They do in some places like Ft. Lauderdale. They were just out there asking who needs a ride. Will look at reserving one at Long Beach then.

It's on Saturday. The location is open. I'm interested in Avis. So the only question is do they shuttle from their office to the port or do I have to get an Uber. Tried calling them but no answer.

Are there car rental companies at or near the port in Long Beach from which you can walk to the ship or take a shuttle? I know not all ports have car rental places nearby... I wanted to get a car in LA and then day of cruise just drive to the port, drop it off and go to the ship.

Are there shuttles that you can get on the spot that go from Long Beach port to LAX?

Almost everything is USB now. Something like this works great, just bring USB cords https://www.biglots.com/product/white-4-port-usb-wall-power-strip-charger/p810372477?pos=1:2&Ntt=Usb+charger Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Update: Carnival guest services replied by email and processed the refund. No questions asked. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Do you have a mobile app for your card? I found it to be the best way to find/add offers on any card. You should have offers section there. Depending on your card / issuer the interfaces could be different Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

I never said that either [emoji10] The only reason why I'm mentioning Princess is because I like the Medallion system and wish it would be used everywhere for things such as checking towels out and back in. Point is that anything else would be better than writing this down by hand then manually entering it elsewhere later. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

They have the email address listed on their help page here https://help.carnival.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3222

Never. Where did you see me say that?? I was saying how I like the medallion system where you can just wave it to pay for things or check things out / in vs scanning or pen & paper

Right and on the debarkation day there was no charge for towels on the final statement so makes me wonder how days later they somehow think that a towel is missing. Their system is outdated. As someone mentioned why not use scanners....or Medallions which I really liked on Princess

Has anyone had this issue - being charged after the cruise for a towel that you supposedly took and didn't return? That is what I saw just now - a charge for what amounts to $22 on my credit card. When leaving the ship the statement had a credit balance. It's not a huge deal and I am sure they will remove it - especially since I don't have any of their towels. I emailed them / will call them. However, how often does this occur and people get charged without even knowing about it? Carnival towel checkout / check in system is horrible. It was all on paper with one poor worker trying to do that + 100 other tasks on the Lido deck. With us, we only checked out 2 towels throughout entire cruise on Lido and checked them back in - again its all on paper... All other blue towels were brought to the room without us even asking for them and if we used them they were all brought back and left there.

FYI: If you have another user on your AMEX acct then they should have this offer through their login as well. I essentially got $150 back from this offer by paying $350 towards the deposit then doing another $350 using my wife's card who is the additional user on my primary acct.

FWIW you could try this offer for purchasing excursions online. It worked for me last year when Carnival/Princess had similar deal. I bought excursions and internet plan with the offer added and got the credit. The charge for excursions/restaurants didn't look any different than reservations Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

Yes. I just paid $350 on the existing reservation and immediately got an email from AMEX confirming the use of offer Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk
