In my opinion the best rooms are midship, balcony or better, deck 6. This seems to be the quietest and stablist area.

In my opinion book direct through Carnival, you will avoid hassles in case there is a price drop.

somewhere on here is a review with photos I did back when we went.

$3 wash and $3 dry. I believe there is a laundry on each floor. We were in cabin 7273 and it was about 8 cabins down from us

I don't like other peoples meatloaf and definitely not restaurant meatloaf but I decided to try it on my last cruise and it was delicious!

Thanks so much. I'm with you but then again DH is thinking he might try it. I myself am intrigued by the Spicy Alliggator Fritters. If we don't like them, we can just order something else :D.

On our last cruise we didn't get to experience the MDR much and the last time we were with Carnival was 2002 so we are looking forward to this trip. DH doesn't know but I also booked us the Chef's Table (it's a surprise, unless he signs up for a CC account and reads this :p)

This is a post worth resurrecting ! A friend and I will be on the Imagination on our way back from the Bahamas for Halloween. I too wonder what's in store for us. I'd like to be prepared, and not miss out on the fun! I think the cruise lines should post any "events" planned for sailings

Sorry about spelling, posted from my iPod touch that loves to change my words!

Unfortunately you are going to have to tote around whatever you decide to carry on. I will only be carrying on my laptop and a small bag/ backpack from now on. Our first cruise ( on the splendor) we had three 12 packs of pop in out rolling carryon along with emergency clothes and cameras as well as my laptop and a tote with all of our "papers" and my purse. It wasn't hard to tote around, but we really would have browsed more.

Most of the people say they simply get onboard, fond a table on lido to "park" their stuff, them someone stays with the stuff while the others get food/ drink, then swap. They just relax on lido until 2, drop their stuff then browse until sail away. It really isn't that bad. I think we were only onboard an hour before the rooms were ready. Enough time for lunch and a drink while relaxing and looking out at the scenery
