Nice pics!

We do not get deals from carnival and feel like they take us for granted since we have hundreds of days on their ships. We find ourselves booking less and less with them. Who do you prefer?

Agreed, it wont be the last time.

We just received our email cancelling our 9 day freedom cruise for march of 2024. Time to go shopping again.

I've been on several cruises since the restart and it seems like they give whatever they have on hand. We got an 8x10 photo album, some luggage tags, lanyards, a carnival cup... very random...

Yes, and my RU1 package carried over to the "new" booking

I agree with the above poster, I think I asked once corbitt but there was a charge.

Just refrain from calling it a gun. They will not let you take anything resembling a gun onboard, not even a small gun keychain. Call it a massager not a massage gun if they pull it out of your bag at the security checkpoint. Calling it a gun will cause you trouble. 

It's been fun, like before covid. No key west though.

I dont speak any German and do not know anyone that does. That being said, I want to book on Aida for that reason. I think I can pick up visuals as to what is going on and go with the flow. Is this a bad idea? Regardless, I have my mind set on it. We have been on well over a 100 cruises but none that are not primarily english speaking and I think this will be fun.

Not yet for us.

All of my cruises have been removed. I'm hoping I dont have to enter them all manually, I might forget a couple.

I have made the decision to stay onboard a few different times, but always have to call Carnival to book it, or do it online while onboard. Just some advice, dont wait until the last day to do so, unless you cant help it. Sometimes there are some extra steps involved if you book it within 24 hours of the next sailing.

Never had an issue with them moving luggage to new room. 

Time will tell. They can do many things but nobody knows what they will do in your case. 

I usually just book two connecting balconies and have them open the balcony divider. It's perfect for the two of us.

With the anytime dining you will just all go the dining room when you are ready. No reservations needed. I'm not sure about the specialty dining linked. Keep in mind too they may have to accept your "linkage".

The morning of, right up until they dump the manifest and load the new one. 

They are not even coming after their own loyal guests, why go after anyone else's  loyal guests?

I think carnival must still be deciphering or waiting to see also. It looks like their cruises being sold changed in early January or December to only UK ports. Maybe later everyone will have more clarity.

Sounds too complicated to cruise at this time. My MSC trip with a similar itinerary was cancelled.  Are they selling them again?

That pool pictured above is on deck 9. They almost always have the roof open. The hot tub up fron inside the gym is long gone. the pool on deck 9 aft is the same as the mid ship lido pool, no DJ, not many kids, but they do play music. They serve alot of drinks there, and the restrooms are right inside the door, but I hardly see them leave the pool. I wouldn't call it serene.

If you follow the long instructions above you will get off the ship about 10 and walked back up. If you want to leave and walk around leave when they start debarkng and take your in transit card and sail and sign from the first trip. These exact instructions as above by the poster and the ones as I described will be delivered  to your room.

Thanks for the review!
