I know that I can carry on 1 12 pack PP, but on a B2B can I carry on 2 per person?

We are doing our first B2B. it is our 25th anniversery. we had something blow up in our faces last week, so we want to be on a ship and no less than 5 days is minimum. The cheepest 5 day cruise I could find goes to the bahamas, so not that one. This is the second cheepest I could find. we are paying the april 5th one off first then adding the one before.

To tell you the truth, it is easy for us to fly to PC or Tampa for a cruise than to Miami, becuse my dad picks us up form the airport, and we have a place to stay and transportation to the port. Ann and I are planing to book the Valor on the B2B with you. I would recomend leaving more than 3 or 4 day's early and stop in Gatlenburg, TN. It is kind of like a small Orlando, and have dinner shows there as well. It is a little bit past the end of I-81.

My PVP did send me to the Steak House on the conquest once, but, he was the Cruise Director at the time, and we won it durring the Cruise Director's Port Talk....does that count?

won't go into the locks at all but there will be excursions that will and/or go to the locks

next thing you know, they will be charging $10 for a shot of Pepsi 🙂 J/K

Wouldn't do you any good, they are getting another CD and ED and this will be post dry dock

Honestly there was another incedent on the ship that I am keeping to myself, and using back doors to get it addressed. I also didn't disclose that I got Covid on the ship as well, I can't hold carnival responsable for that. +

Carnival Vista Dec 2-10 2023 I was on the Carnival Vista From dec 2=10 going to Aruba, Curasau, and Grand Turk. Embarcation was easy peasy, just delayed by 15-20 minuts due to Cost Gaurd Inspection. Lunch at the buffette was Typical Carnival stuff. There was some drips from the celing, you can tell that this ship was in despreate need of a dry dock. The first thing that went wrong, My father tried to order the bubbles package from a roaming wainter but he said that he couldn't do it, system wouldn't let anybody order it. Dad got a soda anyway and he siad that it would be remove when bubbles was added, it wasn't and on top of that he got dad for 2 more full priced sodas with auto gratuitiy, I told dad he should go to guest services but he said that karma will get him. My room was a 4J oddball cabin at the fron of the ship right next to the secret deck door, right under the bridge. First thing that went south was we were delayed departure. I love sail away and I was not going to get this becuse we would be at dinner. I know ship happens. The 7 nights that we had dinner in the MDR food was hot and cooked well, very happy with this. Went to Welcome abord show, Typical CD stuff, except no play list production, I asked the ED and he said that the Playlist cast just boarded the ship and would not be preforming till day 5 with Flix. I thought that was wierd and very disapointed about the playlist and wondering why they put a Brand new cast onboard when they are doing Dry dock in a few weeks. Not once did they do the full shows when they preformed and it was the "Concert" versions. The fun squad said that they were not used to working on a ship, and it was to rocky. Safty first I guess, but it was not very rocky at all, and I have done 15 cruises with carnival. Seaday Brunch was a cluster. wainted over an hourfor my food and was not even luke warm and my wifes was wrong. Complained to front desk and they didn't really care. I then complained to John Heald. A matra'd came to visit me at dinner and asked me to give a second chance, ok and food got to me a lot quicker but was luke warm again. They need to change the 1 free drink at seaday brunch for D/P to 1 drink at any bar any time. Night2 was quest night, and I got in line for the main show room, and the line goes all the way back to the Casino, and on top of that they were doing the Motown Atrium party. People were pushing to get though, butting in line, and I got my feet steped on multable times. The quest was suposed to start at 11 but the doors did not open till 1105 causing a big pinch point. I was very angry getting shoved and steped on. the Doors should have opened at least 15 minuts before. Ed said the room was not ready till 1102. Aruba, we went on ship excursion Kunokuoo Bus Tour. was fun, but did not get bottle water as avertised, but was offered to buy it at $1 a bottle, also did not go to the prestine beach as avertised full of sea weed and such wound up with a %10 refund. In Curasou went on the tour with Ostriges and it was fun. In Grand turk went on a small island tourn and it was enjoyable as well. Lets talk about Debark, witch was a cluster againwas told as Plat that I was to waint in the Main show room, but it was full so we wainted in the loby deck 4 they said when my number was called they would come and get us. never happened the CD did not make a ship announcement only one on the main room, this reall made me upset becuse how was I to know this when there was no room in the sowroom. Thanks to this cruise I am looking into other cruise lines/ Thank you for reading

I took a little bowl from the buffett and they were not busy, it was about 11:30, and I bet they would peperoni too.

You can go and get some from the pizza place, I did.

