    I just ordered from eMed - the expiration date was November 2022. We will be using them for our Feb. 14th Elation cruise as well as our Nov. 20th Equinox cruise. We are flying out on the evening of Feb. 13th and will test the day before. I am also planning on a last-minute test before we head out to the airport on the 13th, using one of the free tests our state provides.

    Check your expiration dates again, my test kits specifically state 11-06-2022.

    How did you pay? and did you pay direct to carnival?  I paid using gift cards and they had the wrong address so took even longer to get my refund.  About 5 months and only when I pushed for supervisor and up the chain through the various departments.   Now that was back in 2020.

     

     

    Paid directly on-line with Carnival and with a credit card.

    We were booked on the Panorama for Dec 31st. Due to the Covid fiasco, we canceled on September 24th. We were told that refunds would take 60-90 days to process. We are now on day 104, and counting. Is anyone else experiencing extended wait times for refunds? Thought I'd ask here before calling Carnival and spending hours on hold.

    I'd called a long time ago. We cancelled our 12-26-2021 cruise on 12-24-2021, and had a full refund (trip-excursions-steakhouse) credited to our credit card on 12-29-2021.

  4. This past August we did the $141, saved the money. You'll have plenty of time to walk around Skagway (it's not that big) and see the Red Onion Saloon and anything else you'd wish to see.

    Booked on the Dream tomorrow - hope it's windy enough to blow away the fog  🤠

    And a VIQ (Very Important Question): Is the terminal building heated? We drove down from Minnesota, so we've got plenty of warm clothing - clothing we did not intend to bring with us on the cruise. Our boarding passes are for the 10-10:30 time slot, but we've never boarded a cruise ship before 11:30. If I know we're goig to have to sit in an unheated terminal building for an hour or more, we might have to reconsider our attire

     

    just to let you know, our 40-50's with wind might feel colder than yours same temp  in Mn.

    UPDATE:

    Full TOTAL refund from Carnival, including excursions and steakhouse,

    Able to cancel parking minus $15.00 admin fee,

    Able to cancel pet sitting fee at no charge

    Able to cancel Victor Bodden tours in Roatan, no fees 

    All in all, not to bad for cancelling two days prior to sail date.

    Thank you Carnival.

    PS wait time for an operator was only 1:37:07 hours.

    Again, Merry Christmas y'all

    LAST UPDATE"

    Checked my C/C balances this morning and Carnival has REFUNDED ALL back to the original C/C.

    I took less than a week for the funds to be refunded. This is much better than March 2020. BTW, parking hit the books as well.

    WIshing y'all Happy New Year.

    We got up this morning, had the discussion. We decided to take our home test, we both passed. Then we said, "let's flip a coin, heads we go, tails we cancel, it was heads. Then we said two out of three. That being said, we canceled the dog sitter and have been on hold with CCL to cancel our cruise. We were lucky enough to go to Alaska in August and the Caribbean in October, so why take chances of not be able to make ports of call, and/or being stuck in our cabin for a week.

    The good thing is I'll be able to play golf next week.

    Y'all stay safe and have a Merry Christmas.

    CC Rider......BAHAHAHA....that Reindeer Fart was sooooo good!!!!  We loved that cruise!!!!!  We are doing great, taking a little 4 day cruise to celebrate my friends 60th birthday.  She is a big gambler so I am trying to get her to start going on cruises with me.  

    Y'all be safe, haha! Yep that was a good cruise, could have stayed about 3 more days. We were on the Dream two weeks ago, had fun, casino sucked for me, wife hit another royal flush on video poker. That is two cruises in a row she's done that, maybe I need to leave the gambling to her.

    For those who have been on cruises, and I am sure it varies from port to port, what have been the time ranges from which you have been able to select.  Do you remember how late the last check in times might have been?

    I completed my check in time a couple of days ago for our 10-31 sail date. Our ship sales at 3:30 pm, and we opted for the last slot available which was 1:00-1:30. So even if they want you there an hour before sailing (2:30), the latest check in time is 1:30. I guess that is wiggle room for really late comers and time fo them to prepare the manifest for whomever.

  11. Got back 8-24-2021, was on the Miracle. Leaving Seattle our route took us west of Vancouver Island and we stayed in open water (first night was a little rough). We entered the passage just south of Baranof Island and stayed inside until we left Ketchikan later in the week. We did do Tracy Arm, lots of small icebergs, no problem for the excursion boats.

    When I received my self tests through the mail, there was a barcode on the outside of the box. I scanned it and found that the date for the self tests have been extended for 12 months. My dates for expiration was 10/2021. The FDA has granted and extension for all of the tests if kept at room temperature for an extra 12 months. Hopefully everyone has this on the outside of the mailing box not the test kits themselves.

    Ditto, with the extension for 12 months, however it is a QR code that you can download and a letter is provided. .

    When are reservations available?  We are booked on the Vista in January and I don’t see any dining reservations available. Is it too early?

    It wasn't showing on our Miracle trip either. What I did based on past experiences was I emailed the Maitre'd direct and ask him.  They have one, it just isn't showing on the website. We ended up have two Chef's Table nights on our cruise. It is still a very popular event.

    Good Luck

    Hi all! I ordered the 6 pack bitax from the website. I can use this on all 6 guests right? (the box is here I just have not opened it yet)

    When I ordered my test kits from EMED, the website asked if it was for one or multiple individuals. I check multiple individuals. I then had to give the FN and LN + DOB of each individual that would be taking the test. I ordered it yesterday, said to be delivered before 8 PM today. That's all I know on the subject so far.
