Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival blocks Wi-Fi calls and texts. So for me that was really problematic because I am taking some college courses

The majority of people on here are 60s, 70s, 80s. So, yes, there's a lot of scooters. Yes, there's a lot of walkers.

The portions are small. On night two was on the menu was a duet. So the duet is fileing young and beef short ribs.

The roach situation is dead and over. Um, you know, I had to turn the light on just to make sure that it was what I thought it was.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Always double-check email confirmation for pre-cruise purchases
โœ“Bring water off the ship at ports
โœ“Have a passport book for Panama Canal cruises

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Weโ€™re officially halfway through our 14 day Panama Canal cruise on Carnival Venezia, and this is a real day 7 check-in. Iโ€™m talking straight to the camera about how the cruise has been so far, including the food, the overall vibe onboard, and the average age of cruisers on this sailing. I also break down what weโ€™ve spent at the three ports weโ€™ve reached so far, what the weather has been like, and how this itinerary is shaping up compared to expectations. Yes, I address the roach situation in our stateroom, and important update: Guest Services actually called us to check in and confirm that pesticide had already been sprayed, before we even had the chance to report it ourselves, because the stateroom attendant handled it immediately. I talk about Diamond level dinner on the Lido deck, pricing realities on a longer cruise, and clarify that we are not going through the Panama Canal locks on this itinerary. Our next stop is Colรณn, Panama tomorrow, and Iโ€™ll be sharing footage, coverage, and information from that port once we arrive. I also explain why a passport is required for this cruise and what travelers should know before booking a Panama Canal itinerary. This is a mid-cruise, honest update for anyone curious about longer sailings and Carnival Venezia specifically. ๐Ÿ“ฒ BOOK your next cruise with us: https://hwthbookings.cruisebrothers.com Email hwthbookings@gmail.com for booking!
