A mom, two sons and a service dog tackle the Conquest
Momma1980 replied to momof3cruisers's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I’m truly glad that your dog is ok. I was imagining the worst case scenario for him. -
A mom, two sons and a service dog tackle the Conquest
Momma1980 replied to momof3cruisers's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Are you asking what could have been done to prepare the pup? If so, I could think of multitudes of things. Too many to list. The owner of the dog would know best how to prepare him for a trip away from home for multiple nights in strange circumstances. -

While I agree they were not being intentionally cruel, I still think it was cruel to neglect preparing this animal to be on a cruise ship for multiple nights away from land. Much could have been done. -

I feel it was cruel to take the dog on a cruise with no access to land without preparing it to potty on something familiar that they could have brought along. 28 HOURS without relieving itself?!?! -
Thanks for the review! I hear that Vista has a dry dock scheduled for January 2024. I hope this fixes the propulsion problem. We are sailing on her next year for the first time.

Hello! We will be sailing on Vista for the first time as well. From the reviews I have read, most people dislike the two things you have mentioned (closed-off atrium and horrible main theatre seating). You found the best theatre seats to be upstairs? Any particular area upstairs? How early did you get to the theatre to get your preferred seats? Thanks for the advice.

New to RCL, ?s about kids and in general
Momma1980 replied to cangelmd's topic in Royal Caribbean International
I’m new to Royal. Sailing on the Serenade of the Seas. I realize it is an older ship. Do we need to reserve shows on Serenade? -
That’s terrible! My Sister booked an adjoining cabin for an upcoming cruise on the Vista. I hope they don’t have a screaming child next to them! For what it’s worth, I previously sailed in an adjoining cabin on Mardi Gras ( only availability left) and didn’t hear anything from next door. Maybe soundproofing is better on the newer ships.

No Priority tender for clamshell rentals. -
Boarding later even though you have an early boarding slot
Momma1980 replied to amcankid's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
I’ve been late due to traffic driving to port and was able to board as soon as I got to port. -
I have played three times. Haven’t won anything!

Following! Thanks for posting:)

Went for Elite but ended up booking Mardi Gras
Momma1980 replied to Clearwater's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
We had a cabin on Mardi Gras with an adjoining room. I was concerned about noise but never heard anything from the cabin next door. -

Long Review of Celebration, March 26-April 2
Momma1980 replied to Astromaid's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
The Spirit class ships have the most unique and very private little spaces. Go all the way forward on deck 3. There is an interior promenade. Never anyone there. There are little tables and windows to look out! I have always been one of the only people in this area anytime I go. Check it out! -

Questions related to Carnival Mardi Gras
Momma1980 replied to jdkbrim's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Wide variety of seating options. Just make sure you arrive 35-40 minutes in advance of the show to get the seats that will best suit your daughter. Scope out the options early in the cruise so you will know where the best spot is. -
I feel your pain! I rely on my curling iron. Having been on Mardi Gras with a curling iron that didn’t work, I will now bring two options. Hate to pack the extra but it’s better than having nothing. Funny thing- the exact curling iron that DIDN’T work for me worked for another poster (on a different thread about this topic). Good luck!!!
-
Thanks for the reply. All we can do is hope for the best! 😂
-
Hello! Interestingly enough, I brought that same cheap curling iron and it didn’t work for me on the Mardi Gras. So the next time I’m Mardi Gras, I brought a different cheap travel iron and it did work. What did you have the Conair one plugged into? Just the outlet? Or into an adapter? Thanks:)
-
I have 25 Carnival cruises under my belt. I’ve never had a problem with curling iron on any ship other than the Mardi Gras. Based on other’s experiences, I brought an older model non-ceramic curling iron on my next Mardi Gras cruise and it worked. Hope this helps.

Booked multiple specialty dining reservations on Mardi Gras. Does my fee include gratuity for wait staff?
