Thanks for the reply. I really appreciate how thorough you are during your reviews. I am now considering NCL and Princess because of your reviews. Carnival should be sending you the free cruise offers because of your influence.
I am not a drinker, do the plus packages on either line make sense for a non drinker? I don't have any issues with Carnival, however, I think my DW wants to try other lines.
We had 14 people on our last cruise all linked together prior to the cruise. We all had any time dining. There were 2 nights where we all ate together at the same table. I simply went to the restaurant in the morning and they reserved a time for us. All we had to do was show up. The other nights we selected who was coming to diner and did the any time dining through the app.
@TxTeach79 I think my DW would love to try Princess. Did you get a casino offer for princess based on your play at Carnival? I have really good casino offers right now from Carnival so it is hard to try another cruise line.
It is a glitch with Carnivals hub app that sometimes allows Iphones to send text messages without purchasing a wifi plan. On our Miracle cruise in February to Hawaii and Breeze out of Galveston in July I was able to send messages without any issues. No videos or pictures. On our cruise a couple of weeks ago on the vista I was not able to send messages after the 2nd day for some reason. So it is hit or miss.
We didn't have any issues a couple of weeks ago getting off of the Carnival Vista. They had 2 lines, passport and birth certificate. You collected your luggage after customs. Facial recognition was working. I am surprised that Princess has different procedures than Carnival.
Last week @Saint Greg had issues with beverage charges. Do you think it is because people are giving their room numbers at the bar and they are keying in the wrong number?
The room service menu is different then the one on the app. The only way I could find it was to scan the QR code in the room on the desk mirror. This menu has the breakfast and other items
I know I said it before, but I agree, you are a saint for being a teacher. Also, you should get extra points for teaching junior high. Thank you for doing God's work. I hope you enjoy your cruise.
