    Texting on Divina

    in MSC Cruises

    Posted

    Leaving tomorrow on Divina. I realize there isn't any free wifi, and I think there isn't an on board app?

    Without purchasing internet, is there anyway to text between passengers.  Would like to be able to send my hubby for my drink, or track down my tween. Lol

     

    If anyone has any questions, I'll answer on Friday or Saturday (12/23, 24)

     

    Thanks

    MSC Divina International charges

    in MSC Cruises

    Posted

    I can not find the thread that I read this on... Can someone confirm if our card will have international charges?

    We sail out of Miami, to Ocean Cay and then Nassau.

     

    I read that all onboard cc charges will go through France, but can't find that confirmation for the bank.

    How do you carry your sign and sail card?

    This was the saving grace for me on the last cruise.  I usually never carried my phone, but with the Hub App and staying in contact with my daughter & husband, I found I used this one over the other 3 styles of lanyards I brought. I clipped a pretty lanyard chain on it.  I got this through Wish.com  really cheap.

    Anyone ever get left behind in port?

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    It is my understanding that leaving passengers behind is not done without consideration. Paging of passengers that have not been recorded coming aboard is performed. With no response the cabins are checked.

    If it is determined that the people are not aboard the crew will go to the cabins and check the safe for passports. If they are present they will be left at the dock with the cruiseline agent (usually listed on the daily).

     

    That helps! Thanks! I was wondering how we would get the pp if a medical emergency occurred. I had heard not to take them ashore.

    Packing a box

    Is it approved to have a box packed for Carnival? We are actually combining our Port Excursion with a Mission trip and taking a box of children's bibles and toys. Would rather not have another suitcase to haul back. Thanks!

    Steakhouse

    in Carnival Cruise Lines

    Posted

    We will be cruising the Carnival Vista over Christmas. We are considering doing the steakhouse one night (possibly the 1st night) I see the MDR is offering my fave strawberry bisque. Would I be able to request it in the steakhouse? Also hubby is asking if he can request more than one lobster tail in the steakhouse as we can in the mdr?

    Thanks!

    A Three Hour Tour....

    in Cozumel

    Posted

    We had hired Gerry as a driver for a day many years ago. From the threads, I'm seeing he is now with Tours Plaza, is this correct? I was looking into having a driver for a day through Plaza tours, but would like the cheapest (ie 3 hours). Would that be enough time to go to the San Gervasio Ruins, El Mirador, and also squeeze in a good margaritta. Do you think I'll need to factor in more time?

     

    Thanks!

    Nassau Questions

    in Bahamas

    Posted · Edited by dvdisney

    We've been to Nassau quite a few times. We've never taken excursions, because I'm the first to admit I'm cheap...I mean frugal. Do a google search for a walking tour, we walked to the queen's staircase and had the map to help with a "tour". We've also taken a horse & buggy ride for a tour. Last year we took the #10 Jitney to the fish camp for the best conch salad EVER, and of course there's always the straw market and downtown shops. We're heading back in Sept, & we're heading back to the fish camp. ScubaGirl is always very helpful!
