standards will be needed because folks don't know what to use...like NO SCOTCH TAPE...no problem with standards!

the more I think about this topic...lemme see, larger cruise ships, more people, consipiracy theory....seriously?

what is a "booze cruise"?

ah well, cruising from texas wasn't on my list of things to do, anyway

as my children would say....seriously? I usually arrive in the port city the day before the cruise so I have (gratefully) no email access, so I wouldn't get in anyway....better to be sitting at the terminal than anywhere else except on the ship..don't care why, I don't own any cruiselines!

thank you, op, an interesting question

...why are people so interested in putting things into little boxes....if you are not interesting in all things carnival....don't read/post here...geez

loved her under her old name and would sail her again

i have several pieces i purchased years ago and had framed (at a reasonable price at home)...i learned a lot about the copying process, and used the free prints to learn how to mat and frame at home

the selection has become very limited, i have not seen any african-american artists represented in years, so i no longer attend art auctions...did learn a lot about the copying process, but never ever drink the "champayne" stuff...if i want an original, i attend art galleries at home and meet the artist...more fun that way (less expensive, also...one artist did the framing for me, while showing me how to do it)!

totally agree...except...I don't do laundry on vacation!

newbies...a notebook or folder for your daily papers (fun to look at the "sales" after lyou get home), nightlight, bubble wrap for those breakables you don't plan to buy, clock, plastic bottle to take home that bon voyage liquor you didn't drink all of!

I didn't find cruisecritic until after my first cruise, still not sure if that was a good thing or not...

about 3-4 weeks

S m h!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

have Never been served cold food on a carnival cruise and totally agree with NCTribe fan about watching the servers and their trying to do their jobs...I give them a lot of credit, support, and the extra tip

Yay..common sense prevails....you are not entitled to anything beyond the carriage contract!

no you cannot, just because they have the same "parent company", doesn't mean it is the same company, sorry

maybe carnival should have NO VIFP, that would settle this, won't it?

let me see, I came to cc when people complained about the butter....its always something...yawn, y'all don't own nuthin'...when you do, do what you want!

none of you people own carnival...if you are so distressed about what you don't get....go elsewhere...more lobster for me..buh-bye (I never cruise for the "benefits...)

really am sick of you entitled people who like to put others down....you know, those of us who cruise when we can get the time and the airfare because we don't live within thousands of miles of a cruise port...karma will getcha...meanwhile...back to planning my next 4 night cruise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never assume that the person who brought the order set up the tray...I would tip twice

I have always just printed them out on the thickest paper or card stock that I have, "laminated them" with clear packing tape, punched a hole in them and zip-tied them to my luggage. Simple, easy and we have never lost them.;)

that is almost exactly what we do....we use laminating sheets (I carry a couple for disembarkation and I throw a one hole mini-punch in my bag, too)...zip tie then and we are done!

does anyone think they build cruise terminals in "the hood"? c'mon people, think!

the rules are clear, please follow them...NO, your children cannot be a in a room by themselves...thank you.

we do YTD and have wondered can all items be brought at same time - appetizers, main course etc to avoid the long wait ? has anyone tried this?

That would NOT be acceptable to me.

thank you, thoroughly enjoyed your review although I could not identify most of beautiful food
