Default tried to order roses

Anyone know why can't I order roses for the Ecstay 12-3 sailing online. I tried several times. I can order other items, but no flowers.

I was having problems with the website earlier. I did my funpass and it did not save it. If you can order other things, you might have to call and ask about the flowers. Sometimes they have restrictions on flowers. We will be with you on 12-3.

I had the same problem, when I tried to order roses for our 25th anniversary cruise on the Victory in September out of San Juan. I had to call the telephone number provided to place the order. I figured it had something to do with Carnival ordering the roses from a local florist, but don't know for sure.

The roses looked great and were a big hit with the DW.

He's not asking "how" to order flowers. "CALL"

He's asking "WHY" he can't order them on line.

Tried again today, but still no luck...

So I broke down and called the Bon voyage department...

1 dozen roses will be waiting in our cabin...

It is not for me to answer "WHY" anyone does what they do or dont do!


It was an effort to solve their perceived problem. And advise them how I worked around that same situation.

Besides judging by their last response...... It was an indirect question it would seem.
