Is check-in still 14 days prior to sailing?

Best way and price to get from MCO to port Canaveral.
ober134 replied to dolphfan's topic in Florida Departures
I would be cautious depending on Uber. Upon return in April Uber cost was $160 PC to MCO surge cost. How soon is your cruise; we booked last minute and many transport shuttle companies were full and could not accept our request. We stayed night prior near MCO and used hotel service to go back to airport in the morning and used Carnival shuttle. It worked out OK for us. -
I've never gotten a casino offer. Do spend time daily , but not necessarily a bunch of .money. How much does one need to spend?

Frequent cruiser and slightly embarrassed to not know: is there any advantage to pre paying? It will get added to S&S at end of cruise regardless. We've done it both ways. But I'm wondering why I should front the cash....

I usually buy carnivals insurance ever since we had travel interruption due to Hurricane Matthew. I didn't have it on that trip and had to pay $$$$ out of pocket for new last minute flights. So right now we have 3 cruises (2 Carnival and 1 Royal) booked and one land vacay booked in the next 6 months (the joy of recent retirement). I'm considering an annual policy with Allianz. Any opinions on this company vs AON?

Personally for me, FTTF never seemed worth the cost. To each their own

Allstate gift cards appear to be back in stock today

I will turn platinum on my next cruise.... So technically I'm still Gold at this moment. Cruise manager does not reflect the "bonus" 2 additional days. PVP didn't seem to know. No biggie either way, just wondering if any others on here may know
-
ditto - 2 future bookings not showing and unable to Add to cruise manager. I believe I saw same thing mentioned a week or 2 ago on here. as stated above - probably a software glitch

Applying e-gift cards to room before you leave?
ober134 replied to gazingm42's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
personally I hate wasting time waiting at Guest services... and those kiosks - forget about it. My next cruise I'll be platinum, do my opinion may change. -

ober134 replied to gazingm42's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
In the past I used gift cards to buy cruise cash. I don't see why you couldn't use e-card as well. -
Will we have time to get to the airport for a 10:40am flight?
ober134 replied to Cpamomma's topic in East Coast Departures
As a follow up question - what is a recommended time for a flight out of BOS? -
I'm also exploring this port. We booked "late" and all ship Acadia excursions are sold out .... so I saw the option for the free public transit "Island explorer".... has anyone done this? It sounds like a viable option. Just have to plan stops and timing. any suggestions welcome. thank you

We are fairly frequent Carnival cruisers and know the brand and the ins/outs.... However, we just booked a NE/Canada cruise on Voyager because of the itinerary. We have sailed Royal a couple times, but not for a while. We have only 90 days; I know that seems like a lot, but I'm planner and usually have cruises book out a year or more. any hints or suggestions Please??!! These are all new ports for us. - when do we "check-in" - all excursions for Acadia are booked, any alternate suggestions. pretty bummed but didn't know this until after we booked. Is this a tender port? - dining suggestions welcome - we will fly into Boston 2 days prior... we've been to Boston before and love the city - hotel recommendations? - Sydney NS - no clue what to do here. none of the excursions jumped out to me - how does MTD work? do ppl like it? We love this option on Carnival Thanks in Advance for any tips etc.

Do you know any adult that got an unvaccinated exemption?
ober134 replied to exm's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Correct, and those booked together may also be subjected to vaccine rules of the ports visited. -

If you read the Papal statement on the history of the vaccine development, it is quite informative. And explains the position of The Catholic Church. The vaccine does not contain fetal tissue.- 90 replies

I believe the Pope encouraged people to get vaccinated -
Carnival Elation - your thoughts on this ship?
ober134 replied to codeyell0's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Sailed Elation in April. Sea was calm entire cruise and was one of smoothest cruises we've had. Food was good. Staff was great. We aren't in to all the crazy activities, so we got just what we expected - a nice and relaxing vacation. I would do it again without hesitation. -
As I recall... On the payment tab, select gift card and it asks for security code and amount you want to apply. So yes, I'm fairly certain you can split it up on multiple bookings
-
Frequent purchaser of Carnival cards... Also Allstate customer with A LOT of points. But considering changing insurers. Will I be able to keep the account and points? Or should I buy a bunch of cards first?
-
Same with Elation in April.... Only time we had to wait was first night in MDR. Other than that, happy and accommodating crew.
