Thanks so much for your response. After further research, we ended up booking a Havana cabana on deck 5 … exactly for the reasons you listed. Thanks again!

Looking for pros and cons for Vista Havana aft view extended balcony. Specifically cabin 7454, if possible. Thanks!

Thank you! 😀

Just curious, is your balcony fully covered? Thanks!

So happy to see another Jeff and Patti review! I’m looking forward to the adventure!

Are you unable to get in because it’s booked up when you attempt to make a reservation at 7:45 or because you don’t want to eat that late?

None of this makes sense. I realize you said you didn’t know the exact amount … anything $1200 and above generates a hand pay and a tax slip is issued. The win is paid out via cash in hand or a slip you take to the cage to redeem. If she truly hit a jackpot … The only way the money could still be in the machine when she left would be because she deposited the money into the machine after she received her money. I further understand that the jackpot she hit could have been a large amount.. but not enough to lock up the machine. Also, whenever you pull your card and leave the machine, the credits automatically deposit into your “casino bank” on your card … even if you don’t hit the cash out button. I don’t see that it’s possible for the credits to stay on the machine after the card was pulled. Please don’t misunderstand me, I realize the information you’ve relayed is based solely on what you read on FB. Not blaming you at all. Just a very confusing tale. edit … after rereading your post I see that the credits didn’t automatically transfer on three different occasions while you were playing. This is a problem that Carnival needs to address.

I’m currently on the Breeze. I find the beds to be too firm. I miss the squishy old mattresses!

Thank you!

Very helpful, thank you!

Is there truly a limit to the number of gift cards you can apply to you Sail and Sign account?

The value package will give you access to FB messenger. Not everyone in the cabin has to get it unless they too want access to messenger.

Just to make sure I understand correctly .. I assume you had the phone in airplane mode. Did you turn off cellular data as well? Thanks.

I enjoyed your review! Thanks for sharing your cruise with us!

What did you think of the Lyre’s drinks? Which drinks did you try? Thanks!

I’m so sad that your cruise is ending. 😢Thank you so much for taking us along with you! Safe travels!

AT&T offers 2 cruise packages. 1) unlimited talk and text for $100 2) unlimited text and 50 minutes of calling for $50. You will need to go on their website to see if your cruise ship is on their Carnival list. These packages are for calling/texting while on the cruise ship itself. You’ll still need the international day pass for the ports. Another option to stay in touch on the ship .. each of you could purchase the social Wi-Fi plan and be able to iMessage each other (and anyone else that has an iPhone) with your iPhones. We found this is more reliable than their chat feature.

I do not. But I do have a discount code for Port of Galveston parking lots. SPRINGSAVINGS23. Good for $10 off your reservation. Must be booked by March 31 for future parking.

Good point! 🤣

Carnival changed the rules … again. You are allowed to pre-order 1 bottle for the room.

Yum, that sounds delicious!

I’m voting for a debris po-boy from Mothers! 😋

Following along … looking forward to another great review!

I very much enjoyed your review! Thank you to both you and Patti for all of the hard work you put into these! 😀
