Where do you find this??

prompt is what we do lol

how can you say avoid a ship at all costs because of rude passengers? First off the passengers the OP encountered would not be the passengers of the cruisers you are speaking to and secondly how is it the Ships fault there are rude people on board? Its not like its a check in question "Are you rude?" yes or no?

Ive never gotten into a jacuzzi that wasnt very hot.

Cove Balcony first choice regular Balcony second choice

yes mine are 90% Australia as well

Yes severe cutbacks to the amount of days ive been at sea.

On a new ship sure but this ship was already staffed and and they would have been used to working together and already familiar with the ship. I would posit the issues were switching over from the COSTA way of doing things to the CARNIVAL way of doing things.

Second sailing as a Carnival ship vs Hundreds of sailings as a Costa ship? if the kinks ain't worked out by now they never will be.

Yes but if they dont use Carnivals FAQ why would they use Cruise Critics FAQ?

i spend roughly 800-1000 each cruise and i get them. I think the question you need answered is how much do you have to spend to get the "good" Elite offers ie drinks on us everywhere etc vs my Elite offers of Drinks on us in the Casino lol.

Unsure what "the PDF they sent was a nightmare" means? you open your planner click on print docs and it comes up in a pop up to print. never had them sent anywhere other than my screen.

I find the answer to my questions can usually be found if i check the FAQ's Before your cruise: $59.95 USD, per person, per day plus 18% service charge*.

Plenty of time to renew. Turnarounds only about 2 weeks.

Isnt that a coincidence Carnival said the very same thing....

Enjoy wherever your cruising takes you. Trying other brands is fine keeps things refreshed

sometimes lives need to be disrupted before they give their heads a shake and smarten up.

Did ya get to kiss a cod?

nope

I was like "why are they signing a deal with a phone company"?? lol

Dont forget the Bananas Foster at Emerils mmmmm

I miss this ship. Looking forward to Jubilee in April.

I agree our cruise to Iceland over the last two weeks was unbelievable.

Sorry to hear that Jimbo, We only missed 1 port in Iceland due to bad weather but made our other 3 stops. Am sure there will be tons of shouting on board but enjoy the cruise wherever it takes you my friend.

Just off Pride and at Supper last night was told Casino gave us 2 Steakhouse Selections which was a pleasant surprise so we both had the NY Striploin. Dropped about a grand on this cruise. But won myself a case of COVID on the last day lol.
