GROUCHPUSS

I am Happy to report that after a few trip to GS This issue has been resolved! YAY! Everything is back!

Just also found out that a friend on mine stayed on for the 7 and signed up for bottomless bubbles for the 7 day and the bubly water is not included in the Bottomless Bubbles package like it should be?

I am still confused, so they had them to purchase but not offered as part of cheers, or they did not have them?  I am talking on day two.

On the 1st day everything that should have been included in you cheer's package was included. On the second day a many items that should been included were only 25% off, like Propel drinks and Starbucks Frappuccino plus other items you could only purchase at a 25% discount with cheer's

completely confused on the OP's post, Shoff's list looks fine to me.

So I am saying what was promised is not being delivered the cut a lot of the products out of that list.

What’s a “pre bottled” drink? I know what a bottled drink is, but I’m puzzled what the “pre” means in this context given that “pre” means “before.”’

I could have used just bottle I guess. My meaning just any drink that is sealed and not hand made or mixed by someone

None of this is included any on the Panorama as of right now




Naked Mighty Mango
Naked Strawberry Banana
Half Naked Lively Greens
Half Naked Peach with Ginger
Pure Leaf Honey Green Tea+
Pure Leaf Tea & Lemonade+
Pure Leaf Unsweetened Black Tea+
Pure Leaf Sweet Tea
Propel Electrolyte Water+
Propel Strawberry Raspberry+
Propel Peach Mango+
Starbucks Frappuccino+
 

Just off the 3 Day Panorama Inaugural, I enjoyed the ship, best in it class as far as I am concerned. 
On to cheer's.

This is the 1st ship with the new Pepsi line up and on the 1st day all was great you could order any Non-Alcoholic pre bottled drinks you wanted as in the large Starbucks coffee drinks, propel waters and other pre bottled drinks from the coffee shop. But on the second day that all came to a halt and a lot of the new products where no longer included and Cheer's now had a very limited selection of what was included in the pre bottle drink category, anything that was not now included was 25% off. Please don't ask what was and was not included as I did not ask about every product on every shelf at the coffee shop. ALSO THIS DID NOT APPLY TO ANY ALCOHOLIC OR ANY HAND MADE DRINKS ON THE SHIP OR IN THE COFFEE SHOP! Only applied to some of the brilliant new line up of products that come with the Pepsi change over. Also NOTHING WILL CHANGE UNTIL THE SHIPS GET PEPSI. So please don't say I just came off X ship and I could buy anything I wanted on Cheer's because the only ship that has Pepsi is the Panorama until closer to the 1st of the year. This not a complaint I still got my monies worth on cheer's but I was disappointing that everything will not be included as before with the Coke line up.

Maybe Carnival will rethink this before the full switch over but for now this is the way it is on the Panorama.

since when does the pizza have beer, my wife always waited in line while I got beer at the bar.

Just started less than a year ago. There is no 4 am bar anymore on any ship that sails out of the US(used to be the bar closest to the pizza). The Casino bar is now the last bar open I have seen it close as early as 1:40 am and as late as around 3 am. The casino tells the bar when to close. You can get room service drinks until 4am, but you can not use cheers to pay for the drinks from room service. I am one who stays up til the last bar closes every night and go on several cruises a year, so I know this to be true. Also there is no and has never been a 24hr bar on a Carnival ship during a normal sailing. Maybe in the 80's or on a charter but not on a public sailing.

Just go mine back today. Passport office received my Doc's on 7-19-19 and I got Passport in my mailbox on 8-23-19 and I did not do expedited service.

Has anyone recently renewed their passport? If so how long did it take? Did you expedite it? 

I find it to be mixed, sometimes I could get a water with a drink and sometimes not. I tried to get a spiked coffee and a monster energy drink at the same time and had to wait at the 5 minutes at the coffee shop on the Breeze 2 weeks ago. While at the casino bar never had an issue getting a bottle of water with a drink.

3rd cruise coming up in March.  Vista out of Galveston.  On our prior two cruises(both on dream), we never made it to the piano bar.  Tell me about the acts on Vista in the piano bar, what can I expect.  What happens.  Everyone says how much fun it is?  fill me in

You will have Christine Hetfield. She is pretty good, I think.

Carnival to charge for all room service!

Starting mid January.

Price guarantee does not work with group space.

Look for TA's with group space. Their Balcony's are cheaper than Carnivals inside cabins. Plus some have $200.00obc. TA's Balcony's are over a $1000.00 cheaper than Carnival right now, if you can find one that still has any group space left for the 6-3-20 sailings. I know of a few people still have some left for that price.

Just added to my Hilton hhonors card also

I assume this wont work with the delta amex?

Worked with mine, at least I was able to add it to my card deals by using the link.

Sounds great but lets see if it really happens.

I made a 10:10am flight out of FLL and my ship sailed from Miami,  I am Diamond and had #1 tags, did not do self assist. I also have Global Entry and TSA Pre check. I used Uber for my ride to the Airport, the lines were short at FLL. FLL has new TSA security area now that just opened I think it has more scanners now. Now, if I did not get free stand by on Southwest I never would have tried it, but I was at the airport by 8:50am and through security by 9:10am and the ship was the Horizon.

Sorry don't know yet.

I get a Mans cut all the time, out of like 14 cuts I have on a ship I have had 1 that I was just a little unhappy with and it was not that bad just a little longer on top and did not ever have a chance to go back to get it fixed. I always try to get a cut on the ship! 

86 on Carnival with 526 days

Hello there,

 

Currently, Carnival isn't scheduling the Piano Bar Entertainers further than 6 months out.  It's apparently a change from before, so it'll take a little longer to see who is entertaining on each ship.  Should be a few months until the June schedule trickles out.

 

I noticed in your earlier post you were looking for James Quigley.  It was just announced today on the Piano Bar Barians group on that other page that he will be an entertainer on the Valor on August 31 sailing with the Piano Bar Barians 4.5 group cruise.  He'll be one of three PBEs on board, and if you're a piano bar fan it is a blast!

We still have to get at least 16 cabins pre booked before this is a sure thing. Plus if you do not book within our group you may not see much of James Q.  He will be doing most of our private times, if this all pans out in the next few days. I know this to be fact as I am the group leader.

I have gotten off the ship in New Orleans, Long Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Port Canaveral. Multiple times in New Orleans and Long Beach.

He was on the Magic last week 3-3-18
