Cost of the private tours looked like it was $400-$800 for two people... hoping to get to get to Mermaid Chair for cheaper than that! Might need to reconsider our options. Or roll the dice and see if someone is willing to drive us out there and then take us back, I wanted to go to Brewers Bay Beach too... maybe start by going to Brewers Beach and then see if we can get to Mermaid's Chair? Isn't that near a hotel that people would want to go to and from?

Yes, sorry, I didn't mean this Saturday, just that it DST starts the day after cruise starts. Ok, well I will just make sure our phones update to the updated ship time on March 10th.

Our cruise starts on Saturday, Daylight Savings time springs forward an hour, do the ships also spring forward at that time? It's at least a day at sea, but messes even more with knowing what time it is on the islands we visit.

Will they go to Mermaids Chair and are all those places they load up large groups or you can go with just your group?

Anyone been to Lindquist Beach? Did you take a taxi there and is there good snorkeling there, or just a sandy beach?

Anyone just take a taxi and do the Zip line on their own? Did you make prior reservation or walk up? Is it worth it?

Is there a timeline when Carnival will depart from Fort Lauderdale?

Is it possible to catch a taxi from any spot you go, wanting to do a few things off the beaten path, so I'm hoping we can just jump to different beaches, different shops and spots.

I'm hoping for a bottle.. Best case scenario it's as many as I can pack! 🙂

My wife and I like to see more of the island and visit a few beaches, maybe David's Hole and then back into town for Gulmhors for a bottle to bring home later... are taxi's available at each of these stops? A private tour is wasted on the two of us, but we want to visit a few places and stay longer if needed only.

Random Wind... work for a pick up from a Carnival Cruise? How's the snorkel stops?

What is typical cost of that restaurant?

Yeah the Gulf of Mexico looks like rain and storms for the next few days back to Florida. Are you back in Miami on Saturday or Sunday?

Isn't this true only for Brunch, and they are available on Lido deck?

Sorry to ask again, but just curious if you've seen Whiskey- Bourbon selection at the bars?

Our flight out in March got moved from 12:25PM to 4PM... so now we're trying to decide how much time we should stay on the ship until leaving for the airport. If everyone is off before 9:30 that still gets us to the airport by 10:30... which leaves the issue of what to do with bags... Anyone ever brought their bags with them somewhere for the day and actually enjoyed an area of Miami until your flight? Anyone ever done the Carnival excursion of going to South Beach for a few hours?

Might be at the Alchemy or Piano Bar? Maybe Casino? I haven't been on the Magic for a while, so thanks!

Catching up on all your adventures, but is there any bar that has a good Bourbon selection? EH Taylor, Blantons, etc?

Is there an Arcade on this ship, and if so can someone take pictures of what the games are?

Nice.. same ports as my trip in January. Anyone ever having any luck with the bartender not opening the beer so you can have it later?

What are the ports you visit this week? Did you buy the Cheers package or just using your OBC and cash?

Looks like the Playabachata resort is within walking distance from Amber Cove. Has anyone just paid for a room for a night to get access to the resort and just walk over? Carnival has an excursion per person for this, but I'm more interested in going over when I want on my own. Thoughts?

What did you end up spending all the OBC on?

Why would I only get the lower amount? I have not submitted for the $100 yet.

I have a $600 OBC from a cruise canceled during Covid. First time back on a cruise sice booking the 2021 cruise. I have 200 shares of Carnival, can I get an addtional $100 OBC with my shares?
