Do You Really Need Daily Steward Service?
ray98 replied to April42749's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Ehhh....no. I like fresh towels, ice and a freshly made bed. It is an integral part of what is a service based experience. -
News stations on the Carnival legend.
ray98 replied to DaCruiserFromtheATX's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
CNN is it. -
There just isn't the demand. On our cruise last month the line was completely empty after 5:30.
-
.....only if you pretend the cost of the product is the primary factor in it being profitable. In my restaurant days the more food costs went north of 25% the larger the probability you won't make it into the black. The overhead around providing that product is where the majority of the customers tab goes.

Correct. I have no idea why some think it is a high category inside.

Fun way to carry my phone on the cruise
ray98 replied to BEEZALAR's topic in Cruise Fashions & Beauty
Ok. -
....but the higher category would actually be an ID. Still a FWD cabin but on decks 10-12. Look at the Escape for example....mid ship and higher is the prime insides which are IA's. IF is worst....lowest cabins which are either FWD/AFT. Category.....Deck.....Location.....Avg Per Person IA....13,14,15....Mid$899 Located on a high deck. Sleeps up to four. IB........11,12......Mid$889 Convenient mid-ship location. Sleeps up to three. IC......13,14Forward, Aft$879 Located forward or aft of the ship. Some triples and quads are available. Some connect. ID.......10,11,12......Forward, Aft$859 Located forward or aft of the ship. Some triples and quads are available. IF........8,9........Forward, Aft$849 Convenient location, some on the same deck as The Waterfront.

Also....I think you are backwards. An IF is their worst inside cabin, an IA is the best which are mid ship on the higher decks.
-
....because deck level isn't the sole factor in deciding the value of a cabin.

Can you bring your own beach chairs?
ray98 replied to CruisingWithTriplets's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
We usually bring some of the stadium seat things to sit on if we plan to go somewhere without facilities like we do in many ports. I don't mind sitting on a towel but I like having a back rest so it solves that without being bulky. I also have a small sun shade that folds up to nearly nothing. All is light and no hassle to carry with you. The seats actually fit in my backpack and the shade is small enough to carry because it is a little shorter than a bag chair. -
LOL....I think some on here will be claiming PTSD just for looking at the photos. "Where is my compensation Carnival?!?!"

Does anyone else think the "FunShops" are terrible???
ray98 replied to missholly24's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Well.....I think their goal is to have a gift shop with a wide variety of items instead of a department store. They don't have the space. -
Why stop there?
-
Outside.
-
There is no such thing as a 'chain cruise line'. They all aren't selling the same pair of shoes. Although similar, they all offer a brand specific product that have countless variables even within their own brand which have their own associated costs and value. All this proves is you are looking at a complex mathematical formula with emotion only which keeps you from understanding the business model. The market sets the price, bottom line.
-
Of course it isn't true.....
-
Some people should just stay home huddled in their safe space.
-
I just got off last weekend also. The huge TV in the cabins is great but the channel selection sucks so it was really of little use.
-
NCL changed the entire industry, before it was all the same. Eat with strangers at a specific time, hungry or not.
-
LOL. ok....you are right....we get it.
