stellarose Posted November 1, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 1, 2021 carnival made us feel special being jewish. we had potato lakes, chocolate coins. very nice. even "lit" the menorah in the atrium. Christmas is was Santa, wear your pj Christmas Day. very festive. CCL does a great job with both holidays. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas is was Santa, wear your pj Christmas Day. very festive. CCL does a great job with both holidays. Agreed! I'm not Jewish, but I do enjoy seeing the beautiful Menorah in the lobby. Just adds to the atmosphere IMO. The atrium Christmas tree is always gorgeous, too! Most ships have Christmas music playing over the intercom as well, but not all. At least that's been our observation. This year will be the first time we've cruised during Christmas week - we usually cruise the week prior to Christmas. I'm tempted to get some Christmas PJs to wear on Christmas Eve around the ship - have seen this on our other December cruises. They would have to be Snoopy though!! 🙂 There's usually an ugly Christmas Sweater contest as well - that is a HOOT!! 🎅 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knew about the ugly sweater contest but not the PJs Christmas Eve. Have to start looking for our PJs. This will be our first Christmas Cruise and first away from the family. Can’t wait to enjoy all the fun. After all the Covid cancellations the day is finally beginning to approach. 41 days to our Freedom B2B out of Miami. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off topic but we are cruising Dec 27 too. I was discussing with my PVP and he said I will have to take the covid test Saturday (which is Christmas) or Sunday (the day we are driving to the port). Have you thought about what you plan to do to get the covid test? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are up to date with vaccines, we can take the test 12/24 which is 3 days before we sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the previous poster sailed last Christmas as their post was back in November. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyntil8ing Posted June 11, 2022 #13 Share Posted June 11, 2022 This photo was from my Spring Break 2022 cruise, but they do sell Christmas sweaters onboard. Also, I was on Carnival Pride for Christmas 2017. There were Christmas activities, but they were more secular than Christian. That is, Santa Claus, not Jesus.
