We disembarked Sat the 10th. I don't know if we arrived at LB early due to weather or not but we were there at about 0330. We had priority due to cabin class and we were instructed to be at Deck 4 forward at 0800. If I remember correctly, I saw people on the gangway by about 0700. We carried our luggage and didn't even stop at customs, just waived through. We were in the hotel shuttle by 0750. I assume this was out of the ordinary...

Formal nights on Carnival - how formal?

While not making a statement either way regarding wearing hats while dinning, I am reminded of this great scene. Tony Soprano... -
Formal nights on Carnival - how formal?
DnD CruiserZ replied to Caracarn2's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Just off the Panorama last week. From what we saw on the one "formal" night we attended, it was a mixed bag. Some people really dressed up in suits and the equivalent women's wear, some in casual slacks with a nice button up shirt and some with a polo. Again, with the women's equivalent. In my opinion, and it is worth exactly what you paid for it, dressing up for food and service that can be had at most mid level chain restaurants is ridiculous. Now, I don't mean to derail this thread, but My Biggest Grip was that the quality of the food and service in no way matched the "MDR" Dining experience of years gone by. Maybe this is because we choose anytime dinning instead of a set time but that would only account for the service. No excuse for poor quality food that isn't even served hot in the "MDR". Yes, they offer "fancy" items not found at Applebee's for example (Frogs Legs or Escargot) but if you can't do them well, don't. Just my thoughts on Formal Night in the MDR... -

Government Issued COVID Tests with OnPoint Teleservice
DnD CruiserZ replied to mickeychicky's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
We just scheduled Aug 31st for a Sep 3rd cruise. No issues and it appeared lots of time slots available but I was not really paying attention other than looking for the time we wanted. -

3 days short of the Carnival no pre cruise testing guideline. 19 -
Wife and I are on this same cruise. Part of me agrees with bdever in the hopes that this keeps some obvious and not so obvious sick people off the cruise. On the other hand, I am bummed we still have worry about ourselves testing positive (false or not) and not being able to cruise. Obviously I don't want to be positive and potentially infect others but if I'm asymptomatic or no longer contagious, I would really hate to have to miss this cruise.

Thanks! That would certainly add to the overall experience and make the long travel to an embarkation port worth while...being able to enjoy more time off the ship. On the cruises I have been on, we have never had anything like that. Last cruise we were on we had "port day" that was 1900 to 2330 or something close to that. We did not get to really do anything on land.
