Thanks

I know I can take a rideshare but are taxis readily available as well to the port of Miami? If so are they in a specific spot?

You can use it at any time. I've put in laundry on the second day before.

Thanks

I usually get there between 9 and 10 and I'm platinum. So I'm in the same priority line checking in.

Do they use the gift card first then the cash for onboard spending? Or vice versa? Thanks

Thanks, I actually don't have cards just e-card print out. So guest services it is.

Thanks

Thanks, stopped using my credit cards and don't want to use my debit card. That's why I got the gift card. But it's a solid idea.

I plan on using a gift card for onboard expenses. A couple of questions: Do I apply it at guest services once I board or when I check in at the port? Second, whatever is left over does it stay on the original gift card or do they issue a new one. Thanks

I usually get the Biotech facial and body ritual. It's a 50 minute massage and 50 minute facial combined. Love it and it's less expensive than buying them separately. I've seen it as low as $239 and as high as $299 depending if you book it for day one, port day, or sea day.

Yeah, I was thinking that too. I have plenty of time to decide.

Thanks

So thanks to all who responded to my other thread about train vs plane. I took the flight option as I got round trip flights for $123. Flying into jfk returning from EWR. I'll be taking the cruise line transfers at the end of the cruise but does anyone have a recommendation for a car service from JFK to midtown Manhattan? So many to choose from on Google. I could take a taxi but want to keep my options open Thanks

Oct 2024 which I'm looking for is $57 each way.

Good idea!

Thanks. I always say no to those who solicit saying they are taxi's. I actually had someone at an airport once do that to me. As someone who travels alone it's a no thank you!

I'm fine taking the taxi. It's catching one at Penn station that gives me pause. I understand there's a taxi stand though which helps.

Thanks so much. I've been leaning towards the Acela. I'll just have to get over my trepidation over getting a taxi at the station.

I'd be too nervous to drive. Plus the parking is double the cost of flying and triple of the train. It's a ten night cruise.

Have a cruise booked in Oct 2024 out of Manhattan. Coming from Boston area the day before. Can't decide between the Acela train and flying. It's considerably less expensive going by train but I'm nervous about catching a taxi from Penn station nyc. Any advice is appreciated.

I know our of Miami they use charter buses. Which port are you going to?

Check your vifp rates. I just got an exclusive rate on this cruise which was unbelievable! Ends tomorrow. So if you booked early saver you may get a reduced rate.

It also says it leaves at 1130am

The note above says check the departure board for the coach bay number. It will say Carnival Pride- Dover. I imagine the departure board will be easy to spot at the station.
