The facts are pretty silly, but fun to read. I was just actually reading them now.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What?!?!?!? No Bloody Mary's??!?:eek:

Please help!! We have 1 day/nite in Miami after our cruise on July 5th. Looking for something with a "tropical resort feel" - nice pool with outdoor bar/restaurant poolside, prefer on the beach or at least with beach access, kid friendly (we will have our 13yo son with us), walking distance to some shopping (high end not necessary!!) and bars/restaurants? We've never been to Miami or surrounding area so have no idea where to even start looking. Not interested in being around the South Beach night life. We have an EARLY flight the next morning!! :( Thanks!!

Looks like it's a $270 savings for me. Form submitted....Keeping my fingers crossed!!

Got It!!!!:D

Cruise critic is sucking the hours out of my days!!! And I still have 60+ days til we sail.....I'm doomed!!! :D

Does anyone have a scanned copy of the Fun Times for Key West, Grand Cayman and Cozumel on Breeze? Booked for September 2014.

I'd like to see this too!! We're on the June 29th sailing!

Thanks for the reply, but I'm still not seeing it...:confused:

...does it state the rate at which the booking was made (i.e. ES, kids sail free, fun select....etc.)

We have stayed at Holiday Inn Port of Miami, Intercontinental and a couple of others. Now we usually stay near the airport and the name of the hotel is failing me now. If you need I can look up and I'll let you know tomorrow.

If you don't mind....:o

We aren't flying home until the day after our ship returns (July 6th). Having never been to the Miami area, I have no idea where to look for a hotel that keeps us in close proximity to the port and Miami airport. Maybe something on a beach??? Or with a really nice pool??! Anyone have any suggestions?

What port? Most cruise lines, you have to be on board one and a half hours before departure. They have to provide the port with a manifest of all passengers for compliance.

What time are you expected to land since you have a late morning flight? You have to be onboard usually by 2:30-3:00 for a ship leaving at 4:00pm. We have sometimes flew in on the day of the cruise, but taking the first flight out of PHL on SW, which is usually at 6:30am to MCO (going to Port Canaveral or FLL going to MIA). This cruise we were all set to leave on the normal flights, but they were either sold out, or the price jumped up more than usually, so we opted to take early and midday flights out on the day before.

We are scheduled to arrive at Miami Airport at 11:58am. I've booked our transfer with Carnival so I'm hoping that helps too.

We are flying in the late morning of the day of our cruise (June 29th)....please tell me this won't be a problem!!?!?!?

LOG on to Manage My Cruise and go to my billing. Use the $ amount on the top of the right hand side. This is your cruise rate before taxes, port fee and whatever....... you will need to know what category you booked. If you are unsure you can check on deck plans on the carnival web site. An example would be balcony cabins are 8B or 8D.

 

That is the hard part and you only need to do this for the first time.

 

Then you will go to the fare viewer and fill in the correct info.

It pays to check often. I had over $700 OBC on a cruise last year and haven't had one penny drop on the next cruise.

 

Best of luck and happy price drop finding

Thanks everyone!!! This is what I was looking for!!

Oh so new to this!! Can someone tell me how I go about checking for reduced rates once my cruise is booked?

You guys do AWESOME reviews!!! I keep going back to your last Pride review. We sail on that one in 143 days!!! Your review is what keeps me going!!! :D
