It depends on the specialty restaurant. For example, Jijis, each person order 1 app, but it came out big enough to share with the table. Steakhouse was a little tighter and didn't let us get 2 on Mardi Gras, but did on Miracle.
Carnival is using the COVID excuse as the reason they can't fly you to the next port on the cruise. I haven't been impressed with F2F anyway, they canceled my flight, blamed the airline and put me on inferior flights. I canceled with Carnival and booked directly with the airline on my original flights for less than Carnival was charging.
They usually start releasing dates around Oct-Nov, however, there is supposedly some news about dates being released soon. Not sure which itinerary or ships, but it sounds like they will start releasing more starting soon.
I had no issues uploading pictures with the social plan.
One thing I will note is that i as still getting notifications from apps that i couldn't connect to with the social plan, like ESPN.
A friend of mine enjoyed the Bayou Smoke from the Fortune Teller bar and she is a big fan of old fashioneds. Not sure if it was an old fashioned or just something she liked.
I've been seeing this request pop up a lot lately and I doubt Carnival will do anything about it. If you don't remember what you booked, its easier for them to not give it to you.
Could be the end of "Sunshining" ships.
I think they will get rid of the rest of the Fantasy class ships before Sunshine. They pretty much redid everything during the transformation, so the only thing that wasn't redone was the hull.
Been fine after my 2 cruises. In fact my entire group of 12 cabins in November stayed healthy and my group of 6 cabins in February were fine afterwards as well.
The previous posters covered the drink package question, but you are backwards on your cabin category. 8A would be a balcony on the end of the ship on the lowest deck with balconies(excluding coves) and the 2nd deck with balconies in the middle of the ship. 8B would be on the 2nd deck ends of the ship and in the middle of the 3rd deck with balconies and it keeps going that way. 8M and 8N are usually aft facing extended balconies. 8K might be extended as well but on the sides of the ship. 8K isn't seen as often.
I would do the starboard side. When I was on Mardi Gras in November, they had a soloist right there and he stopped playing around 11:30. On the port side there was a band and they would be playing after the Fortune Teller bar closed at midnight.
