Creator's Key Takeaways

I would urge you as your travel consultant not to do that while it is a little bit cheaper and 99.9% of the time it goes fine the major disadvantage is if something were to happen while you're on a privately bought excursion

if you purchased your Scourge indirectly through Carnival and it does cost slightly more because Carnival does get a cut if something were to happen your tour bus get a flat tire get stuck in traffic etc if you purchased it through Carnival the ship will wait for you

always fly in at least one day prior to your cruise believe me you'll be glad you did

if you plan on going in the water and any ocean in the Caribbean make sure you wear water shoes there are sea urchins in the water and if you step on them you'll get those tiny spines in your feet and believe me they can ruin your vacation

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Go to Carnival.com and start your pre-boarding information as soon as possible
βœ“Set up your onboard account with a credit card
βœ“Purchase shore excursions through Carnival to guarantee the ship will wait for you
βœ“Fly in at least one day prior to your cruise
βœ“Buy water shoes for Caribbean ocean activities
βœ“Inspect your luggage for damage before packing

How does the cashless onboard system work? β€” Carnival uses a sign-and-sail account linked to your door key; all purchases are charged to the credit card you set up.
What if my room isn't assigned yet? β€” Don't panic; if you don't see bed conversion options during check-in, inform your stateroom host on board, and they'll adjust the beds.
