The vaccinated are allowed to explore on their own at the port. It's only the unvaccinated that has to use Carnival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatoneguyyouknow Posted July 5, 2021 #80 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Could you let me know what flavors of hard seltzer (trulys?) are available on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanmarcosman Posted July 5, 2021 #81 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Thanks for the live 🙂 Have you seen in the lido if the gelato station is open at lunch? The included in your cruise fare gelatos are one of our absolute favorite dessert items on Vista. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now there are no restrictions on ports for vaccinated. We only have 5 bubble excursions listed for my sailing next Saturday and it seems like if there's issues they switch out the port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aadaneboy Posted July 5, 2021 #85 Share Posted July 5, 2021 Thanks for the information. We just booked the Vista for 7/17 after we had 5 Princess and MSC cruises cancel on us. Really looking forward to finally getting back to sea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have the app loaded, prior to boarding, put your device in airplane mode, and you should be good to go. Previously the only thing you paid for on the app was $5 (entire cruise), for the chat feature. Interesting, i had no idea. Can we use the ships intranet to text each other? We’re going with a big group this time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a lot of people miss it because they just aren't aware of it. And as for people who haven't used the CCL app, it's great! We used it for several cruises prior to CV shutdown. Worked great for YTD reservations and it was nice to have all of the upcoming menus for the week at our finger tips. Helped plan out the week better in case we had an excursion day where we may be too tired to go do MDR or if there was a night when the menu just didn't appeal to us. It also has the weather forecast. What kind of music are the bands playing around the ship? We were hoping The Blackjack Band or 2Country4Nashville would be back, but I guess not - at least I haven't seen any CCL gigs listed on their individual websites.😥 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The staff always served it, even before CV, and we enjoyed visiting with them as always. Can't wait to have more! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was nov of 19 or 2018, but it was always closed. Of course I read later sky ride was often closed later on, at least was open for my cruise. I hope it's open at lunch and no problems freezing like before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In February, 2020 aboard the Panorama the gelato station was opened on time and in accordance with the posted serving times. I will say there were disappointed people who arrived after the service time and the freezer unit was being rolled away from the buffet to the galley for cleaning. Be on time folks, you snooze you lose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
