Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival just told everyone on November 21st that the new Carnival rewards launch is getting pushed from June the 1st, 2026 to September the 1st.

The Cheers drink package just got a little slower. Carnival quietly doubled the wait time between drinks from 5 minutes to 10.

Early morning on November 22nd, a 73-year-old passenger jumped overboard while the ship was sailing through the Tasman Sea.

The captain and the 950 person crew turned the ship around and spent roughly 5 hours searching with thermal cameras.
