  1. When off the ship we ALWAYS take our passport.  Does you no good on the ship should something happen.   Also take phone on airplane mode for pics, small bills of cash, and one credit card (just in case).  I have a backpack that we take and always have someone right next to it anyplace we leave it (beach, pools, etc).  It is NEVER alone.

  2. We have been on several cruises and rarely have gotten price drops....until our next cruise.  We booked Early Saver and are now past the final payment date.  We still have about 75 days before sailing and the ship is not sold out yet.  My question is can I still get price drops as OBC for Early Saver even though we are past the final payment date?  What rates would I compare them to?  previously, there was always an Early Saver rate showing.  I know I can't get price drops to match the new booking rates only but can IO get them for other rates?  just wanted an idea of what others have experienced before sitting on hold for 30+ minutes only to be rejected.

  3. We have been on the Sunshine twice and saw the comedy shows every night without problem.  Sure you can't get there just as the show is starting but then again how often can you go to a movie theater as the previews are ending and not end up in crappy seats.  I remember only waiting in line one time and that was for maybe 5 minutes.  We always got good seats.  All it takes is a bit of planning

  4. I don't understand why it is so hard to just wear a nice paid of Khakis and a button  down shirt.  I totally understand the no suit and tie deal as I don't want to wear that either, but jeans is just lazy.  I hate going to the super nice restaurants here locally and see people in jeans in and t-shirts.  It doesn't ruin my meal or anything but people these days just have zero common sense.

  5. Anyone on the Breeze recently buy alcohol at ports and have it delivered to room on last night?  Previously on other ships we had to pick up on debarkation morning.  Trying to decide if I should just try not turning it in if I must retrieve it on Debark morning. 

  6. on our last cruise, my wife and I had Cheers.  We tipped an extra dollar in cash each time we got something.  We made sure to try to go to the same bartenders and it really helped.  No matter how many people were in line, the bartenders would come right to us and wait on us first.  My time is worth more than the dollar I tipped extra.  I was on my merry way in no time while all the cheap people stood there and waited.  I would do it again on the next cruise too!

  7. Non-Carnival excursion are usually considerably cheaper and much smaller groups. I prefer not doing excursion with 50-60 of my not so close friends!!! Ever excursion we have ever done was not a Carnival excursion and they were all much smaller in size and cheaper than the ship excursions. We usually leave first and arrive back at the pier around the same time as the ship sponsored excursions.
