purplefrogs Posted July 30, 2007 #1101 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Hi Y'all If You Have Been On Conquest Lately, Did You Tender Or Dock At Cozumel? They are now able to dock, as we did on our cruise in May Also, Do They Now Have The 'alternative Selections' On The Dining Room Dinner Menu? Yes, the alternative selections are on the menu and available every night. Also, Some Of The Other Carnival Ships Have Been Retrofitted To Include A Mini-golf Course. As of May, no mini golf. Last Question, I Am Going To Now Be A Platinum Member, As This Is Our 10th Cruise, Has Anyone Had The Luxury Of This, And What All Do You Get? Couldn't help you on this one but I hope to be platinum one day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rwilli01 Posted July 30, 2007 #1104 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Does anyone know the last time Conquest was refurbished and how are the beds on the ship. We are leaving to sail her on Sunday and just wondering what to expect. Thank you in advance. Kay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salhal Posted July 31, 2007 #1105 Share Posted July 31, 2007 We are going a group of 12 or so and we are wondering how many each table holds or if there are tables of 12 available? Salena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinkrbell Posted August 1, 2007 #1108 Share Posted August 1, 2007 We will be sailing next week, and I was under the impression that you could not bring a case of bottled water or sodas on board. I read in here somewhere that people do bring them on board. Can someone help me and fill me in on whether it is ok or not? If so do you just put the drinks in a separate suitcase?

momofmn00 Posted August 1, 2007 #1109 Share Posted August 1, 2007 We sailed on the Conquest in Feb 07 and yes, you are allowed to bring a moderate ammount of water/soda with you. (I just packed a few 24 oz plastic bottles i my car-on...bad idea-TOO HEAVY!) You can pack in your suitcase, or as I saw with some people next to our friends room, just attach it to your luggage handle or whatever! I have read others on CC that bring their soda n a collapsible cooler, that way they cad add ice to it on onboard, or even take it off while at port. I am not sure of the exact # you are allowed to bring, although I know the couple we met onboard said they could bring a 6 pack of soda and water each person! So, I guesss really your biggest problem is finding a place to pack it! Have a great trip!:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon to cruise Posted August 1, 2007 #1110 Share Posted August 1, 2007 if you check your luggage with the pop/ beer or whatever in it....the luggage gets REALLY smashed and if you have checked a soft sided cooler expect to have some crushed cans.

pink daisy Posted August 2, 2007 #1115 Share Posted August 2, 2007 We had two rooms and took checked "as luggage" the following: a 12 pack of sprite taped (with clear packing tape) to a 12 pack of dr. pepper (taping them together made them easier to carry)...just put a luggage tag on it and check it in with your bags. a 24 pack of water taped to a 24 pack of diet coke (with 18 beers and 6 diet cokes in it)...put a luggage tag on it. We sent each one to a different room and it got there just fine. We packed a collapsable cooler in our luggage and the room steward kept it full of ice for us!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasey Posted August 2, 2007 #1116 Share Posted August 2, 2007 We took a duffle size rolling bag with a case of Coke and Dr Pepper, along with 12 bottles of water. We rolled in with us as a carry on and had no problem. There were 6 of us and after unpacking them and drinking them during the week, I had an extra bag for bringing back all my soveniers:p .

We got a large van for 8 people. Rate was $200. $25 per person did not seem bad to me. Their phone number is 713-781-5466. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What time do you need to be back at the ship before it is scheduled to depart? Capers say be back at 5:30 for a 6:00 departure. That would be 2 hours from the start of your dolphin swim. I would be afraid that I was cutting it too close, but if the swim isn't too long and it's not too far from the ship you'd probably be OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was $25 pp, it was a large bus, Greyhound type bus which shuttled us from the pier to Bush Airport. We booked the transfer with the booking of our cruise tickets. The transfer ticket was in our ticket documents. You can always contact Carnival about this directly if you have any questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
