Venezia 1st cruise out of NYC to Bermuda June 15

[shof515]

Today is Venezia first cruise out of New York and first cruise to Bermuda  

 

Embarkation at the terminal is somewhat disorganized.  At the terminal they check the boarding pass documents first when you walk into the terminal, then security and then boarding the ship. Make sure to have the boarding pass printed out on paper. A digital copy is not accepted.  There is a separate line to print out a copy if needed.  they can be a long slow moving line outside that terminal that can snake down to the other piers.

Have a great cruise!  I'll be on her Monday.

USB ports by the bed and desk. 2 us plugs and a euro outlet on the desk and by the TV

 

Room feels very spacious

I think the best port embarkation experiences I have had have been in Baltimore, New Orleans and Port Canaveral. The most aggravating were Miami and Seattle. We had a similar experience where we needed to show our boarding pass at least four times, AFTER checking in at the desk, before getting on the ship. With today's technology there is no reason for that to slow down the boarding process. Appears New York could be added to the aggravating list.

Norwegian sails out of the same terminal weekly and they are more efficient and organized with the checkin process. It's very strange how different carnival is

 

Lines were toss at around 420pm

 

Tug boat on stand by if needed

Connected to the ship wifi, dear Google where am I?

Italian style fun

I've sailed out of NY over a dozen times and always found it to be one of the easiest ports (other than Baltimore).  

 

Looking forward to Venezia this winter and hope it's as easy as it ever was!

[shof515]

Here are the fun times for today. I also received a tote bag

[shof515]

My multi port USB charger does not fit due to the mirror. Lucky I have a small 1in extension cable for it. I prefer to use my own charger instead of the USB ports in the room

If it's like other Carnival ships, there may be a euro plug under the head of the bed too.

Aloha.  Thank you for taking the time to post about your vacay. Having been born and raised in Manhattan, I have been blessed to sail from NY to Bermuda and elsewhere many times. Sailing under the bridge is special and you will enjoy Bermuda. Have a great time!

Have a great cruise

Ship time changed by 1 hour. Only notification in the hub app. It's not in the printed fun times or a card left in the room. Time change could confuse some people today

 

When checking my account in the hub app I noticed a 58 dollar charge that got reduced to 0 dollars. I wonder what this is for.  very curious

Believe the Bon Voyage is things for you room when you first board (decorations or tasty treats).  Must have realized you did not order it.  We board when you disembark.  If you happen to notice at lunch, does the Seafood Shack have asian food?  It did on the inaugural.

Deck 3 is the atrium, guest services, shore excursions and the mid ship dining room. Not that much on this deck 

 

 

At the back of the ship is the aft dining room only accessible by the aft elevator/stairs

 

 

Lots of seating in the atrium 

 

This is also the deck used to get on/off the ship in New York

Deck 4 is the main theather , shops , casino, hero tribute bar, limelight lounge and upper level of the aft dinning room

Deck 5 is the upper level of the theather,  shops , specially dinner restaurants,  piano bar , gondola lounge that is like ocean plaza and the Carnevale/terrazza area 

[shof515]

Aft dinning room has the gondola and a piano 

[shof515]

Deck 5 has a great outside promenade deck with lots of seating on both sides of the ship. The front wraps around, the back does not due to the terrazza area 

 

On the starboard side is the la strada grill
