Conquest only Questions! Post 'em Here!

The Panorama deck does have an observation deck forward. I think this is a great deck, especially for a family. You will be close to Camp Carnival, the Lido pools and slide, and the gym. The gym has large private multi-head showers. This can be a real time-saver for dad and/or a son to use while the ladies dress in the cabin.;)

 

Fantastic idea... THANKS!

This might be old news, but I thought some people may be interested in seeing a video of the "secret area" on the Conquest. I'm not sure if it's THE secret area, but it was definitely one of them. You had to walk all the way forward on either the fifth or sixth floor, I can't remember. Down the cabin hallways and to a door that said, "Caution, high winds."

Not on the Conquest, the rooms on 11 don't have balconies. The Valor is a different story.

We are sailing Oct 26, 2008 & was wondering what night would be formal night? Halloween is Friday night & we were not sure if this is a formal night or can we dress in costume.

[EastTexans2]

lisalisa......we are cruising on the 26th also! Where are you from?

[yst347]

Monday night is the Captain's Party.

 

Thursday night after sailing from Grand Cayman is the second formal night.

 

We have sailed during Halloween before. Carnival doesn't make a huge deal out of the holiday but there should be some themed events held. Some passengers and many crew will wear costumes.

[lisalisa143]

eastexans2...we are from Crowley, La. We are you from? Are y'all dressing for Halloween?

[EastTexans2]

lisalisa........We are in east Texas - Winnsboro, north of Tyler. I bought some Halloween tee shirts but we're not taking costumes. Are you driving straight down to the port? We always stop in the Conroe area and then drive to the port in the morning.

we just got our IS GTY rooms for 12/21 cruise on Conquest.....

they are 7428/7432 --- 4D....so it is a good upgrade.:p ..

and they are side by side which is even better, it would have cost me $900

more to book this directly.

 

only conern:

IS it is bad in the Aft, have only done front of ship and mid front.....like more movement/vibration from engines at all?

 

thanks for any input!!!!:D

Congratulations on your upgrade!:)

 

Empress deck is my favorite on the ship. On our last Conquest cruise we had cabin 7453. We felt no vibration at all, only the motion of the ocean.:cool:

 

Have a great cruise!

[stainedglasslady]

We are sailing on the Conquest in cabin 8249. Anyone been in it? Are the balconies covered? Is it a good location?

[PYB2008]

Ever stayed in cabin # 8359 or # 8353?

They seem to be a good location...

 

:D

[Dwtlcambre]

Anyone ever stayed in 8249. We are excited as this is our 1st balcony room.

Hubby and I are travelling without our children this time and were wondering about the two formal nights... are they really suit and tie? The last two times we were on carnival were Esctasy and Holiday and the formal nights were no where NEAR formal. Should hubby bring a suit? Will a jacket suffice or just a shirt and tie. Thoughts??

 

Also, what's the real "dish" (hahaha) on the supper club? The menu doesn't look that different from the typical dining room offering? Is it just more private? Again... thoughts would be appreciated!

 

See you on the 9th!

Hello. My wife and I are leaving on our 1st cruise on the Conquest on Nov. 2nd. We were wondering about formal nights. What is the dress code? Will a dress shirt and tie work?

[honestokiechic]

Here is what it says on the Carnival site. Hope this helps!!!

 

Is there a dress code for the dining room?Depending on the length of the cruise, either formal dress or casual resort wear is required in the Dining Room. The dress requirement for children is the same. For those not wanting to dress up, the Lido restaurants are open nightly (with the exception of the last evening of the cruise), and have a casual dress code.

Cruise Casual Dining Dress Code: Gentlemen - Sport slacks, khakis, jeans (no cut-offs), dress shorts (long), collared sport shirts; Ladies - Casual dresses, casual skirts or pants and blouses, summer dresses, Capri pants, dress shorts, jeans (no cut-offs). Not permitted in the dining room during the Cruise Casual dinner for ladies and gentlemen: gym shorts, basketball shorts, beach flip-flops, bathing suit attire, cut-off jeans, and sleeveless shirts for men.

Cruise Elegant Dining Dress Code: Gentlemen - Dress slacks, dress shirts. We also suggest a sport coat. If you wish to wear suits and ties or tuxedos, by all means we invite you to do so. Ladies - Cocktail dresses, pantsuits, elegant skirts and blouses; if you‘d like to show off your evening gowns, that's great too! Not permitted in the dining room during the Cruise Elegant dinner for ladies and gentlemen: shorts, T-shirts, beach flip-flops, bathing suit attire, jeans, cut-off jeans, sleeveless shirts for men, sportswear, and baseball hats.

Come join our Roll Call, we are pretty active, especially now we are so close to sail away.

Since the Conquest will be repositioning from Bayport to Galveston, the embarkation will be later than normal.

I believe that sail-away is now around 6:30PM, and with the time change it will actually feel like 7:30PM :( (fall back, spring forward).

[yst347]

Where is THE secret area? :o

 

The "secret" areas are the forward observation decks. You can access them by walking to the front of the ship on decks 6,7,9 or 10. You will see a door that says "caution high winds", go on out and enjoy.

Does anyone know if you're allowed to bring fruit on board if you purchase it in port? I know you can't take it off the ship when you return to Galveston. I was thinking about buying some fresh fruit in Jamaica to eat during the rest of the week.

No your not allowed.

 

You can get all the fruit you want in the Cezanne. They have whole fresh apples, oranges, sometimes kiwi, banannas, etc. Look for the baskets of fruit.;)
