Our luggage tags said FTTF which is how the porters knew and they put an orange sticker on our luggage. Then our sail and sign cards had FTTF on them. I would be calling Carnival to see what's going on. I can't imagine the porters having time to read an email.

They DID call and they cannot change the tags but once inside during check in they have the email but it will not speed up their luggage thats why I was just going to put my tags on it. Its not like they did not pay for it. The porters just pass the luggage on its the baggage screeners that move the luggage to the expediting area for faster processing.

Not any longer, I think they used to allow it I still see alot of kids/teens up there

You could do it that way but should go to guest services to fix in case you have tender ports

I would hope that when they issue the sign and sail card FFTF will be on there, the only prob I see is the luggage delayed

I have FFTF on my upcoming cruise on the Valor and a relative is cruising with us something got messed up with their FFTF and they told them to bring the email that states they have FFTF because their luggage tags do not reflect this. I was wondering if I can just put 2 of my tags on their 2 bags to go to my room. I dont want them to delay getting their bags when they have paid for FFTF and you wont be able to show anyone the email until we are in the terminal and they take the luggage outside.

how do you get a PIN?

If you go on carnival.com and register you can do it if you booked yourself through carnival

how?

My first cruise was on the Paradise and I had an awesome time and will go again. I went on the Freedom for my second cruise and while I had some complaints I still had a good time. Cruises are what you make it. If you let one thing make you mad your entire cruise will be ruined. THe larger ships are ok but too many people be prepared to wait longer.

Anyone recently off the Valor, How was the comedians? I guess they usually have the same for a couple months maybe it will be the same

It won't apply. You can show up whenever you want. Don't buy FTTF :)

and why would you say that? FTTF is well worth the price IMO last time I was on the ship at 1130 my bags were in my room and of course my room was ready and changed into proper attire and proceeded to the pool area

On your meals, hope you linked the three bookings so everyone can dine together!

OMG thats my kryptonite

So Faster to the fun still can get on early? I hope so last cruise I got on at 1130, I was planning on getting there at that time again

I usually mid way thru cruise take server aside and give him a little extra for good service if its lacking the extra cash that I give him will usually make it better if its great then he is getting what he/she works hard for. I do the same for my room steward its not a lot that I give but compared to what they actually get divided up it makes a difference. So far I've been lucky and have never received crappy service. Either way I do my best not to get too worked up about it after all we are on to relax have a great time and if you dwell it really ruins your cruise.

Yes

wow that was fast thanks! the last time I was there I was sunburned bad and someone barfed at the area where you get on tenders and Ebola was a threat lol

Is the pirateship bar on halfmoon pay by sail n sign card since its a private island?

That's disturbing.

it wasnt so bad except having to wear life jacket that was strangling me the dolphin made friends with us and made rounds to everyone in the dolphin area

Freeport is an industrial port. Once you get off the ship there's shopping and food in the immediate area. However, there's no walking around beyond that. Anything you want to do requires transportation.

 

What kind of things does your traveling party like to do?? I'd hate to recommend something you're not interested in.

was thinking about the beach but not sure of the costs, safety ect

Stay on the ship ....

please elaborate

We did the Balmoral on the last cruise I believe they said it was kinda new, when we went there were no lockers just cubby holes hopefully they have them now. I remember they kinda forgot about us in the dolphin pool and we kinda got bored playing with the dolphin and I didnt think that was possible lol

First time in Freeport whats good to do there? Is it safe as far as crimes against tourist? Going to be there on the Valor next month
