We used it on our B2B in December and we loved it. We didn't send anything I would consider delicate but we sent shorts, shirts, underwear, socks, workout clothes, etc. everything came back nicely folded. I also love that it was same day service.
-
I made a reservation at Park N Cruise. It sounds convenient and I like the fact they have indoor parking.
-
The outdoor running track is a great place to run. I usually do 5-6 miles a day and the view is spectacular. I run early in the morning so I can see the sunrise.
-
Is the Park N Cruise the official Port of Galveston parking or are they a private company? I think the $65 for the week is very reasonable to park at the official parking I just want to know how convenient it is.
-
We are driving to Galveston next month for our cruise and we saw on their official website that you can park at the port for $65 for the week if you prepay. Has anyone done this? How convenient is the parking at this port?

We have had balcony rooms on deck 7, 8 and 10 before but we much prefer OV rooms on deck 1 or 2. We always request midship. We love being close to the water and less motion.
We never take the elevators so that isn't a problem. We love the extra exercise.
-
We were on the Glory in December for the first week they rolled out the new menus. They have changed the Warm Chocolate Melting Cake and we heard many people say they did not like the new cake.
-
It is all going to depend on how many children are on your cruise and how many register for Camp Carnival. On our recent B2B on the Glory there were so few kids that they automatically kept two age groups together.
It never hurts to ask when you go to Camp Carnival the first evening. The worse they can say is no.

Does anyone know if there are still sugar free deserts. We will be on the Liberty in a couple of weeks. My husband is diabetic and always looks forward to the deserts more than the main course.
We sailed on the Glory in December for the first week of the new menus. My mother-in-law is diabetic. The sugar free choices are not listed on the menu but she asked and they brought her out something every night that was sugar free. just ask your server.
-
Guess we will wait to find out what they leave for her. A gift is a gift plus we are on a cruise so what is not to be happy about!
She is most excited to have a sail and sign card the same color as her Nana and Pawpaw. The priorities of a 6 yr old:)
-
A Platinum cruiser who is traveling with children under 18 can get each child a $5 game credits. We just went to the casino and they will ask you the child's name and cabin number. The children do not have to be platinum.
-
We received the cooler tote bag in December. Very nice bag.
-
The current gift is the cooler tote bag which is very nice. We got 4 of them on our B2B in December.
The $5 in game tokens is nice. She has been getting those since we became Platinum.
We were just hoping for the possibility for a Platinum gift that a 6 yr old would like. We do realize it is a gift so we aren't complaining....just hoping!
-
Does Carnival offer a Platinum gift more suitable for a child? I looked and couldn't find an answer. I realize it is a gift but was just wondering.
-
We were on the B2B with the first week being the old menus and the second being the new. Overall our experience with the new dining was positive. We were a group of 5 (4 adults and 1 child). My mother-in-law is a diabetic and they took the sugar free option off of the new menu so every night she had to ask if they had something sugar free. A few nights all they had was ice cream.
My concern about the shared dishes is they don't seem to be prepared if only one person at the table wants the item. My husband is the only one of us who eats calamari but the serving was meant for several people. Also the pie a-la-mode was for the table and could not be ordered in a serving size for one. We were all family so it wasn't the thought of sharing from the same dish but more portion sizes for how many wanted the item.
I have to agree that the S'mores parfait was AMAZING and we are still talking about it. The best dessert we have ever had on a Carnival cruise. We also loved the Port of Call selections.

My granddaughter has been cruising since she was 3 yrs old (she is now 6) She loves Camp Carnival but eating dinner with them is one thing she does not enjoy. The dinner situation seems a bit chaotic. I thoroughly feel safe dropping her off at Camp Carnival but I am a bit nervous at dinner. She has gone to dinner twice and the second time they called me to come get her. She was so upset. She has never wanted to do dinner with them again.
We sail tomorrow for her 8th and 9th cruises so we will see if she will give it a try this time.
We love everything else about Camp Carnival!
-
We sail on Sunday. We fly to FL tomorrow. Our Platinum B2B cruise on the Glory. I finally finished packing today.
-
I called our CC company today to tell them we are traveling for two weeks and would be in various countries. I listed the islands we would be traveling to and I chuckled when she asked me which countries they were in. I guess not everyone is good in geography.
-
We also have a private tour booked. We are going to visit a school to drop odd supplies we have brought and so our 6 yr old granddaughter can see how their schools look.
We will also be visiting the monkeys as this is a favorite with our granddaughter.
-
Any recommendations for a good place to eat in Roatan. We want to experience local cuisine. We have a private tour with Victor Boden already booked. We will be visiting a local school as well so our granddaughter can give them the supplies she brought.
-
We used Boden tours last time we were in Roatan and we were told that they had never missed a ship yet. They are extremely professional. We are doing a private tour with them this time and we are extremely excited.
My FIL has health issues (bad back) and he was easily able to walk from The ship to meet our tour guide last time. Like others have said after the tour you will be dropped off as close as they can. You will still have to walk across the port complex to board the ship.
-
We sail on the Glory this Sunday. She was the first ship we ever sailed on back in 2005 and she will be the ship we reach Platinum on. We are looking forward to enjoying her 2.0 upgrades. We are doing a B2B so we will get twice as much fun!
-
We leave on Saturday to head to Florida. We board the Glory on Sunday for our B2B Platinum cruise. We are ready for warm weather and relaxation.
-
Since our upcoming cruise is our Platinum cruise we will be happy with whatever they give us. DH is hoping for the hat and I am hoping for the Tervis Tumbler.
We are doing a B2B, will they give us the same gift both weeks?
I feel sorry for the Slide Attendants...

I was just telling this same thing to my husband. Should make things interesting on the slides!
