Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Thank you! My husband is eligible for a separate rate code than I am, so if we split me and him up on the reservation, I get $500 OBC and he will get an additional $200 OBC plus free casino drinks. If we combine us both in one room and give the kids their own rooms on paper, then we forego that extra OBC and the free drinks. But good to know about the boys being anywhere. I'm sure they'd rather be on their own deck away from us, haha. They're easy, mature kids, so I'm not worried about them being loud jerks or getting in trouble.
  2. Hi there! I probably need to call CCL and ask, but I thought I'd ask here and see if anyone knows. My husband and I are planning a Spring Break cruise for us and our 5 kids who range in age from 14 - 20 (14 year old boy, two 16 year old girls and the two 20 year old boys (I should say men...haha). This will more than likely be our last family vacay as the 7 of us, as the kids are getting older and serious girlfriends are emerging (yikes!). We would ideally like to get three rooms...but with my husband and I being the only two adults over the age of 21 at time of sail, will it be an option to assign our two 20 year old boys to their own room on the reservation therefore allowing us to get three rooms? I'd like to have the reservation show a room with myself and two girls, my husband with the youngest and then the older boys in their own room, so 3/2/2 break out in rooms...then obviously switch everyone out on board to have my husband and I alone in a room, the three youngest in a room next door or as close as possible and the older boys in the third room. I see the rule is 21 and over to sail "alone", but since they aren't technically alone but accompanied by us and on our reservation, can they be assigned to their own room? If not, then I guess we'll just have to do two rooms (which will be a tight fit).
  3. Yes. And bottles of water and specialty coffees. It includes much more than just booze.
  4. The key is to get any medication you take in your system BEFORE you feel sick. If you feel sick, it's too late. So I always start taking one Bonine the morning before I board, then I take another right before going to bed. I can then maintain it in my system by taking one before bed every day. I've never had an issue so far! I tried a "natural" seasickness patch that was highly recommended on Amazon on my last cruise. I was fine on embarkation day, but started feeling super tired that night. By the next morning I was out of it. I felt drugged and I couldn't figure out why...I thought maybe I was just tired from travel?? Most of our first sea day I had to lie down and felt like my head was too heavy to lift off the pillow...but not nauseous like seasickness. Then it dawned on me I was wearing that stupid patch! I ripped it off and literally within a half hour I was feeling better. Who knows, may have been all in my head...but I swore off those patches from then on. Bonine for me!
  5. Thanks for posting about this! I had no idea this existed. Found all the info just now on the CCL site and sent it to my mom. We're cruising with my parents and they just don't drink enough to justify the cheers package, but a selection of 5 bottles will do them nicely for dinner!
  6. My original post also asked if La Palapa was as good as I remembered it being, and they answered that part of my questions. But thank you!
  7. Hi all! Cruising the 8 day Mex Riviera on Carnival Panorama Oct 7 2023 with my parents (celebrating their 50th anny!!). Husband and I are frequent cruisers, but never cruised the Mex Riviera. Is there anything similar to Cozumel's Nachi Cocom in Cabo, La Paz or Mazatlan? A quiet beach day (not a loud music,party atmosphere...because parents 😇), prefer all inclusive? I've been to PV in the past and LOVED IT. I plan to show them the Zona Romantica, the Malecon, do shopping and eating and enjoying the beautiful town. On a side note...is La Palapa in PV still amazing? Best night ever was spent at a beach table at that beautiful restaurant. Our day in PV is their actual anniversary, and I'd love to do an early dinner there. Our ship is in port until 8...so I think we'd be able to do it.
