I'll be joining you next week!

Hello Lovelies, it's been years since I've sailed out of Miami. We have faster to the fun. What time would you recommend getting to the port for? This is for the Magic. TIA!

We did this class on Mardi Gras last year, but they only did one kind of pasta, it was a red sauce. We really enjoyed it.

Oh absolutely! I make sure to give them a good tip for each drink. A person I met at the spa on my last cruise told me to just walk up to the bar, she said she does it on every cruise and rarely has an issue. No harm in trying 🙂

I found this article https://www.cruisehive.com/carnival-cruise-ship-delayed-after-soot-discharge/114722

That person is pretty salty about others getting free drinks in a way they clearly don't approve. Sorry we're not all boy scouts mz-s! Haha, live a little, and lighten up 😜

Well they still served me as I was standing at the bar, all cruise long and I had DOU while playing in the casino. So some bartenders will do it, you just have to ask.

Last year on Mardi Gras I was able to just walk up to the casino bar and get my free drinks, I did it all cruise long and no one said otherwise to me. I know it probably greatly depends on the bartenders but it's worth a shot to try. Worst they can say is no.

Our favorite is aft extended balconies, but we've tried all different kinds and are happy with anything really lol We like to be in the aft, around deck 7, depending on the ship.

Don't miss Celestial Strings in Grand Central!

I think they may do that as well, or something similar. We book the steakhouse on the first night for every single cruise, we've always got the free wine.

Just wondering if Magic is still doing the free bottle of wine in the steakhouse on the first night? Someone on reddit mentioned that they were on Panorama a few weeks ago and were told they no longer did the free wine. Can anyone confirm please? Thanks!

Is the pool right there, free and open to anyone? That'll be awesome, my kid will love that. Thanks for the San Juan tip!

Cruising on Magic in December 2023, I'm just wondering if anyone has suggestions for things to do. I was thinking airplane beach would be cool to see in St. Maarten but it's probably really busy right? Are there any quiet beaches/hidden gems? Is exploring San Juan on foot with a five year old realistic? Can you walk to some of the forts? Do they have a trolly type system or anything for getting around? Any decent beaches there? We did an excursion last time we were at Amber Cove, so I'm not familiar with the port really. Is there a beach that's walkable? We're just looking for anything family friendly that won't cost a lot. Any tips would be helpful, thanks so much!
