anyone know if they have Freddy on the Carnival Spirit?

Thanks all. I will wait and see. sounds like I might be missing my cruise detox this time

Hi all. I went on the Carnival Liberty a couple of years ago and enjoyed the awesome Gulten free (Corn Wrapped) Burrito's.....Does anyone know if they have a Mexican station in the buffet on Carnival Spirit

Does anyone know if you can get prue juice in the buffet on Carnival Spirit or even whole prue's for that matter.

Hi there,

 

We will be on Carnival Spirit next week - yay! Our two little ones still have quiet time after lunch with a movie. So we have some questions:

 

Is there a DVD player in the Ocean Suite Cabins?

 

On Pacific Dawn there were free movies playing 24/7 - is it the same on CS? In this case, kids' movies.

 

We have a portable mini DVD player to bring - are these allowed?

 

Are 4 way electrical sockets allowed on board?

hi there, were there movies / dvd's for your kids

Only the suites have bathtubs. Save tons of $$$$$ and just bring a blow up tub to put at the bottom of the shower. :o

Thanks Champagne 123.....what a great idea

Howdy. I'm looking to book a cruise on Spirit for Dec 14. we have an 18 month old and are looking to get a cabin with a bath. Does anyone know if Veranda Cabins have baths?

I have noticed on cruise critic that our American friends have lots of cool cruise groups like cruising with the crazies, buckeye cruises, Arizona cruises etc. etc. that appear to organise group cruises – meet on an agreed cruise etc. etc.

This seems like a great idea – particularly for solo cruises who enjoy their own company but can access group activities, tours through membership of the group

Does anyone know if any such cruise groups exist in Australia, in particular in Sydney ?

good to hear they still have prunes. there nothing like prune detox to counter balance all the over eating....Prune juice just gives that added turbo boost

Prune juice appreciators out there. ..can you still get Prune juice in the buffet if you tip the service guys

Very cool review

On a cruise without your wife. Damn you are one lucky guy! I mean Have fun... :o

yes I admit Im lucky.....just have to make sure I don't miss my wife too much...might have to distract myself with a few beers

So, your father doesnt like your wife and his grand daughter??? I don't get it, and don't need to do so.

no not at all....were attending the Ford Mustang 50th Anniversary Celebrations in Las Vegas after our cruise....wife isnt into cars...etc etc

thanks everybody for all your advice....lots to think about....I think I will do a combination of some of your ideas....book in a pamper treatment for her while Im away....gifts/post cards etc etc

Really appreciate all your kind and thoughtful input

Hi All, so I'm about to take cruise with my very senior father....we flying from Austraila to do NCL Jewell and then Vegas.....you could say a once in a life time boys vacation together....but I'm leaving my wonderful, very understanding wife behind to look after our daughter.

As you might imagine my brownie point bank balance will be majorly in negative after our trip - So I need some great ideas for in expensive gift(s) that I can bring her back to

Any idea welcome

nice very nice

So a couple of years ago we went on B2B cruises with Carnival & HAL….the cruise price was roughly the same, yet HAL was pitched as the “Premium Line” and it was certainly more posh than Carnival…what surprised me was that the price of a full strength beer of Carnival was more expensive than HAL…..which got me thinking that people might assume that Value cruise lines like NCL, Carnival, RCL might have cheaper booze….but perhaps not

Thus I would like to benchmark beer prices…..can anyone out there who has recently cruised let me know what the price of a full strength beer on their cruise was

Full Strength Domestic Beer - Eg Samual Adam Lager etc etc

Carnival

Princess

NCL

RCL

HAL

Celebrity

Disney

being from Australia Im unfamiliar with Mich Ultra....what type of beer is this....is it full strength?

I noticed in the photo of the bar selection that they don't stock Fosters....thanks god us Aussies hate fosters....we just export it to other countries

thanks everyone

sounds like the Lamanai tour is the one to go for

I had issues about a week ago....keep refreshing and asking for log in details over and over again.....I deleted my cookies and it seems to be working now

Hi All

I'm taking the Jewell out of Nola and I wanted opinions on whether the ruins in Costa Maya or Belize are better to visit. I have been to Tulum but want to take my father to see ruins in either Belize or Costa Maya

which would you recommend?

Bret

thanks for tip....I will see what our hotel can provide...the Australian Dollar has tanked recently so I was hoping to find a cost effect shop.....need to save my pennys for the on board liquor bill

yes.......I didn't really think through my choice of forum handle....

We are taking a NCL cruise out of New Orleans, after a 25 hours travel from Australia I was hoping to book my father (78 year old) and myself a nice thai massage pre embarkation……can anyone recommend a good massage shop near the NOLA port…..something tasteful…

thanks a heap - these are great

Cheers
