MamaParrotHead Posted July 1, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Will Carnival give me extra keys to their cabin, so I can have 1 key to their cabin and 1 key to ours? I know we can switch at the Purser's desk and such once onboard, but the kids will be 6 and 10 so I'd still like a key to each cabin. Thanks.

LovesCruisin Posted July 1, 2008 #2 Share Posted July 1, 2008 We never have had a problem requesting keys for the other room. In fact our kids are older and we plan to have a key to their cabin again. You shouldnt have any problem requesting one or two extra. Eva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted July 1, 2008 #3 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Just ask at the pursers desk. Duck said they say Mr. Key on them lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fat_joe Posted July 3, 2008 #4 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I also want to get an extra key for my kids' room. However, our TA said that Carnival requires at least one adult to be booked in each cabin. So offcially, we have one adult and one child in each cabin and we plan to switch once we get on board. Won't the purser know that we are breaking a rule if we ask for an extra key?

You do not have to have an adult in each cabin if the cabins are right next to each other or directly across the hall from each other. If the rooms are adjoining, just leave the door unlocked (kids door, you want your door locked for obvious reasons) between the rooms and you do not have to hastle with an additional key, that is what we did.

poobears Posted July 3, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Yep with Carnival they don't have to have an adult as long as they are in the approved areas (next door or directly across the hall). I don't think they'd think twice about giving you an extra key. Especially if you have people split up in different rooms. Even if there's an adult in the room it would make sense the adult would want a key to the other room too where part of their kids were also staying. I want adjoining rooms but it seems like they book up over a year in advance for everything that sleeps more than 2. We've had no luck so far.

Susie51 Posted July 3, 2008 #7 Share Posted July 3, 2008 When did the policy change about one adult assigned to each room? In the past that was the policy to have an adult in each room and then do the key switch once on board. We also kept the adjoining room door unlocked.

As far as I know that's always been the policy, the children had to be directly across or next door. Maybe I should ask how many years ago you heard otherwise??

fat_joe Posted July 3, 2008 #9 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Thank you everyone. Our rooms are next to each other but are not connecting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poobears Posted July 3, 2008 #10 Share Posted July 3, 2008 Could you be thinking of RC? They told us that an adult was required in each room regardless of where it was (other than adjoining). They did say what we did once on board was up to us, but for insurance reasons they had to have an adult in each room. They also unofficially told us many people with families book a suite for part of the people and a lower inside for the rest. Then they all just stay in the suite even though it's over the sleeping limit posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
