A tleast it's not the grey water or black water pipe.

I'd recommend you try and dig up their account.

Everyone is assigned a VIFP # when they cruise.

It's best for you to dig up their old # then attach it to their future sailing under the cruise manager. It would save a lot of headaches.

I think there's a way you can look up VIFP # if you know certain details like birthdates etc.

Hmmmm.......I’ve been stalking the website/my account like 10x a day, and still not available for my Breeze March 2019 cruise. I wonder why? This will be my first time back on Carnival since 2007, and I really want to snag it as an anniversary surprise for my hubby, as he HATES embarkation. Once on the ship he’s fine, but he detests long lines, and gets VERY grumpy. [emoji51]

Odd, it's available for the freedom march 2019 now.

They lined us up outside in october and unfortunately we were in the section where it was very enclosed and HOT!

I did this exactly for my wife and it was $49 on board for the upgrade for a 7 days cruise

 

My offer: an interior room on the Panorama Deck - Forward (Deck 10) for $10 total. It looks closer to the action, but I am worried about seasickness.

 

Help!

Make sure you're not under the gym, I had a cabin on deck 10 and was under the treadmill. Never again.

Our walls and ceiling vibrated every day for 7 days exactly @ 6AM in the morning. (There was a heavy runner).

Can the recent cruisers comment on which night was elegant night? If it’s the 2nd night (Boston) docking at 2 and leaving at 10pm, would be a hard choice. Visit the city more or be back for supper.

When you purchase it from the fun shop on the website, it will let you pick who it is for and then it will ask you for a credit card, it won't be charged to the room.

Would be nice if they added a level between gold and platinum, maybe no priority boarding/party but maybe free laundry?

Since most of our devices today that needs power is charged via USB.

I'd just get this.

It's a 6 port usb. You can get an euro plug adapter too and plug it into the 240v plug on the ship and leave the other 120 free for normal use.

Any tips on what to do with left over CAD ?

I was going to take out like $200 CAD for incidentals but I plan on using my CC for most of the purchases.

This is not really different then signing the marriage certificate after or before the fact but the "big show" is on a different date/time?

I wouldn't worry about it.

2 questions if anyone has first hands experience.

We'll be department from our hotel in queens (Maspeth if that helps) to Manhattan cruise port, we'd like to be there by 9 or 9:30am on a Saturday at the latest. What time will we need to depart queens to get there at the desired time. We'll be using uberblack.

Also, will there be porters around the Manhattan cruise port around that time to take your luggage for Carnival Sunshine?

We just want to drop the bags off then go touring.

Thank you.

Well it will get you to the buffet quicker! On a side note, when in Progreso, do yourself a favor and stay on the ship. Very little to see and tons of merchants that won't stop bothering you. Of course these are my opinions and expect to be bashed by my fellow CC users.

I agree, Progresso is only worth it if you want to go to chichen itza

As for FTTF, it's worth it if you want to arrive on the ship as soon as you are able to board then yes. If you are more leisurely in your boarding time then probably not.

We were on the Sunshine last week and they did breakfast, but not brunch in the dining room on port days. Service ended by 9:00 or 9:30am

Thank you for your first hand feedback.

As the title stated, the sunshine dock in boston @ 2PM, does carnival offer "sea day brunch" or any MDR dining for breakfast that day?

While these frequently do make it through security, these are surge protected, and are not allowed. Whether or not you get it past security, know that even if your Belkin surge protector is in perfect condition, and operating normally, and you are present when it is in use, that an accidental ground anywhere else on the ship, outside of your control, can cause the semi-conductors in the surge protector to go into thermal run-away and cause a fire very quickly. Also, the more times the surge protector is subjected to shipboard wiring (possibility of reverse voltage on the semi-conductors), the quicker the semi-conductors will fail, even in their normal mode, and fail to protect your electronics.

 

Further, know that none of the ship's electronics, from the POS registers, to the computer servers, to the myriad desktop computers, to the navigation equipment, to the engine room automation that keeps the lights lit and the propellers turning, are protected by surge protectors, as they are not needed. Ships do not experience the voltage surges that affect homes and businesses ashore.

I'm not going to get into an argument in a ship's wiring with you but it's fool hardy to think that everything on a ship is one giant circuit, your house has many circuits, one would think a sophisticated cruise ship is a giant serial circuit? :confused:

I've brought this onto every single carnival cruise I have been on with no problem.

MDR on embarkation will be closed until dinner time. Your best bet is Lido buffet or guys' burger or the burrito place.

Thanks for your great review.

You've given us many ideas for our trip in 3 weeks!

Could you recall if it's easy or possible to exit the NYC cruise terminal to visit the intrepid pre cruise?

From google maps it looks like the drop off is on the 2nd floor? We just wanted to drop off luggage then visit the intrepid before boarding the ship.

I started my online check-in tonight and saw that the earliest we can check-in was 2:30. :( If we get there around noon or 1, will they allow us to check-in earlier, or will we just be sitting there waiting to be allowed to check-in? If we can't show up until 2:30, any suggestions as to what to do between when we have to check out of the hotel and before we can board the ship?

 

Also, right now, we have a balcony cabin on deck 4. It looks like there is a cabin on deck 8, that is available. Would it be worth the extra money (to go from an 8A to an 8E?) How is deck 4, overall?

To be honest with you, after 1:30Pm, the mad crush is over and it's pretty much stroll right into the ship.

This is with a huge caveat that there are no delays of unloading previous cruise.

Example: In our past 5 cruises, we got to the port around 1, by the time we parked etc, and drop off luggage with the porters and strolled right onto the ship 45 min after.

It’s still there. Not sure about it being lunch only though.

You can always let her catch up at the next port ?
