Thank you both for your responses! :)

Looking specifically for transportation advice. We are flying into HOU on Saturday August 10. Cruising out of Galveston on Sunday August 11 - Saturday August 17. Flying home out of HOU on Monday August 19. Hoping to not rent a car. What other options do we have? Shuttle services? I saw VIP Express mentioned. May check with them. Thinking of staying near the airport the night we get there but in Galveston for the two nights after the cruise. We would need to get to the port on Sunday and back to the airport the following Monday. Are there hotels near the port that offer shuttles to/from the port? Would we need a car in Galveston for the 2 nights we want to stay there or is the area walkable or is there good public transportation? Thanks for all your help!

We are considering booking a Sailaway balcony for the June 23 cruise to Bermuda out of New York. What happens if the price goes lower, this close to the cruise? Thank you!

Our family of 5 (2A, 3C - 22, 20 and 16) are looking at booking a cruise out of Galveston in August. Lots of questions! We would likely fly into Houston Hobby a few days early. Where would you suggest we stay (area/hotel)? We'd like to explore the Galveston Island area as we've never been. Any favorite places to visit? Thinking it would make the most sense to rent a car at the airport. Are there any car rental returns close to port? Are there any shuttle services from the port to HH airport for after the cruise? Thanks for any help!

We are looking at the NY - Bermuda cruise leaving on Sunday June 23. Very likely taking a bus down from Worcester/Springfield. Considering coming down on Friday and spending Saturday in the city. Looking for advice on where to stay and how to get from the bus station to the hotel, to the port on Sunday for the cruise and then back to the bus station at the end of the cruise. Thank you!

We've never sailed on NCL. We are looking at the Boston - Bermuda cruise in late June for our 25th anniversary. We live in MA. How close to sailing can you book? Has anyone booked a guaranty stateroom? What have your experiences with this been? Thanks for any help and information!

Do the cabins on the Miracle have hairdryers In them?

Anyone have any information or experience with Dr. Frankenstein’s dance club? We have a 19yo daughter who is interested in checking it out. Also, any tips as to how kids in this age group can meet others? Thank you 😊

How dressy do people get for dinner on the Miracle? Trying to figure out what my husband and 15 yo son should wear. Khakis and polos alright for the dressy nights? Should they go with dress pants? Are ties necessary? Thanks for your help!

Thank you!

We are on the Miracle in a few weeks. Which ports have tenders? (Cozumel, Belize, Roatan and Grand Cayman)

We've never gotten FTTF before. Have always been interested in it. Considering it for our cruise in a few weeks. Please, give me your opinions. Thank you!

Thank you!

Looking at your folio in the hub app will tell you how much of your credit is refundable versus non.

Thank you!

Where can I look to see how many ships will be in each of our ports? We are sailing July 15 on the Miracle - Cozumel, Belize, Roatan and Grand Cayman.

How do you know if its refundable or non-refundable?

If I submit a price match for an excursion and it is denied, can I submit another one, for the same excursion, if I find a different company?

My head is spinning! We'd like a beach day - somewhere to relax, food, snorkeling, water inflatables - would all be great. I have looked at Passion Island, Paradise Beach, Mr. Sanchos and Chankanaab. Which would you suggest and why? It would be me, my husband and our two teens.

What happens to any OBC we have if we don't use it all while on the cruise?

Has anyone ever booked excursions through shoreexcursioneer.com? We are looking at excursions on Cozumel, Belize, Roatan and Grand Cayman. Has anyone been able to price match any of Carnival's excursions to theirs?

We are looking at booking some excursions through them. We will be visiting Cozumel, Belize, Roatan and Grand Cayman. Has anyone been able to book a Carnival excursion and price match to a better price using shoreexcursioneer?

I've been pricing car rentals picking up at MCO and returning near port of Tampa. I've priced with Avis and Hertz. Do either of these offer a shuttle? Rental prices are higher than I was expecting so I plan to keep looking as the date gets closer.

I was able to get a little bit of a savings on our July cruise today. I saved $68, which was taken off of what we still need to pay, and we kept our $50 OBC we got when we booked. Every little bit helps! :)

We will be doing the Carnival Miracle cruise in July. It will be me, my husband, 15 yo son and 19 yo daughter. We are visiting Cozumel, Belize City, Mahogany Bay and George Town. We have been to Cozumel and Grand Cayman before. My husband likes to see the island. My daughter and I like the beach but will have two days on the ship for laying in the sun and relaxing. We have done a dolphin/sting ray swim and the turtle farm. We also all LOVED our cabana day on Half Moon Cay. We will probably book basic island tours through Carnival for Belize and Mahogany Bay. We'd like to try snorkeling and parasailing. Looking for your suggestions and why for what to do in each port. Thanks for your help!
