13cruise13 Posted May 1, 2013 #826 Share Posted May 1, 2013 This thread has been awesome - OK - just for fun - has anyone stayed in 1203 - we know we are in the bottom in the front - but the price was fantastic :) Did anyone else get a message from Carnival saying don't come early to board? something about longer lines due to boat being in Belize? We sail May 4th!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalton51 Posted May 1, 2013 #827 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Got two questions does anyone know if the black jack band is still on the dream??? Also do they play Quest on the Dream ? Played it last year on Liberty it was a blast. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SE NC Posted May 2, 2013 #828 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Just off the Dream. Backjack band is still on board but not sure about the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emelvee Posted May 2, 2013 #829 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Blackjack Band will be on vacation from May 18 - July 6. No definitive word on whether or not they'll be back on Dream after that - I hope they will return, as I'm on Dream July 13. I figure it's a matter of them signing a new contract with Carnival, but I don't know how things work with the onboard entertainment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmoniz Posted May 2, 2013 #830 Share Posted May 2, 2013 UGH!! I hope they are back onboard after vacation! We're sailing Oct. 12th and we're really looking forward to a live band onboard!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue91652747 Posted May 2, 2013 #832 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I'm so sorry if this has been asked I tried searching for it but couldn't find it. We will be on the Dream June 15th and we are wondering about dining options other than the steak house and mdr. We would also like to find out if someone knows the times the other options close as I have read that some of the facilities close during the mdr times. Thanks in advance and Happy Cruisin'.

arpie05 Posted May 2, 2013 #836 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The Taste Bar is free which is little appetizers served before dinner. The Dream still has sushi. I believe it is in the lido area (from what I've read) and the comedy club brunch. I think that are the other 2.0 changes different from the link (which is nice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHARTWICK Posted May 9, 2013 #837 Share Posted May 9, 2013 "BBQ on Lanai is fantastic - great quesidilas!" Is this the same area as on the Magic where you can get fantastic slider burgers on sea days? I couldn't find this area on the Dream deck plans, but we loved it on the Magic! It was out on the Lanai deck next to some hot tubs - a small grill area, but they were fresh made in front of you with all of the toppings. SOOOO GOOD!

LHARTWICK Posted May 9, 2013 #838 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Aft Cabins below Lido Deck.....DON'T book them! The noise @ 1a, 5a, 6a....crazy and we could not sleep. It was so bad that Carnival Refunded 15% of cruise price and gave me 10% off my next cruise. Amen! We made the mistake of booking an OV Guarantee on Conquest a few years ago. We ended up right under the Lido deck. Worst cruise ever!!! We weren't offered a refund though. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpie05 Posted May 9, 2013 #839 Share Posted May 9, 2013 The Dream has a different menu than Breeze Fat Jimmy's on Breeze sounds much better!!! (I don't like coleslaw on my food - and I'm allergic anyway) I thought Magic Had Fat Jimmy's but I guess Spirit does - :o http://www.carnival.com/~/media/CCLUS/Images/pdf/FatJimmysCSideBBQMenupdf.ashx Lanai Oceanside Barbeque The Lanai Promenade Open-air barbeque option features a variety of popular grilled items, from sliders and chicken to quesadillas and hot dogs, along with salads, homemade chips and salsa, and traditional barbecue accompaniments. DR MC Fat Jimmy’s C-Side BBQ The Lanai Promenade Open-air barbeque offering an array of grilled favorites, including barbecued chicken breast, kielbasa, Italian sausage, pulled pork sandwiches, along with traditional sides like baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw and mini-corn muffins.

LHARTWICK Posted May 9, 2013 #840 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I don't remember what the area on the Magic was called, but it did have great sliders and it was only open on sea days. It was out on the Lanai near a hot tub. I didn't see it on the Dream's deck plans though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iott family Posted May 9, 2013 #842 Share Posted May 9, 2013 We totally missed the BBQ on the Lanai and the Taste Bar :eek: I am making it a mission to check these things out on our October cruise this go around!

We are on the Dream on the 15th too! 6 of us, 4 in a cove and 2 right across the hall. It's my eldest graduation present and we have a 5 and 2 yr old that we are hoping will enjoy Camp Carnival for at least an hour a day! My youngest has Down syndrome, but I have gotten great feedback about their program and special needs, I will post a review as this is our first cruise.

jjdmom8 Posted May 15, 2013 #845 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Ok, please don't beat me up for this question but is smoking still allowed on all balconies? Also, where is the smoking area located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2excursion Posted May 15, 2013 #846 Share Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) Ok, please don't beat me up for this question but is smoking still allowed on all balconies? Also, where is the smoking area located? No flaming here. Smoking is permitted on almost all balconies. The ones that it is not allowed on is the Cloud 9 Spa room balconies. No smoking in any rooms (indoors). Those are on Spa deck and about half of them on Panorama deck. Usually, there is one side of the ship in some of the outdoors parts that is smoking, but I'm not sure which.

k2excursion Posted May 15, 2013 #847 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I personally much prefer the Dream's & Magic's lanai BBQ to the Breeze's. In all fairness, I didn't try the Breeze's, but only because I didn't want anything that I saw. It didn't look good to me. Dream's & Magic's were good. The quesadillas were very good. It's not my favorite lunch option, but it's nice to give it a try. Things can always change, but Blackjack Band should be back on the Dream after their vacation. That is the ship that they have a contract with for at least a couple more years. Jimmy told me that there contract has them on the Dream, doing the oceans plaza & him doing the fiddle part in the country show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Haven't cruised on the Dream before but I believe from what I've read the BBQ is on sea days on the Lanai (Deck 5). As far as sushi goes - I don't believe they have the cart anymore but it is offered in the buffet. Not 100% sure on that one but I'm sure someone who has been on the Dream will let you know for sure!
