between the hallways
  10. Southern Caribbean that goes to the ABC islands?
  11. there is no such thing as over payment. after final payment they do not offer any refunds. they might give you some obc or a free upgrade depending on the price difference and it is a one thing only
  12. Manhattan cruise terminal, its the only costa/carnival ship at that terminal
  13. yes they are but not for all ports use that gangway. most ports use deck 0 as the main gangway deck 1 also has a similar setup with a space for gangway too if needed
  14. it has the older classical carnival menus
  15. Here is scan copy all of the fun times from this cruise 4 Day Bermuda Fun Times.pdf
  16. From what i noticed in my area at different pizzerias and Italian restaurants, the Italian food is commonly called Italian American. this is where you get the various hero and parmesan foods that is popular here . pretty much anything with sauce and cheese is considered Italian food actual Italian food from Italy and those places is completely different
  17. earlier this year on the carnival sunshine 4 day cruise to the bahamas. strong winds preventing docking making the cruise a cruise to no where cruise
  18. i did not noticed any smells. i did see the dog once
  19. i see it listed in the fun times and in the hub. never went to it
  20. in march next year i am doing a Southern Caribbean on the venezia. Barbados is the only port with no excursions
  21. the buffet setup is the same setup as on other carnival ships. its the whole area. for breakfast and lunch both areas of the buffet is open and for the dinner it is always the buffet towards the back there is a carving station on all sides of the buffet and it is part of the regular buffet there is two sweet areas, one of the front of the buffet and one towards the back
  22. Gift shop has inaugural season merchandise. I got a magnet. The cabin walls is magnetic
  23. Platinum disembarkation information As the ship gets closer to New York, the speed is slowly reducing. Now doing about 14 knots
  24. One of the worse events on the ship. It's a sad reminder the cruise is over.
