Hi Folks, My wife and I are Platinum but never sailed on the Sunshine or out of Charleston, but we're looking at it. The most recent reviews on Cruise Critic are not the Sunshine's friend. What are your recent experiences? The good, bad, and the ugly. Thanks in advance & have a nice day.

Is 555 Bar sitting outside 555 on a walkway, like you could walk right up without actually going inside the steak house? Do they require pants to sit at the bar like they do to eat in the restaurant? Can you order dinner at the bar?

Christmas Eve menu ...

Do they still offer the Smoked Filet on 1st night?

Hours they are open Time of day to go or avoid Menu or types of coffee they serve Prices Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts. Cheers! M&T

Global Ports Holding Chairman and CEO, Mehmet Kutman, said: “I welcome San Juan Cruise Port into the world’s largest cruise port network. The GPH team looks forward to working in partnership with all stakeholders to refurbish and reinvigorate this leading cruise port to create a world-leading cruise port experience for the benefit of all stakeholders.” “Our work to transform this port will see hundreds of millions of US dollars invested into San Juan Cruise Port, all financed by private capital. Our plans include building a new cruise pier, a state-of-the-art cruise terminal, and significant enhancements to the public infrastructure.” As part of the deal, the number of docks currently capable of serving as homeport for four cruise ships at a time will double to eight. Docks battered by hurricanes Irma and Maria in 2017, and which have been worn down throughout the decades, will be modernized.

I thought I saw a list on Cruise critic of every beverage available on Carnival ships, but I cant find it. Information on their website is very outdated: https://www.carnival.com.au/~/media/CCLAU/pdf/media-centre/carnival-au-bottomless-bubbles-2019 Thanks!

Does carnival publish a list of their mixers and soda options available on the ship?

I'm an old school all day drinker, I hit my limit most days and then help my wife with her 15. Pace yourself the first 2 days, start early, finish late. They have plenty of hydration options to help with the pacing. Coco Water is included, order 1 every hour or so when you grab a drink, slam it at the bar. Take Propel to you cabin, drink it before bed.

What is considered an Inaugural Season, how long will the free dinning options at "pay restaurants" continue? Thanks, & Cheers! MnT.
