Going on the Venizia tomorrow....!
So, your room card is for the slot machine
Your pin # is (I forget)?
You can charge to the cabin
You need to log out and transfer the credit to your card
Is all of this correct? What is the pin #..?
Oh i may see you im on her now. 👍🏼

I can't wrap my head around tipping (how much) for this cruise. It's time to make decisions and this particular cruise is nothing like any other cruise. There are four of us. Two adults and two teens. We have mostly dined in a restaurant like Bonsai sushi where we paid for our meal and tipped accordingly. We have paid tips on countless drinks. We paid gratuity on things like fresh juice. We have only eaten in the main dining room for breakfast and even then, it was just the two of us most of the time. The teens are in the buffet. I am just trying to wrap my head around paying $112 x four people plus all of the other gratuities. They also only service the room once a day compared to two. This is the first time where I just don't seem to be able to wrap my head around it. I'm easily swayed back to tipping, but wondering what protocol is now that so much dining is not in the main dining room.
I always tip my cabin stuart and extra 30-50 depending on the cruise length and my dinning room staff. (If good) since you barely ate there i prob wouldnt. The rest its spread around . If a few were extra good around the ship i tip a little here and there.

I'm GUESSING I can't but figured I'll ask...
I have a lightweight coffee maker I take to Vegas...was wondering if they will let me bring that onboard or will it be confiscated?
Since I won't have the drink package this time, I'm looking for ways to get some decent coffee...
I bring on my own creamer cups. It helps with their cheap mud coffee...

I got nervous as I am going on her in jan. But as soon as i saw she liked the steak well done i knew i was ok.....
Seriously it really does seem she had a little bad luck. I have had that happen on my last cruise terrible wait staff on the freedom for dinners but brunch very good. Other foods mostly bad imo. So she may have got stuck with a bad team. Other than that towels seem silly to me to ruin a cruise. Other things seem small as well.

And drinks….and no gratuities……and free gambling……and no charge for excursions….and free pictures……
Lets not exaggerate . Every hotel you stay at includes wifi. This is a floating one.

I'm sure you could beat the price in port, but at sea, it's the cheapest game in town.
Bhaa i can go without it at sea. My plan works at any port. So i get 4g when we dock to check my emails and such. If its too pricey it will discourge some from using it like myself imo. Younger ppl on social media and texting yes they buy it .mostly the whole cruise.

We just received our first ever upgrade offer, after 11 cruises on Carnival. It is $192 to upgrade to the Cove balcony. The balcony cabin is 2295 which is under the MDR, so the location is good. The only downfall I see is that we would be giving up the second bathroom. Any thoughts?
I take a nap before late dinner. Would you not hear noise and thumping around at 5:30pm?
How many ppl would be in your cabin?

Its been very expensive and i bet many were not getting it. I was getting it for 24 hours twice a cruise on port days. But i saw $22 for 1 day and i cant justify $44 for only 2 days of use.

Yes, in the designated smoking areas.
Tell him to make sure he has enough Vape juice to last though, cuz I've yet to see any sold onboard. Who knows if they have juice in ports.
Yes i saw ppl puffing in the casino no issue and one warned in a non smoking area but not harshly. It was in the hottub. Just this week on the freedom

Whatever sounds good at the time. I will admit though, the mushrooms and crumbled bacon are missed.
A crew member was telling me they save millions cutting back on mushrooms. No wonder i dont see it as often anymore.

I dont know about all ships but on celebration the fresh cut fries were gone. Just reg frozen crinkle cut type . I wish i could get my burger medium.

Yes, you make a good point. I guess I initially read this kind of like tell me why I am not going to have a good time. But I do recognize that If you were concerned it is good to ask. For future bookings you will have excellent info based on your actual experience on your current cruise. Enjoy!
So far having a great time 👍🏼 thx. I dont go looking to complain just hoping cuts arent too bad.

Personally I wouldn't solicit a bunch of negative feedback just prior to a cruise. It is going to be what it is going to be. Enjoy!
One would like to know what to expect , it doesnt sound too bad so i am happy about that. Its good to know for anyone that it msy be a deal breaker booking future ones
