Spokesperson, as was pointed out, is. I have always heard them used interchangeably. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet I could do a great job at picking you apart. It was a simple question. No need to pick on a person's looks or whatever the spokesmodel was for. I think you know his title. Jeez, rude much? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just reinforced the mantra about Carnival being the Walmart of the Seas, congratulations. 😉 I am pretty sure the guy I saw in the MAGA hat and the American flag speedo is the reason it is the Walmart of the seas. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was sharing a lot more of his package than I was comfortable with... From what I could tell it was nothing to be proud of... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't imagine spending $160pp on milkshakes, sodas, coffees, etc. Apparently, since I've spent a lot more on the vacation, this charge is essentially a rounding error. I've never known any person in my life that would have ever made good use of such a thing (if there even is good use). Especially when water, juice, tea, and coffee are included and you can carry on soda. At best, they force down all of this sugar to "break even" and tell you how amazing the peace of mind was. If I had kids, I'd grab them their favorite 12 pack of soda and we'd buy a few other treats here and there. Hell, the soda on board is canned too. While I like my "conveniences" on vacation, there is a line where it becomes excessive. Carnival will not do this "middle ground" package as it doesn't make them money. Their model is working for them right now. A la carte is making them money. Cheers makes them even more money as many are obsessed with "unlimited" and scared to death of individual charges. Agreed; $160 pp is too much for non-alcoholic drinks. It also puts carnival between a rock and a hard place on the rules around it. With cheers it's all adults in the cabin. With this would it be all people in the cabin? Otherwise there would be too many people with 3 kids who get one package and their kids all share it. Or require it of everyone and get the people saying "of course my 3 year old won't use the package". Soda is cheap enough that they don't care. Smoothies, milkshakes, specialty coffee, etc isn't as cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
