Yes. And while they’re at it, an ice dispenser would be great, albeit a bit noisy. Or maybe put them in the self laundry rooms.

We were unimpressed with Luminosa as well. I think this ship’s putt -putt is nonexistent. The shops had nice things I’ve not seen elsewhere though.

Has anyone played PB on the Vista? I realize it has a basketball court. But what I want to know is if anyone has used it to play PB. I don’t need a net, I just want to hit the ball back-and-forth for 10 to 15 minutes. We were on the wonder of the seas, and the line was ridiculous. We were also on the Luminosa, and the basketball court was constantly filled, no matter what time we got there.

😳. That’s insane. In 32 cruises I’ve always been given a choice. In fact, I ask evening turndown and for ice twice a day. Never have I ever been told no. I ask for extra pillow, an extra blanket also. I tell them no towel animals. I hand them a list with my cabin number and my preferences. I’m going to start tipping extra in advance in addition to my normal after. 🤷‍♀️. They seem surprised when I seek them out afterwards to tip them extra.

This is why I haven’t returned to the ABC’s. We went once in 2015 or so and 2 of the 3 excursions we booked did a switch-er-oo. 😡 And these were through Carnival, which we rarely do. This ticked me off so bad that I’ve never returned to these ports.

Wow! Thanks for the posts. I’m on Vista twice next year. I’ve never been so I was really looking forward to it. Looks like I’m going to need to lower my expectations. 😳

Log in. Click on the 3 lines in top right corner. When the box opens, click on Booking and Order Details. It should say paid in full. You can click on View invoice details then.

Not sure that’s a fair statement. Not everyone is removing tips. Some people are just having questions in general. I go there sometimes to have my friend’s tips moved to my account, refund on wi-fi, questions about debarkation and a myriad of other things. I’m almost diamond and have never removed tips. Although, if I felt the need to do so, I’d do it.

Sometimes. My husband and I were on the Mardi Gras. I had paid for premium Wi-Fi. He did NOT. I was in the bed watching TV, and he was out on the balcony. We were not near a port. I texted him, and he answered. 🤷‍♀️

I really wish they’d bring this back. When I was in my early 20’s I had no money nor did I understand how this worked. I’m ready to play now!!

Where do you go to get these umbrellas? i’m assuming you get some kind of ticket and it indicates where on that?

$34.99

The umbrellas are not the clamshells. The rental umbrellas are a new thing. Maybe because guests were complaining that there’s little shade near the big ship/bar thing. I’m grateful to have an umbrella at least, as long as it’s large enough to be considered shade. Hopefully someone has rented these and will respond.

Since the cabanas are ridiculously priced now, I went ahead and rented an umbrella for $35. The umbrella supposedly is good for two people. I am wondering if it does in fact work for two people. Has anybody had experience with this? Unless this umbrella is pretty large, I don’t see it. thanks.

Thanks, but we have been trying to do this asking us if we want to purchase another device. How do you specifically do this?

I purchased one package. Can my husband take control of my Internet? If so, how?

Where are the luggage tags and boarding pass?

I sometimes cruise at the beginning of Dec. It seems that’s when hotels start decorating and that’s the LAST thing I want to think about when I’m cruising. Ugh. I just want to relax and not think about shopping, wrapping, cooking, cleaning, etc.

I’m not thrilled to get my picture taken either. In fact, I hate it. However, I’ve heard that the photographers get credit or have a quota they’re trying to make. Maybe that’s not true? At any rate, despite me looking like a bag lady, I still stop for a photo occasionally. They almost look relieved. I tell them that it will increase my chances for buying if it’s in black and white and they sometimes accommodate.

What nobody is mentioning is that this is not very “green” and half of it likely ends up in landfills. Either a tshirt or free drink would make more sense.

Ugh. We’re on the Vista twice next year during hot months. I hope the AC is fixed by then.

Hmmm. If I were referred to as this, then I would no longer be available. I am sure you meant your sex kitten wife, no?

Has anyone recently done this Resort For a Day ? I’m curious if it’s worthwhile. Also curious about the taxi service or shuttle service.

Agreed. I’ve sailed solo a few times on a casino deal (free). I paid the $200 and received $200 OBC. I paid taxes for myself only. I paid these when booking it. Nothing was requested from me about taxes for a 2nd person. One thing about going solo, I feel that always tipping extra is appropriate as the room attendant is only getting one person’s tips, so I try to make up for that.

Yay for Carnival!! As a mom to a vegan, it’s great to see. We eat vegan sometimes and what I don’t think people realize is that salads and plates of straight veggies are not really considered a meal for vegans. I’ve had this problem at restaurants when asking if they have vegan meals. It’s not easy to come up with decent vegan meals and I applaud Carnival for making the effort.
