How often (if at all) does the Mobile parking garage fill up? We have a cruise scheduled the week of Thanksgiving and it seems the ship is sold out as it doesn't show up on Carnival's site any longer for booking. I have read the garage has 500 spots. Does it fill up regularly and passengers have to use the offsite lot? We really want to embark once we can go straight to our rooms but don't want to end up not in the parking garage. We are also looking at using a local resident and parking on his property for half the cost of parking at the garage. If we are likely to end up offsite anyway, we would go with him. TIA!

Yes, we cruised Royal last October and Disney this past March and both required us to upload a photo (head shot in front of a blank wall) but it couldn't be your passport or state issued ID. It was our first time on DCL but have been on Royal before and they didn't require in the past. We haven't been on Carnival since 2018 and will be back on in November so glad to know I don't have to upload photos again. It was cumbersome in my opinion because the photos were on my phone so that meant I had to do the check in on the phone instead of the computer.

I did have to stifle several giggles, cackles and teehees!

Thank you! I had two C-sections in my early 30's and definitely feel like this recovery is very different now that I am in my early 40's, ha! It is coming along but not as quickly as I would like. But I am blessed with a wonderful husband, children, family and friends who have taken good care of me during this time!

I am at home on leave due to a hernia surgery and your review was most entertaining as usual. Thank you for taking the time to share and for the phenomenal photos! Cant wait until your next review. Glad you all had a great trip and traveling grace!

Here is another link in the event you can't find what you need on the other one. https://profcruise.com/carnival-bar-menus-and-drink-prices-2023/

Wonderful, this is very helpful!

Awesome, this is exactly what I needed to know! Thank you!

Thanks, we are looking forward to getting back on Carnival!

Thanks. Yes, I am aware. Just wanted to compare the base alcoholic drink prices. While I drink coffee, we did Disney in March and Royal last October and I didn't drink any on either ship. I am not a big soda drinker and we will get 4 liters of water (husband and I are gold and it will be our children's second cruise on Carnival) when we first board plus we can get water on lido. So, I don't normally consider the extras simply because I don't normally purchase enough of those for it to make a big difference when considering the cost.

Thank you! If the Tito's and tonic is on par with the price of cocktails it does make it easier to lean towards purchasing it. I wasn't sure if they simply charged for the liquor or if they charged anything additional for the one mixer like tonic or soda.

Thank you. I had looked at a similar one prior to posting. But in looking at carnival menus, the price for liquor only is different than cocktails so I didn't find that the calculators actually answer my actual question.

We haven't been on Carnival since 2018 and have a cruise coming up in November. I have found menus and drink prices online but was wondering how they charge for a liquor and one mixer. For example, I found that Tito's is $9.50. So, if I ordered a Tito's and tonic, how much would the drink be? Trying to determine if Cheers is worth it or if I should just pay as I go. I don't really drink fruity drinks any longer and of course those are more expensive so trying to see what break even would be for me with Cheers. I do drink wine too and have been able to see some of the wine is more expensive but of course would be able to carry wine on. We've not cruised with an Alchemy Bar before so that adds another layer if they are able to make drinks that don't skew sweet but aren't basic. Thanks in advance!

The cabins are already booked & technically my husband is booked with my son in the interior & my daughter is booked with me in the balcony. I just wanted to confirm the door placement. Thanks!

Wonderful, thank you so much!
