Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Have had an ocean suite on hold for Madi Gras. Going to pay the deposit today. More then we're used to spending compared to other cruise I don't feel to bad. $3500 for 3 of us.
  2. I found the pool decks way to crowded. Lucky the Havana solves that issue but not with a kid.
  3. We love Vista class because of the Havana. Not sure we could cruise that class without that. We did magic last year and had a great cruise. But after 8 cruises with carnival in excited to try a completely new ship in madi gras
  4. So have we, but we're ready to try one of the new ships. If our son wasn't with us we would be on horizon in a cabana.
  5. If we decide to pull the trigger on this 6 day it will be $1k more then we have ever spent on a cruise. I just keep telling myself that even at that price point cruises are still our best bang for our buck.
  6. Yeah it's just strange we always book this time if year without any problem. I was shocked when I looked at the prices of RC double what we would pay with carnival. Ncl was a decent amount more as well.
  7. Thanks for the great insight!!!
  8. I just extend are courtesy hold on our cabin for madi gras. We're from Maryland and love the convenience of going out of NY. But we won't do Vista class unless we can have the Havana so ny was out for us this year.
  9. Well not everything, but hopefully I got your attention. We cruise every year in August as my wife is a teacher and runs a summer program. Our window is the first 3 weeks of August. I would say for the most part we always book this time of year for our August cruise if not a little later. I'm floored by the limited amount of availability. We were looking to go on the madi gras or celebration and they are almost completely if not totally sold out. Something else that doesn't help us is the fact we need a room with occupancy for 3 because our 6 year old is coming. Pricing has also went up since last year but I guess that's no surprise as everything is up. So what gives. Is this a post Covid rush and people just wanting to vacation again? I guess my best bet is just to keep an eye out and hope some rooms open up.
  10. One of our most memorable and fun cruises was on the Liberty 10 or so years ago. We had an awesome cruise director that really made the cruise. I went in nervous only sailing the mega ships prior to this but man we had a blast.
  11. Strange, completely opposite of what we had. Wonder why the change?
  12. Sounds like you were a lot luckier then we were. Much better movie selection as well. On the day when only one movie was shown do you recall what time it started? My main complaint wasn't really about not having two movies but having them start at 5:30 or 6 pm. I understand that deck parties are important for a lot of cruisers. I assuming they just started them earlier then usual on our cruise, which is why the movies had to be shown so early.
  13. I believe the only deck without through access is 5. So if you go up one deck you should be able to walk the entire distance to the front of the ship.
  14. I have never seen him mention CC. Although I don't really follow him closely. I will say any time he post a complaint from someone, people are vultures on the comments defending him and carnival.
  15. Between this and my review thread seems like a ton of people enjoy the Dive In Movies just as much as I do. Maybe I should forward this onto John Heald? Also wondering if anyone else has anymore feedback if these changes are happening fleet wide or we just lucked out on the Magic.
