We are also on the Splendor cruise from Miami to Long Beach! Can't wait!

What cigarette brands are sold on board in the shops? How much are they? Thanks

No it doesn't.

We were on a b2b Jan/Feb. We were able to get the Hess wine on the 1st cruise for free (we had the drinks on us card). However, on the 2nd cruise (Feb. 1), the Hess wine went up to $10.25 and we could no longer get it for free.

There are 2 formal nights. Usually day 2 and day 5.

We are cruising Feb. 1 on the Miracle to Mexico. It is a 6 day cruise. Just got a call from the upsell fairy offering us an upgrade from a balcony to an Ocean Suite for a total of $490.00 for the both of us. I jumped on it!! Never had a suite before.

Yes.

You beat me to posting!! We are on the same Hawaii cruise as you! Can't wait and after the Hawaii cruise we stay on the ship and do a 6 day Mexican cruise.

Everyone over 21 years, in the same cabin has to buy the Cheers program.

We will be cruising with Carnival.

Is there a liquor/wine store close to Long Beach pier? Can you walk to it or take a cab?

 

Thanks

I know that with the Cheers program, there is a 15% gratuity included with each drink order. What happens with the 'Drinks On Us' card? Are you expected to tip with each drink order?

We are not sailing on any casino offer this time. It took about 30 hors to get a response.

I emailed Michael at the Carnival Casino VIP Services. Here's the response I got:

 

We are so glad to hear you are sailing again! You are eligible for a Premium Bon Voyage package! We have placed your details onto our guest list so that the on board team is aware of your arrival. Any in cabin amenities will be waiting for you in upon embarkation.

We look forward to welcoming you on board!

What is the Premium Bon Voyage package and what are the cabin amenities?

Thanks for any help.

We also did the 7 day Alaska cruise in August on the Miracle. No problems what so ever.

 

We are also booked on the 15 day Hawaii cruise in January with you. Then when it gets back, we are taking the 6 Mexican cruise. See you in about 100 days!

We just received our third one since April.

You can get off ship #1 and walk down the pier to ship #2. We did this in January.

We were on a Premiere Casino Cruise in August. We had a blast...cocktail party the first night, travel mugs, chocolate covered strawberries, dozen cookies, champagne, plush beach towels, separate free slot tournament (I won a free cruise for two up to 8 days!), drink card, snowball raffles and the Casino Manager even bought us dinner in the Steak House (with a bottle of wine). We just got another offer in the mail yesterday but we are already booked on a b2b in January going to Hawaii and then Mexico (the free cruise I won).

We were on the Miracle in August and went to the Steakhouse twice. If you go on the 1st or 2nd day of your cruise you will get a free bottle of wine. Go with a big appetite!

You will each need to order 1 carafe to get 4 cups each.

We booked this cruise on February 1st and paid $1,879 pp for a balcony cabin. I did a mock booking 2 days ago and they showed 1 balcony available for $2,749 pp. Yesterday they said that nothing was availabl period. I think it's crazy that they have sold out a cruise more than 5 months out!

We have a cruise booked in August and one going to Hawaii in January. We will be cancelling the one in January. Four and a half days there and four and a half days back is too long a haul to not be able to smoke on your balcony. I really wished they had made one side smoking and one side non smoking. Guess it's back to land vacations.:(

I have a cruise booked in August and one in January. After that I am done cruising with Carnival. I have suggested numerous times to make one side of the ship smoking and the other side non-smoking. I guess we will go back to land vacations.

We were on this same cruise in January. Book port side.

We had a group of 10 on the Breeze in January. We showed up for dinner at 6:45 pm and had no problems. Usually had the same table and wait staff.
