Any word on if they've hit the Mardi Gras yet? We board Saturday and were hoping the new menus would be available.

It was less than 50 lbs when we left, but it may be a little heavier on the way back.
Just like me!

Sure, I board next Saturday!
Actually I'm looking for some relief. It's been 97-99 degrees in FL with the humidity it's horrid. Cozumel will feel like the mountains @ 90 degrees.

Never had an issue getting a chair on my mega yacht.

If I was flying in... Miami, Eastern all the way. Spend the night in South Beach, foodie San Juan, Mohagany Bay > Amber Cove. Love the itinerary, especially St Maarten

That's how complementaries work both on land based casinos and cruiseships. My point being people want an easy way to get a 'free' cruise and it's really not that easy if you have a limited budget. As I have said my husband and I have been doing this for years both in land based casinos and cruiseships. To be very frank It's a lot of work and record keeping. We report on our joint tax returns over 6 figures in W2-G income for many years. The amount of record keeping my husband needs to do in order not to have to pay taxes on the total amount of reported winnings is pretty onerous. On our last cruise 2 weeks ago on the Odyssey of the Seas my husband generated 15 W2-G forms for a 7 day Europe cruise!
We never win enough to worry about it...maybe that's how we keep getting offers!!🤣

I would defer to the latter Tom, after all the mods have a difficult time dealing with the opinions of many on here and have to sometimes place some people in the sin bin. Gotta give them their due and put a smile on their face if some did squirm a bit.
LOL fresh off a week in the Sin Bin...nice name for it!

As others have said, it's TOTAL COIN IN. Not "I took $300 onboard and got a free cruise!"
You took $300 onboard, won and lost a bit for a few days and left broke. That's a different calculation. You win a couple fat piggies with your $300 and feed it all back, that's why they want you back.
Take $300 in cash and just play table minimum blackjack. See how many offers you get.

Like the mountains of fruit juice I see off to the side that people try to bring on. EVERY DAMN TIME

I believe they got rid of this after the pandemic restart.
Ugh, I'd not be a pleasant ***** for Guest Services to deal with.

We'll just walk right through the priority line...Pick an early check-in and walk right through.

I'd fly home, don't they have some guarantee?

Just did it this morning! Was easy, did run into a bit of a bug that I had to close the window that you use to enter data for the Ticket Contract to come up but, other than that easy peasy.

Have had them change ports, and change the order of ports to avoid storms. They would typically put the maps with the "Cone of concern" on them from NOAA along with information about itinerary changes

We request evening and get it. They would prefer to knock them all out in the morning though.

Done both, the Magic a few times...
As others have said, depends on what you're looking for. I wouldn't hesitate to book either but, I'd prefer the Celebration slightly. Large non-smoking casino matters to me.

No, you can’t. But you can ask for an extra card, and play slots on the same account.
Really? Hmmmm interesting.

I get that she's initially going to sail from Texas but, to put that on the hull? Guess she's got a front plate!🤣
Should have put these on The MG and Celebration!

Earning points playing at Table Games?
in Carnival Cruise Lines

In Jan on the Celebration the only points we showed was slots, zero points from hours and hours of $25 BJ play. Boarding MG this weekend, we'll see if that's still the case.
