Creator's Key Takeaways

we went on Horizon in February as a big group and there was no way of doing this um well you could have called if you're in a group you can call group bookings at carnival but if you have say six eight four six eight people when you want to book a steakhouse you can only book it for your two of you on the booking at the same time

now it's all been fixed you can't see this but in front of me I have my laptop because I made a load of screenshots I'm going to show you in a second and I'm going to talk you through it

did you know that that price includes the gratuity yes it includes the gratuity so you'll see contribute is a zero you can choose to pay extra on the night but the price is inclusive of the gratuity which makes a big difference on the cost

so now you can book these cruises for multiple people you don't have to name them you have to pay in one go though so you've got to make sure that you can get the money back from everybody else going before you do it
