WOWZA ! This was really deep .I now have to go to Walmart just to find out what the meaning of life is.

Drinks in the souvenir cups are over $20 somewhere around $23-$24 if I remember correctly.

Yes but it still doesn't mean that's your outcome. All you can do is FAFO. It is what is . Prepare for the worst and hope for the best... Good luck.

I didn't look for it in Sept when we were in grand Cayman the mission on that trip was white Hennessy which we found and it was a couple bucks cheaper than the ship which didn't have any at all.I looked for it before then.and was told they shut down at a couple of liquor stores. So I don't know. It could be old stock or somebody figured out how to make a buck . I will be back next month and look I wanted a couple bottles for gag gifts. The alcoholics I give it to will drink anything anyway.if I find any .the wife wants more white Hennessy so that's what we will be doing in port.do while she asks for the Hennessy I will look for BBD rum.

Rules were made to be broken. We are talking Carnival after all. Carry on.

Yes for when you get to the Caribbean. That first day and last day are probably going to be a tad chilly. I know it was when we cruised in November.

I don't drink alcohol anymore and I noticed that also in September. The few times I went to the bar to see what soft / energy drinks they had.

It is What I did in September. Go to the kiosk and load your gift card(s) then go play the slots. I'm doing that also on horizon in a few months with the 3 gift cards from the Newegg deal. Hopefully horizon has a smoke free casino area.

The only quiet place I remember was our cabin..we spent a lot of time there. We stepped out on to serenity for a minute it was like we stepped into a blast furnace as we walked through that door we turned around and made for the hills.

We are on Horizon in April. My offer was move to a deck 4 Oceanview from lido deck inside for an upcharge. I don't remember how much. I already paid extra to be on lido deck. We were in a deck 4 Oceanview on a 6 day on Paradise but I paid less than $500 for the entire cruise for the wife and I. The Horizon I paid full price.but still about $400 less than it is now.

Carnival Paradise in September .6 day out of Tampa . We went to key West,grand Cayman and Montego bay. The fun times were put in the cabin on the first night for the next day ,after that I guess you had to hunt them down. I used the Hub app the whole cruise .it was not accurate but close enough . The white Hennessy sale was posted for several times and days for the cruise but when we went they were all out and didn't have the sale.we checked one other time with no results since they couldn't tell us if they were going to have any or not. Later my wife got some on Grand Cayman a few bucks cheaper than it would have been onboard anyway.

It doesn't exist anymore.

Not working. They might be having issues in Cleveland.

Mine and my wife's opinion also. Carnivals food is hit or miss. Try it and see. On our cruise last september the food on the first full day was as salty as it could be all day then after that the rest of the cruise it was bland .they must have used up all the salt . Seafood shack when we had it on Liberty was a once and done.It was greasy as greasy could get and we like fried food. We will try it on Horizon in April . It could be a once and done too.

I used the carnival master card for mine. They emailed me thinking it was a fraudulent charge I guess since it was for 3 cards.i had to inform the bank I was actually making the purchase then they sent my emails with the cards. Took a little bit but AARP took 3 weeks and several calls to get 2 $500 cards last year. I have bought from Newegg before with no issues.

I got 3 .it took over an hour.

The only time I catch COVID is when I read about it here.. my wife thought she had it when we got off the Paradise last September 2 home tests and a trip to be tested at the VA hospital and she wound up with a sinus infection.. I guess I won't be getting that life insurance and half her military retirement after all. I had to laugh at her apparently she reads cruise critic too.

I was on the Paradise in September .the fridge kept my water cold enough to suit me. It's probably going to be hit or miss like anything else. If the fridge doesn't suit you I guess you can bribe the cabin Stewart into bringing you ice. If you don't drink room temperature beer you are not a true alcoholic anyway.. I'm sure the alcoholics will chime in and correct me.

Thank you. I think I have 3 cards coming.

If it's a must have just bring it. You can't depend on Carnival to have it. Carnival ran out of hot sauce at the blue iguana condiment bar on day 3 of a six day cruise. So ,what can I say. Bacon only on the first morning. I could go on and on. We will be on Horizon in April we will be prepared. ( no ,I'm not bringing bacon . Hot sauce yes ,Sriracha yes. Some Tony C probably.Monster ultra absolutely .)More than likely our last cruise anyway.my wife has fallen out of love with it and that is A okay with me.

I know how you feel. I bought 4 of those souvenir cups they walk around the pool for my wife that was over $100 after I looked at the bill. Only consolation was I used OBC to pay for it..

We made gold last September and it didn't change our lives at the very least and certainly not for the better. I purchased water so the "free" water got left behind and we didn't get our 2 "free" drinks since we don't drink and didn't think about it . I guess we could have gotten 2 ginger ales or something. We did pickup the pins but I couldn't tell you what they look like. The guy handed them to my wife and she probably doesn't even know where they are at ..I bought 100+ shares of stock for the OBC but since we did 6 night cruises it was only $50. As soon as the stock price hits my acceptable selling point it's history too.

I doubt An adults only cruise line like VV would be exempt from spring break rowdiness. We did Celebrity out of San Juan second week of April some years back that was peaceful. I unwittingly have a cruise booked for the second week of April myself .I never thought about spring break out of Miami.

I guess it depends on the ship but I was on Paradise last Sept they didn't have much of anything diet or sugar free at the bars . I will make sure I bring my monster white next cruise.

No it can be anything. I got the card 3 months ago and made a large purchase of batteries for my golf cart and easily met the $500 .. I received the ,$200 credit. After that with the Carnival price increases I went ahead and paid my cruise and gratuities off since my wife finally decided she did want to cruise again. So it does not have to be carnival related.
