Just remember that an emergency on your part does not make one on the US Embassy.  US Embassy and Consulates are closed on US federal holidays and on that country's holidays.  In order to get you credentials to get back in the country, they have to get permission from the State Department in Washington DC.  They don't act fast!

We leave next Saturday , there was no time for her to get a passport.The3 cruise is a last minute trip. Thank you for all your info.

Do you think she will need to bring her marriage license?

My niece was born in Guam in 1970, in a military hospital,  do you think Carnival will except her original  birth certificate?

Just wondering if Carnival still has a water dispenser in the gym, that you can fill up your own water bottles?

Thank you for the info. That's good to know

  Part of the deal I have for our cruise, is we get free drinks in the casino while we play. Just wondering if it will be possible to get bottled water.

Exactly how does cashing out at the casino work?

Grandson got several carnival gift cards for graduation, maybe more then he will spend.

Do we need to make reservations for 1/2 day?

We are taking our 2 grandkids on a cruise in June

I have Carnival gift cards for both of them that I want to put on their sign and sail card, so they won't have to use our credit card.

Can I do this before the cruise or on the cruise?

Thank you

Thank you

We will be cruising on the Horizon in June. This cruise is to celebrate my grandsons graduation. 

He has been on 2 cruises and has loved them, he has always made friends and had a lot to do. Now that he is 18, he is worried that there will be nothing for him to do.are there  special things for that age group?

Thank you

Great review!! We will be cruising on the Horizon in June. This cruise is to celebrate my grandsons graduation.

We are cruising June 2019 for my grandsons graduation gift. He has cruised 2 other times at 12 and 15. He made a lot of friends on those 2 cruises, but he is concerned because of being to old for the kids club, there will be nothing for him to do or meet anyone.

Did your sons meet a lot of other kids their age?

Son and daughter-in-law going on their 1st. cruise alone. They have a question I can't answer. With the Cheers program if you some how drink all 15 drinks can you purchase more?

Also they say water, sodas energy drinks, special coffee,etc. are also included, but is this part of your 15 drinks?

thanks for any info.

When the Carnival Paradise was a non-smoking ship. We saw a couple left on the dock in St. Thomas,we thought it was because they were caught smoking on board.

We also stayed there and walked to the port, no problems. We ended up doing a lot of walking that trip because the weather was pleasant, and we also did a hop on hop off bus tour to get a lay of the land and see some sights. The hotel is your standard Embassy Suites with the manager's reception in the evening, and nice breakfast in the morning.

 

Enjoy your cruise. :)

Thank you for your response, I think we are going to try the streetcar. Also I read about a tastebuds tour that we might try.

thank you so much, that makes me feel better about staying there.

I have booked 2 nights before our cruise in December at the Embassy Suites Convention center.Would like any input you might have on the hotel. The reviews are so, so.

I did get a pretty good rate with Expedia.

Anyone know how the rooms are? I was told by the hotel that it is within walking distance to the port, has anyone done this?

Thank you

We stayed at the Embassy Suites near the Convention Center, and walked to the pier.

I know this is a older post, but wanted to know what you thought of the Embassy Suites, We have reservations for 2 rooms for 2 nights in December, before our cruise. Alot of the reviews are not so good. I got a rate of 89.00 per night, 2 room king suite. Also how was the walk to the pier? There will be 4 adults and a 15 and 7 year old. All input would be great.

Thank you NOLAtravelgirl for the info. I think we may go with KLM Transportation,because they will only charge us $7.00 for the 7 year old.

We will be cruising out of NOLA this December.

Trying to find the cheapest transportation from the airport to the

Embassy Suites Convention Center.There will be 4 adults and 2 children, ages 15 & 7.

Emailed Taxi finder and we were told it would $45.00 + tip but wew would need 2 taxis.Also said weget a

a Maxi Taxi. Has anyone ever heard of this? I can't find any info on them.

The cheapest I have found so far is $ 77.00 + tip.

Thank you any info would be very helpful.

Thank you for the review, sailing the Dream in December.

My question is how much of a discount did you get on the couples massage?

Not sure what to do in Montego Bay,thinking about staying on the ship.

We are taking our son and daughter-in-law with 2 grandchildren on their first cruise in December, our 5th cruise. I seem to be the only one excited about it. They want me to do all the planning, that is all I want to talk about.Only 204 days to go!!!

Thank you for the information JohninDC