Welcome abord show, when the playlisters get to uptown Funk, thats when I finaly get into cruise mode.

Josh "Big Sexy Cruise Director" Waitzman on the Conquest. He did lectures on WWII and the Titanic tieing directly to Carnival Corp/Cruise Line. He is my PVP now and is invaluable with his knolege of all the ports and ships.

if it is just a week, it will probly be a member of the vista fun squad

When I was on the Paradise last year I went to my muster station first, they scaned my pass and let me go no demo required, I did not like that, I may be platium, but what if I was blue or red?

We would like your oppinion Jeff. We are planning and about to pull the trigger on Joining you and Patti on the first leg of your Valor Cruise, now here is the question, since it is our 25th Anniversery , we have decided to spend a 2nd week in Nola. Would you go a head and do a B2b, or a S2S on the Liberty, or the NCL Getaway? We have not ben on Liberty or Getaway.

warm her up for me, I'll be on dec 2

No problem, refuse to be serched, and be denied boarding with no refund, less money they have to pay for your food that you will eat.

I hope that you had travel insurance, if not, at least you get %50 back - Port fees and gratuities/Pre-paid items. Good luck and thank your Granddaughter for doing what she does. My wife was in the hospital in Aug, and got taken better care of by the Nurses than the actual doctors.

If you are staying at the same holiday inn that I did, and use there shuttle service then it sucks. when I was on the final cruise of ecsty I got off at 730 and didn't make it back to the hotel till 10am.

I will Jeff. We are planning to join you on the second leg of the Valor B2B witch will be on our actual 25th anniversery. We plan to either make it a B2B or S2S with the liberty, not sure yet.

Sorry about that, I thought that I did. just rushing to get it done before I forgot something

In the us it is, but in other parts of the world you don't need percriptions, you can walk into the pharmacy and buy what you need. they even had controled stuff that we would not be to get like lortab.

My Review of the Carnival Spirit October 22-28th I live in south central Kentucky, so we drove down to Mobile the day before, and had a hotel at Baymont Inn in Saraland, Al. The next morning after breackfast we went to the port at 9:30 we had an arrival time of 10:30. The [police officer staiond outside of the port directed us to park under the brige. the Porrt parking Garage was not accepting anyone till 10am. That was fine, I was early. at 10am we drove back around and by the time we got back to the officer he chaced us to the back of the line to enter from another road. Finaly we did so and was parked at 11:15. Worst embarkation ever for port parking. once we were parked it was almost smooth sailing until final scan to go to ship, when I was singled out. the lady that checked us in messed up and checked my wife in twice....grumble grumble. Finaly got onboard and quickly did Muster Drill, and went and got Lunch. at 1:oo cabins were ready. Went to sail away party, same old same old, to the right, woble, electric slide ymca, yada yada yada. went to the from and watch sail away fromfron of ship. Went to dinner, Old Menus, GOt Straberry Bisque, Sriploin steak, and WCMC. Went to Welcome abord show, with Erin the Cruise Director, and it was the same as usaula, and that was fine by me, but the playlisters were short 1 female dancer/singer/ Seaday 1 Breckfast Buffett Wave Morming Show, Port Talk, lunch, 2nd Lunch, snack, DInner, 80's pop to the max, 70's/motown atreum party Comedy. Cozmel Day, overcast to start. walked down to Del Mar Latino for the day just up from Royal Pier $40 all inclusive. left when starting drizzling at 1:30 made it to ship at 230, sail away was early at 3:30 no pier runners everyone was on ship early. dinner, and went to see 88 keys, decent show. I started to have a runny nose, and tickle in throght. Roatan: Got off roamed a little started to rain, and rained all day. Got back on and back off to get some niquil and a z-pack Just in case. Felt lick crap rest of day started z pack, Dinner/ Deal No Deal/ Love and marage. Sea Day 2 Seaday Brunch, slow service got most everyting wrong. slept most of Day, lido'd lunch and dinner when not sleeping. Sea Day 3 felt batter, Lido Breckfast Wave morning Show/ slept/lunch Q and Awsome/ slept dinner, The World works here show. Wish they would put in We are the world by Micheal Jackson in the show. Goodby atrium Party, Late Night Comedy, night night time. Morning debark was a brezze(plat) trip home was ok except when we got to I-24, standstill went alt route around. on a scale from 1-5 stars how would I rate the ship overall, IMHO 4,5 stars, taking off for Sea Day Brunch. I can not hold the crew responsable for weather/getting sick. crapy port staff. Would I sail Spirit againas l? Yes as long as it is not in Mobile and it is going where I want to go, yes. Thanks for reading
