That is explained on CVS's website. What to expect, etc.
Thanks but they never said anything except they would give the swab to the patient who would do it him/herself with instructions. My son has my wifes nose which means it bleeds heavily all the time and would be bad with a deep swab.

Anyone know what the raid antigen test is like i.e. cvs or walgreens. Is this the one that goes way up your nose or something else? Thanks

About 45 minutes until the first person answered and about another 15 minutes after being transferred to the casino offer dept. Roughly an hour total.

Thanks. I finally someone to answer after about 1h40m. Mine was also a casino offer but they did not transfer me there. You could tell carnival was being slammed because she just said it was cancelled and I would be getting my money back and she was trying to get me off the phone asap for the next call.

I just got off the phone with Carnival and they canceled & refunded my 8/24 Alaska cruise w/o penalty. It was a casino (Jackpot) offer so they had to transfer me to that dept. to complete. She didn't bat an eye at my cancellation request, she just asked if I was interested in a later cruise and I told her that I just wanted to start fresh after all of the dust settles. It would have been nice to cruise w/o restrictions but there are too many other vacation options available than to deal with these uncertain times. I still haven't received the email announcing the new protocols.
How long were you on hold. I am sitting on 1.5 hours now.

Unbelievable. I cancelled my RCL cruise because they required testing for vaccinated passengers and booked mardi gras yesterday for august 14th. I even called carnival yesterday and was assured there would be no testing and my non refundable payment would be given back if they did. I am about to call and cancel but I guarantee they will try and screw me.

I feel y’all. Our 9/18 Horizon ABC cruise dropped Bonaire and added LaRamona and Amber Cove. Not ideal IMO.

My condolences on LaRomana.

I have the same problem. I cancelled my odyssey of the seas cruise because they require testing for vaccinations and that was my red line. I can do a mardi gras cruise in 11 days but I am not sure if they will change the rules again. For me this is a free oceanview with $500 casino cash and free drinks anywhere on board. A good deal for my son and I and we are fully vaccinated but we are against testing. What to do what to do.

Quick question before I make a decision on a cruise with carnival. I am fully vaccinated, live in florida, and would sail out of port canaveral. I just cancelled my Odyssey of the seas cruise because they require testing even on vaccinated and I am tired of RCL changing their rules all the time. Does carnival require any testing at all on vaccinated passengers. My son and I would be going and both of us are vaccinated. thanks
-
My tolerance for rcl has reached an end. Just cancelled my august 14th oddessey of the seas cruise. I have done everything I was suppose to during covid but i refuse to be tested to go on a cruise. That is my red line.

I am so confused. I have an 8 night sailing on oddessey of the seas August 14th out of Florida. I have called 2 agents who talked to 3 more agents and all swear that vaccinated passengers do not need to be tested. They are making this super difficult.
-
I have watched some videos now of people who are fully vaccinated having to test before they get on the ship. I hope this is not true in August or I will cancel. I did my time. I wore a mask every single time I went out. I got vaccinated on the first day I was eligible. I am not going through testing to get on and stay on a ship especially when you can get on and then contact it from somebody else. Enough already.

I decided not to do it either due to cost and time. Their ultra alaska cruise would be 2k for 2 people while at RCL I could sail for free. No thanks. I have noticed my offers are getting really bad now.
-
I just got my first ever ultra cruise from carnival offer. However, the lowest price is 449 per person so are these worth it considering I have mountains of rcl free cruise offers? I have been on an elite cruise before with carnival which was great but that cruise was free while the ultra would cost me over 1k for 2 people. Thanks for your advice.

Can you tell me if you had any of your cruises cancelled because of the virus? Trying to figure out why the wife and I have stopped getting offers.
thank you.
Nope I saw it coming and did not make any reservations. I went to https://www.clubroyaleoffers.com/ to look at them. I have not gotten any mail or emails in a few months now and I used to get 2 mailings a week.

Hi. I have 3 offers in my account and wondered if someone had information on them. The first I will not put as it is my obvious tier level cruise.
2020 NOV-FEB 2021 SAILINGS (20VAR1) JUNIOR SUITE + $250 FREEPLAY
2020 HIGH VALUE HOLIDAY SAILINGS OFFER (20HOL1) BALCONY + $250 FREEPLAY
Anyone know if these are on any sailings? Thanks

I got the offers but I am not falling for it. First they were putting stuff up like free cruise then you click on it and it says pay $200 per room and get $400 credit. Then you put 2 people in and suddenly they wanted $200 per person plus of course fees and taxes. After I shredded them on facebook(not that they care) they changed it to $200 per person get $400 credit. Basically you are handing them $700. Normally I would go for it but this feels more like they are trying to get cash up front and not care about the actually cruising part. They just issued millions of new shares and bonds at around 13%. They pay nothing if they get cash from their customers.
Finally look at their refund policy. They have been inconsistent and not honoring cash refunds. Maybe it is a good deal but I do not trust carnival at all right now and will pass. Over the last 2 years they have really treated their casino players like crap so I will return the favor.

Does anyone have more information on the jingle and mingle. Oddly enough I could find nothing via google except one question that was never answered. Thanks.

Just now, BEENSAILING said:
Royal provides the gifts. It is a gift draw. If your number gets called after somone else u can pick item from whatever is on table or take from someone else. It is fun. And not a typical white elephant in terms of value of item.
So if you get a good gift then run out the door as fast as you can? 🙂
-
Received a jingle & mingle offer today.
1)interior for two stateroom
2)onboard welcome reception
3)private party
4)casino hosted gift exchange
It mentions a premium white elephant gift exchange. What exactly is that? If we just get each other gifts then this offer does not sound all that great.

My kid and I picked this cruise because of San Juan. We packed a mountain of cat treats because we love to walk along the ocean and spoil the hundreds of feral cats. This sucks. They mentioned refunding excursions but not port fees. I assume they will give those back.
-
They just cancelled Puerto rico and will not add another port so on a 7 day cruise we have 2 ports and 5 sea days. Boring.
-
I am on the Harmony now also. There has been no announcement yet about cancelling but we should know in less than an hour.
-
No biggie but I just thought this was a funny carnival offer.

I saw one elite member get a 2.6k handpay the first night. She was up to nearly 6k in points so that probably got her even. I did hear about a 20k jackpot hit but I have no clue if that was an elite member or not. I also saw a 1.2k and 4k jackpot hit. On my last day I checked my offers and there were more elite cruises offered. The problem is there were only 2 left and this one(pardon me why I cry) was for elite cruise to Alaska, Panama Canal, and Hawaii. Those were sold out(sob). I got the brochure in my mail the day I got back but by then it was too late. My kid, who dreams of going to Alaska on a cruise, was heartbroken. A free balcony and excursion would have been incredible. I will be on the January 20th on the Horizon(elite also) but it is leaving out of my most hated port- Miami.
Diamond/Platinum Perks
in Carnival Cruise Lines
Posted
We have our first cruise in a few years thanks to covid and are platinum. How is embarkation done if you are platinum. We used to show up early and go to a special section in the port and then platinum/diamond were let on first. How do they do it now or is that perk gone and you just show up at the time they give you? Thanks
