Yowzers!  I had no idea that many people would dress up for Halloween on a cruise!

 

Would you say the majority of the passengers dressed up, or more of a case of for everyone who did, they tended to congregate in one or two areas, and the rest of the ship was full of non-costumed guests?

 

Now considering a Halloween cruise in 2020...  (Can't go in 2019, already have a cruise booked in September!)

Looks like so much fun! We did a cruise once that ended ON Halloween, but, a lot of people dressed out on the 30th, we didn't even think about it.. next time!

We were there, and it was honestly 80% of the ship. Kids had trick or treating & it was a caravan party that started in the Comedy Club, moved to Ocean Plaza, Love & Marriage Show and then Deck Party. The Deck Party was one of the largest I have ever seen & everyone there was dressed. Even some of the wait staff had costumes.

I don't know about the Majority, but on all of my Halloween cruises, if I had not dressed up, I would have felt left out. You should definitely do a Halloween cruise and by all means wear a costume.

Where were you when the list happen? I was in the Comedy Club and on deck too, you are so right, it was one of the largest deck parties I have seen. What was your costume? My husband and I had on matching tee shirts that said, I'm here for the BOO's.

Maybe I am mis-remembering, but I thought that costumes with masks that cover faces were not allowed (due to the potential for abuse - sexual or otherwise)?

Carnival FAQ about Halloween costumes says this:

 

"Guests may wear masks only in special function areas and guests must be identifiable. Masks must be removed when in common areas."

Our port hole cabin...

Thanks for your review!

 

This is possibly a dumb question, but are your windows open?  It looks like they might be, but I assumed port holes were fixed and you couldn't open them.  If you can, I might reconsider a port hole 🙂 Either way, it looks like more of a view than I expected.

People have always wore mask like this, even back when I did a Halloween cruise in 2010, they don't enforce this rule, I guess.

Not open to where there is fresh air, if that's what you mean, but you do have some sort of view to see outside, they cost a little more than an interior but much cheaper than an Ocean View.

They never enforced this rule, and I have been on three Halloween Cruises, the one back in 2010 was no different, these type of mask were worn.

[pacruise804]

Fresh air is what I was hoping for (but doubted was likely), but the view might still be enough for certain itineraries.

 

We've always sailed in balconies and our next cruise we are trying a Superior Ocean View on Royal (huge cabin) since we will have our kids with.  If we don't miss the balcony too much, we might try a port hole for even more savings.

I just loved those photos. Thank you for posting. And as a cat burglar? You were as cute as a button!

Hello quick question:

 

Did Carnival or anyone announce how many degrees the Sunshine actually listed?

 

Cheers
