You should know when you get there - I think only 2 berths there and the entrance appears to be the same. We’re walking over - hopefully before it rains.

Hi there! Does anyone know which pier we are supposed to go to when we arrive at the cruise terminal?

Hi Betty - we're coming from Walsenburg, CO.

We'll be in a day or two early and hope to see a few shows, 

I don't think anyone has setup a Meet & Greet here or on the FB group, but I'll recheck,

Cheers, 
Todd

A handy bit of information if you are 50+ and a member of AARP. (and if you are 50+ but NOT a member of AARP the annual membership is usually $16/yr, but currently on sale for $12/yr:

 

AARP sells Carnival Cruise Gift Cards that can be purchased at a 10% discount. They come in $500 and $100 value, so they cost $450 and $90 respectively. As opposed to some other cruise lines that only let you use gift cards for your initial down payment and nothing else, or only OBC, there does not seem to be any limitation to what you can use this on. 

 

We splurged a bit on this sailing with a wraparound Premium Vista balcony in the Terrazzo Carnivale section, and plan to purchase the Cheers Beverage packages (celebrating a big birthday and a retirement), so getting 10% off makes a nice balance.

I second AARP - this is the first cruise where everything was paid for with the gift cards. We did the Legend in Sept and it was almost the same except for the original deposit. 

Cheers, 

Todd
