I finally figured out what I was thinking about... on a five day cruise, say Monday morning to Saturday morning, your FULL days are Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri and I would tell people that when they asked me about cruises that they weren’t really 5 whole days but 5 nights and I guess that just stuck in my head.. 🤷♂️

It had to be a long time ago or it had to have changed and then changed back, as I had a 3 day (night) cruise for my honeymoon in 97, which was 4 days/3 nights and counted as 3 points.
Who knows... But thanks for the reply.
-
Right, and five day cruises used to be 4 nights and the 5 day I just booked is 5 nights so something changed since my last cruise
-
Until yesterday I had not booked a cruise in about a year. I noticed when I booked a five day that it was actually six. Used to be, for example, a 5 day cruise was Monday - Friday and now it's Monday - Saturday. I used to sort of complain about the day count being misleading but now it seems to be correct. When did this change? Thx

I did exactly that a few months ago. Me in a cabin with my son, wife in a cabin with my daughter. Bought cheers for myself and not wife, then we officially switched. No issues at all.

They are metal

My experience in Aruba getting off the Sunshine was indeed slow. I think it has to do with the time because everybody is up and ready to go. Once we got in line to get off it was right at about an hour before we actually got off the ship.

I had the opportunity to hear a little about how the port charges work in Grand Turk from a tour guide. He said in GT Carnival pays $20k to dock plus a per head fee that includes the crew and indicated that it was a "lower" fee than others because of Carnival's ownership of the port area.
I'm not stating that as fact because how could I know for sure? But it sounds reasonable to me

My wife and I will be taking my Grandmother, 83, and my Mother in Law, 76, on a cruise out of Charleston. Having never cruised from there I've been reading up on the port, the ship, etc. and it seems parking is a ways away and requires a shuttle. My MIL and Grandmother don't get around as good as they used to and I'd venture a guess my Grandmother would struggle boarding a shuttle. Does any one know if I can drop them off at the entrance instead?
Thanks

What about games ? Do any of them work with the $5/$25 internet?
I was unable to play my Words With Friends games if that helps you any
-
Hi - Did you have to buy the $25 internet package or could you use iMessage with the $5 package?
It's $5 per day or $25 per cruise for the social package. iMessage will work with that package whichever way you choose to purchase it
-
I'm familiar with the ap - but how did you make it work? Bought internet package for all family members? I'm confused - but if I can figure it out I think this would be a great way to communicate with kids on ship.
Thanks!
Each phone/device you want to communicate with on the ship will have to pay for the internet package. Just a side note, if you use iPhone's you don't need Whatsapp because they use iMessage but still have to buy the internet package. Three of us have iPhone's but my son has a Droid so he and I used Whatsapp and the rest of us used iMessage.
-
Unfortunately the calling feature on Whatsapp won't work. I tried it on the Sunshine a couple of weeks ago

Hello, I just replied to your email. I did not receive an attachment.
Thanks
You should have all 8 now
-
Or maybe not. I've done it before but I can't remember how. I'm going to send them to cruiserNC and let him do a Google doc or whatever.

I've scanned them all and they are in PDF format. Unfortunately they exceed the file size permitted to upload on CC so I can't post them. Any other suggestions?
-
Please scan them. I mean as in Posting them on this board.
BLESS you for being so kind.
I'm working nights this weekend and didn't bring them with me so it will be about this time tomorrow night before I can do it. Keep an eye out.
-
I'd also like Sunshine Fun Times, but 8 Night Southern Carib, Aruba, Curacao, Grand Turk
I have those from the May 29th sailing. I'll scan them tomorrow night and post them or can email them or whatever.

Amazing the effort it takes to save a little money but luckily I work night shifts and can check it often and catch that hint that they are about to be available. When I saw "Add to Cart" I was checking every 1/2 hr until it let me check out! Finally got me a handful of them.
Now I'm off to Kroger with two different shopper numbers to get a few from them too. When its all said and done I'll have saved about $150 so I'd say it was worth the effort.

Up to 12 20 oz non alcoholic drinks not 12 oz. And just for info I actually took 12 24 oz pepsi's once and they didn't care too much.

My remark about it being a simple question was more directed to those that were just being dicks about it not those who offered legitimate, helpful responses.
As for what answer I wanted, again, those that opted to be helpful answered my question completely so the answer I wanted was provided. -
[quote name='cruizinisthebest']Your question is simple and the responses have been as straight forward as possible. The policy does not allow for you all to check in together. I'm sure you must have had an idea of such, which is why you asked to begin with.
If the port employees decide to stick by that rule, as you are booked now, no you will not and should not be allowed to board together.
In order to quail any guess work, you can either board with the general boarding OR buy a FTTF pass so that you can all go together in the priority line. That's it. All of that has been stated numerous times.[/QUOTE]
You say that as if I asked numerous times... -
Ok... The wife and I both got a great rate offer. Had we booked us in one cabin and the kids in another we couldn't have utilized that so I got one with one child and she got one with the other thus allowing all four of us to go at the same great rate. Wife is platinum so last cruise with just us two we went the priority route so now I'm just wondering if us, as a family, might do the same thing. It was a pretty simple question I thought.
Anyone denied boarding for not having parental authorization?

I've been on several cruises with my wife and stepdaughter and one of her friends that was obviously not related to us and no one asked for anything from us except the usual documentation. Two adults, two kids, and only the adults shared a last name. Just my experience...
