Are the inflatables extra or is that included in the all inclusive?

But you would get a lot of responses from people who have never sailed Carnival. And the OP wanted a comparison.

Depending upon the state, it is possible to walk into the health department or department of vital statistics and walk out with an official copy of your birth certificate. My husband had to do that for himself and our children. He accidently threw our birth certificates away after our last cruise. Mine unfortunately had to be ordered from out of state and took 3 weeks. He isn't allowed to be respsonible for paperwork anymore. LOL

He had not ate that day except a veggie blend my mom made and tried to get him to taste. It had broccoli, squash, bananas, blue berries and cashews (cashews were the only item he had never had before). Within 10 minutes he had hives everywhere, swollen eyes and a lot of sneezing and uncontrollable mucus. By the time he got to the hospital 35 minutes after eating they said there was slight swelling around his heart. I will definitely not be letting him eat anything that even sound like nut. Will call carnival and notify them. I know the registration form for Camp Carnival ask but I will make sure I notify a director. Cool dark place for epi pen (thanks got it).
This is a moderate to severe reaction by healthcare standards; however, it is not an anaphylactic reaction, which is what the epi-pen is for. True anaphylaxis is swelling of the tongue, throat, or airway. In cases of anaphylaxis where an epi-pen is used, almost all patients require a second epi injection before the reaction is completely resolved.
Benadryl is a must as well as Pepcid. Both are antihistamines, but they act on different receptors. Make sure the pediatrician is aware of the travel plans. Get their recommendations.
Good Luck and safe travels.

Last cruise we traveled with a party of 16, 10 adults and 6 children. On two nights we were placed at 2 round tables that seat 8. All other nights they put the square tables together.
We did have to wait about 10-15 minutes most nights, as you would at any other dining establishment.

Our daughter was 8 on our last cruise. She ate off the regular menu almost every night. There might have been one night where nothing appealed to her.
She is looking forward our cruise this fall. She wants to try their calamari, one of her favorite foods. And yes, she does know that it is squid. She also eats her steaks med-rare. So not the typical child to be sure.

Pretty standard. They are trying to spread out the crowd as much as possible. There is no reason to change your plans at this time.
I would only adjust my schedule for weather or verified issues at the port.

Will the pools be available the first night? Swimsuits for the kiddos in carry on or packed.
The last time I cruised on the Conquest, it was docking in Galveston after Katrina. The pools were filled and ready to go upon boarding. Previous cruise out of NOLA had the pools closed and empty until the next morning.
