Are the Havana wristbands such you could lend to a friend?

 

DW and I are in Havana cabin but couldn't get one for our 2 kids (16 and 18). Was wondering if we could lend the wristband to them at times we are doing something else.

Of course you can....Right after you get done giving your 16 year old a soda and your 18 year old a beer from your Cheers program.

I'm scheduled for the Vista Feb 4th. from Miami and haven't been on a cruise since 2004 when I was a teen and my dad organized and paid for everything. I know ships have changed a lot since then so I have a few questions:

 

1) For specialty dinning can everyone pay separately or is the person who made the reservation charged for the entire bill?

 

2) I read that for birthdays you get a $50 gift certificate for the spa. Do you get that on your birthday or on your first day? My birthday is on the last day so it would suck to not have enough time to use it.

 

3) Did anyone wait until the shore date to buy excursions (Cozumel and Ochos Rios specifically) from the guys selling them on the dock? If so, were they much cheaper than Carnival rates or about the same?

As far as the specialty dining at the end of the meal they will collect your sign and sail cards. Everyone can pay for their own meal or you can tell them to put someone’s meal on your card.

 

 

As far as the birthday gift certificate I never cruised during a birthday so not sure.

 

We didn’t do an excursion in Cozumel. And in ocho Rios we did the bob Marley excursion we bought through carnival.

This was a thread from almost a year ago I can’t recall what the movies were in the imax. We did do the horror movie in the thrill theater and that was great

Question: In the casino is there a coin pusher machine that has quarters in it that you can play? Also can you use cash for the slot machines or do you have to use your sail and sign card?

Yes for the first one. No for the second you have to use your sail and sign

You absolutely can put cash into a slot machine if you don’t want to charge your cabin. I do it all the time. The only thing is you don’t get cash back. It’s goes on your account which you then have to cash out at the cage.
