As of 3rd week of September men was still on board. 

Carnival's website shows a Journeys cruise for January 2021. 

Just of the Pride in March and yes the have the "bonus" game in the quarter pusher game.

Casino on Pride opens shortly after you get underway.

Plenty of parking spaces, so no worries there. Getting off and leaving early is more to do with wether you self assist or check bags and when your group is called to get off the ship. Traffic around the port is variable, but Sunday morning traffic is not usually terrible, unless there is a Ravens game that afternoon or special event going on.

Cruised in March, stops get them when check in in terminal.

Follow-up question. Do you know WHY FTTF is not offered on Journey's cruises? A new cruiser is asking, since they were wanting to purchase for their Hawaii cruise next year.

FTTF is available on Journey cruises, as I purchased it for my Journey cruises in January . I purchased it in March so it was available.

Our last 2 trips on the Pride, we got assigned a 2-top, without even asking .

I am sailing Magic on Saturday. I just received this email yesterday saying that bringing your own water and soda IS NOT allowed. It does say specifically say bottled water and soda, but maybe they mean cans also. You can argue semantics, I suppose.

I don't bring my own soda or water aboard, just passing along the information. Perhaps this is a new policy change to include no more sodas allowed to be brought on board???

The letter is poorly written. According to the link cans and cartons of non alcoholic beverage can be bright on board.

The Pride had String trio in March. They performed in Alchemy and Atruim several times throughout the week .

We used YTD on one cruise last year and found it to be even more inconvenient than picking a seating time . We always had to wait at least 30 minutes, in fact one night we waited for 30 minutes and gave the pager back and they said 20 more minutes. So we waited 30 minutes to go and eat in the lido .

Just had him on the Pride in March. He was funny and entertaining .

The only time I've seen this was last year on Freedom on a sea day. I ordered a grey goose bloody mary at the casino bar. The bartender told me they had a special on belvedere vodka...extra shot until noon. I told him I was on cheers. He said it was fine. It would be one drink. I had that and then got another just before noon. I haven't heard of this deal since then though.

Yep just of the Pride, same deal till noon. Tip your bartender and it will last all day .;);)

When we were an the Pride in October, we picked up or keys when we checked in at the terminal.

I truth they are not refrigerators, they are coolers. I complained to GS that ours was not very cold and was told that they keep things cool, not make them cold . Nothing in them, two bottles of h2o on the desk for sale .

Pride is often late returning that Sunday morning, but if she is on time 130 pm or so

I had a great experience in October when my wife and I were aboard the Pride. Service and food were great, so much so we are excited to go again in March when we are aboard again. Maybe we enjoyed it so much since we don't often get the chance to enjoy fine dining as often as we would like.

I dislike atd. We had it on our last cruise and the wait each evening was awful. They usually had at least a 30-45 minutes. We might as well had late seating.
