Calker Posted June 11, 2008 #1827 Share Posted June 11, 2008 Sooooo it's 625 days until my Fantasy cruise - if I read 2-1/2 posts a day it should make the time fly by RIGHT?:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandmom08 Posted June 11, 2008 #1829 Share Posted June 11, 2008 I saw in some earlier posts that the pier was destroyed in cozumel and the ships were docking somewhere else after the hurricanes. Does anyone know if that pier has been rebuilt and if not, where will it dock? We will be leaving next Thursday on the Fantasy. I went on two cruises in 2004, and we docked at the pier that was close to all the shops. Does anyone know if the ship uses Equal or Splenda ? 8 more days till cruising and thats all I can think about. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship will dock at either the Punta Langosta pier or the International pier. There are both sweetners onboard. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KajunKruiser Posted June 12, 2008 #1831 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I think there will be the Ecstasy & Enchantment of the Seas in Coz next Saturday - (Bandmom - I think we are you the same cruise departing 6-19). I asked my PVP yesterday if they had any word which pier would be used & she didn't know. The site I found this on estimates a total of over 7000 people in port that day!!

cruznkate Posted June 12, 2008 #1832 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I will be on that same cruise next week also. The website I found posts the pier info every Monday, so we will have to wait until then. I would put the link on here but I'm not sure if that is allowed. -Katey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandmom08 Posted June 12, 2008 #1833 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Thanks for the info. Are you ready for the cruise cruznkate and KajunKruiser? Nice to hear we are going to be on the same one. Please let me know if you get any new information on which pier we will be docking at. Happy cruising!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaylebo35 Posted June 15, 2008 #1834 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Has anyone stayed in the back cabins on Empress Deck? Preferrebly, 240,242,244,255,257 and 259? Is there a lot of vibration and movement? These are the ones at the very end of the ship. Thanks for any advice you can give me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are prone to seasickness, you would want to be in a cabin mid-ship and a lower level. There will be a little bit of vibration but not much.

benvan2 Posted June 16, 2008 #1836 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Are there any hotels in New Orleans that you can stay in before the cruise that will let you leave your car there during the cruise and pay less than the cruise parking garage. I know in Galveston we did this and it was a lot cheaper, but I can't seem to find any. I have a big group traveling from Fort Worth next year in several cars, just trying to save as much $$ as possible, who know's what gas prices will be like next Aug.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sunluva7 Posted June 16, 2008 #1837 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I just found this thread and haven't read through it, so pardon if it's already been discussed. I am considering a 5-day cruise in August of 09 to the Western Caribbean. I will be getting inside quads for daughters and their friends. Both itineraries offer Mayan ruins in the Western Caribbean - the main focus of this cruise. To those who have cruised on both - Which would they like better - the Fantasy or the Enchantment? I've been on the Imagination, and I know Carnival's cabins are bigger, and the cruise is less expensive than that of the Enchantment. However, I've always wanted to try the Enchantment, which was just recently remodeled - I've always thought it appeared to be such a beautiful ship. As this is a board devoted to the Fantasy, please tell me why I should choose it.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fantasy is going into drydock this Sept so it too will have been remodeled with the new Evolutions of Fun. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've posted a similar question on the RCI boards, so may the best ship win!:D I'll let you know which comes out on top. Anyone else have any opinions on this subject?

bandmom08 Posted June 16, 2008 #1842 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Thanks, cruznkate for the info. Do you know if the pier is close to Pancho's Backyard, which is next to Los Cinco Soles. I haven't even started to pack. 3 days to go! I better start getting my sea legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't even started to pack. 3 days to go! I better start getting my sea legs. I'm not sure, bandmom. I've actually never been to Cozumel. Maybe someone else will respond with a definitive answer! I haven't started packing either but that is my goal for today. DH says I need to spend less time obsessing about the cruise and more time preparing!! I guess at this point, he is right! I better go right now and get started!! -Katey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetskier Posted June 16, 2008 #1846 Share Posted June 16, 2008 Can anyone give me good directions to the terminal parking garage coming in on I-10 from Baton Rouge? I-10 East US90 West Exit 11C (right lane), Tchoupitoulas and South Peters St. Take the exit and stay in the right lane. As you go through the first redlight, get in the far right hand lane. Go to second redlight (Tchoupitoulas St.) and turn right. Get in the left lane and at the next redlight (Henderson St.), turn left. Go all the way to the end, over the railroad tracks and turn left. The terminal will be on the right side about a block down. The parking entrance is BEFORE you get to the terminal. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbanana1 Posted June 17, 2008 #1847 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Thanks jetskier. I thought the directions might be a little different than the ones you gave coming in from Biloxi but I guess it's the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Baton Rouge, you go I-10 East.:p Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
