I am packing for my cruise tomorrow. Is there a size or weight limit on suitcases?
Thanks!

I will be sailing on the Enchantment of the Seas soon. I will want to be able to call and check on my kids once a day. Would it be cheaper to use the room phone or my Verizon cell?
I don't want to use any data. I just want to call and talk to my kids for a few minutes a day.
Thanks!

Thank you for all your responses.
I got back my full deposit without penalty.It was this past July we went. I'm not sure how to find out what sale it was.
I will just book early saver this time so I can price match.
Now to decide between Liberty or Fascination. :)

Sorry I wasn't very clear.
Last year I booked in February for a June cruise with a reduced deposit.
In March the June cruise went on sale so I asked ta to get me price adjustment. She said I could not get a price adjustment since I wasn't early saver. I then cancelled the June cruise and booked same boat just different date in July.
TA said carnival might come back and charge me the June price since I booked same boat for July.
Was that true? Or was she just not wanting to lose commission?
I was before final payment so not sure why I didn't get a price adjustment or offer up upgrade???
Thanks!

How do you get a price drop before final payment if your not booked early saver?*
My TA told me last year I couldn't do that. So I said I wanted to cancel cruise and rebook same cruise on different day. She said carnival might come back and charge me what first cruise was going to be since I booked same itinerary.*
Did TA make that up?
I was booked instant saver I think.*
I'm trying to decide whether to book again with her or not.
As of right now early saver is cheapest rate.

If you're at all prone to motion sickness, book mid-ship on a lower deck.Have a look at the deck plans. A category 4B may be midship on one deck but forward and aft on the next deck up, because midship is more popular.
I don't particularly like aft. I don't think easy access to the buffet or pool is something I want. I stuff myself enough as it is!
And there most definitely is more motion in the bow. Whether or not that is an issue depends on the person. Some people like it.
I don't really understand the question, though. Where you book has nothing to do with whether prices might drop. Except, say, you book a porthole cabin and there are only 12 of them on the entire ship. They'll book up, so Carnival has no incentive to drop the price on them.
Price drops have everything to do with how the cruise is selling and which categories are selling. If you happen to book at a really good price and the sailing is selling well, there may be no price drops.
Also remember that you CAN get any price drop for which you qualify up til final payment under any fare. You don't have to book ES. That only gives you price drops between final payment and sailing. I rarely book ES, so I simply stop checking fares once I make final payment. :D

I've read that when you book early saver that you can get price drops only if that specific room type is still available.
So would I be better off booking forward, mid, or aft? (inside room)
Or does that matter for price drops?
Also we are looking at June or July. Is either month more likely to have a price drop?
Thank you in advance.

Thanks for the replies. We are driving to the port.
My big suitcase is about 3 feet tall and maybe a little over a foot wide.
Will that fit in the scanner?
