Nothing like being prepared. 😁

Did you book yourself or use a TA? if you used a TA you will have to go through them. Otherwise, you'll have to call the call center.

I'm here for the duration. Really looking forward to this one! Doing a B2B on her in April. 😎

Yep, Tyler got his "wings" not long after this cruise.

When we were there in April the sound system really sucked, couldn't understand a word that they were saying. Is it better now?

Wow! a virtual B2B on the Mardi Gras. Just got off Pirate's review and am jumping onto yours. Great start so far!

Thanks for trying. He's probably met hundreds of "Jeff's" and hundreds of Patti's" in his career. We sailed with him on the Splendor to Hawaii, Panorama, and the Mardi Gras. I probably should have attached this latest picture from the Mardi Gras.

Thanks for taking us along for the ride! So, do you prefer doing live reviews, or after the fact ones? 😎

We always seem to just miss each other! One of these days......

Patti and I can't do cruises of "just" 7 days anymore.

I believe so. The last time we had a ship change, (Radiance to Miracle), we got our assignments on a Saturday.

We are also still waiting for our new room assignments. A little miffed at the process this time. In the past when bookings were changed from one ship to another, new bookings were not taken until everyone's new assignments were done. Now with bookings being open since last Monday, if there are any issues with the cabin(s) you have been assigned, you will have less choices in getting those issues resolved. We have had three previous cruises where ship changes were involved, and each time we had issues with what we were assigned. These issues were able to be corrected before new bookings were allowed to be taken.

The new venues. We're doing a B2B on her in April. Tell Lee that Jeff and Patti from New Jersey said hello. Thanks! 😎

Okay, thanks. Enjoy the rest of your cruise! 😎

Keeping a low profile? Where's the pics? 😁

Hey Blerk! Are you aboard the Celebration now? 😎

We are in the same boat Karry. We are booked on a B2B in September in a bowling alley balcony which is now a different category on the Venezia. Anxious to see what we are assigned. 😎

Wasn't expecting this review. I'm along for the ride! 😁

Actually no announcement is needed as bookings for the whole summer are already available! 😎

I don't know if stoked is the word, but we'll try her out. She does have some longer itineraries in the winter that interest us, and being that NYC is our home port it is convenient. 😎

It's now official. 2023 Carnival Magic sailings from NYC have been transferred to the Carnival Venezia. I expect that the next announcement will be that the Magic will be sailing from Norfolk May through October. 😎

So it is now official as we got the email as well. It is a Vista Class ship built in 2019. They will start converting her in December. We aren't happy as the Vista Class isn't a favourite of ours, especially since it doesn't have the Havana area. We'll probably still go on our B2B in September, just hope we are given our bowling alley balcony like we had booked on the Magic. 😎

Also at many of the bars. 😎

When we were on the Mardi Gras they had 3 Comedy Showcases in the main theater. You still had to line up 45 minutes before if you wanted a good seat. 😎

We seem to book more on the port side, no rhyme or reason. Maybe we like even numbers. 😁
