Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Not to stray from the Adventure topic, but Celebrity doesn't force you to go through the casino to get from one end of the ship to another on the casino, there's a path along side it. On most RC ships you have to pass through to get to the entertainment complex, unless you go cross ship on level 5 and then go down.
  2. The restaurants and other areas of the ship are fine, but if you are gamblers, he will have a hard time navigating the casino. He would be better off using a cane in the casino rather than a scooter or walker, and if the restaurant you want requires you to go through the casino, or you want to go to the theater, make sure you go cross ship through level 5 - avoid trying to pass through the casino.
  3. How does one find any site? I found it by googling cruise ship photos because I wanted to see pictures of a ship I was considering beyond the ones the line themselves were showing. Perhaps the OP Googled no sail list. It really doesn't matter how they found the door, and still doesn't speak to their legitimacy.
  4. a) youd disappear too if rveryone piled on with victim blaming. b) The first day I 'officially' joined (I had lurked for a while), I spent a lot of time going through threads and responding. The time one dpends posting has no bearing on legitimacy
  5. It sounds as if this scammer stole someone else's cc to book trips, asked you to pay him cash and skipped with your money. The person whose cc it was noticed the charge they did not make and disputed it. That charge to CCL was associated with your booking. That's how Ponzi schemes work. In my earlier post, I gave you s link to the executive contacts at CCL, find the post and contact the execs. Customer service cannot help you with this.
  6. I would suggest that you bypass customer service and go directly to the executive contacts listed here with any and all documentation https://www.elliott.org/company-contacts/carnival-cruise-lines/ you can also look aroynd the wrbsite. The guy foes travel advocacy and I read in a revent column that he assisted somebidy with getting off a do nit sail list. Not sure, but it mught have also involved Carnival.
  7. Im not talking custom, I'm talking about theit standard air arrangements. The price of the airfare gets added to your cruise fare and the book your flights 75 days out. If several parties make arrangements to cruise and are on different bookings, you can have the reservations linked, and they will fly everyone together. I sm assuming here the took the FAS fare, which you can't utilize on custom arrangements. They won't give a refund if the OP decides to make alternate arrangements, so they will have to pay full price for new flights AND eat what they already paid. If NCK is eilling to make the chage, that will also cost them, but probably not as much as doing it on their own. I have found NCL's air dept to be the least cooperative/sympathetic of any of the cruise lines...and they are downright nasty about it.
  8. Usually after booking the cruise, if parties have different booking numbers, you should link the reservations before the air reservations are made. Linked reservations are booked together, as long as everyone is booked/linked orior to 75 days before sailing. They don't book the air until 75 days out. Your only option now is to try to get them to change the reservations by explaining the necessity of having the assistance. They may be willing to do it for a hefty change fee.
  9. In most of ships they are, since it is required to pass through to get to the theater or dining room (depending on which deck it is on). And this particular casino is a nightmare for the mobility limited.
  10. It's small, crowded and badly arranged. There is no clear path directly through it and if you are with a walker, skooter, or wheelchair, it is impossible to navigate. Unlike its sister, Explorer of the Seas, which has the same basic configuration and size, but feels roomier because it is laid out differently.
  11. When I spoke to the woman who told me what happened, she said that she told the guide he should have given his number to the group, but his response was that he was not allowed to--which seems ridiculous to me when it is the kind of tour where people are separated. Should have at least given the phone number of the tour operator, who then could have gotten in touch with him. As a matter of fact, I am beginning to think the tour operator's contact info should be right on the tickets.
  12. I am aware that we were probably not where everyone else was. The best I can figure is that we were in the right place, but not in the exact spot where everyone was supposed to meet. We were early so we went to the center of the square to sit on a bench, but we had a view of the general area where we the guide was supposed to show up. I guess we misjudged our line of sight, because we saw no one from our bus, and it was probably compounded by the fact that there was a long line to the entrance of the Alcazar which may have obscured our group. I have no expectation of compensation from NCL, but it would be a nice gesture, if it was to come.
  13. I actually did take a photo of the port agent info, wasn't sure if they would contact the ship in that instance, but I was going to try, but then we decided on the uber.
  14. I usually download the cruise document to my cloud drive. I know somewhere buried in there is a way to contact the ship. I was hoping if we could contact the ship, they could either tell us where the guide was or tell the guide where we were. I guess I downloaded them to my computer at home and not the cloud.
  15. The scariest thing was that we didn't take our passports off the ship, and I was worried that if we missed the ship departure, we wouldn't be able to get out of Spain.
