Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm talking about no refunds on your deposit no switching to a different sailing if something comes up and not even being able to choose where your cabin is

download the carnival Hub app ASAP so you can keep track of all the fun and excitement happening on board

Carnival only has those candy ones that don't really do the job because they start to dissolve in your drink

40 minutes is all you got to save that chair and if you leave your stuff there unattended the staff can swoop in and move your stuff

Creator's Tips & Advice

Read the fine print on promos before booking
Get a passport and bring it on your cruise
Purchase travel protection
Download the Carnival Hub app before sailing
Join cruise ship groups on Facebook
Pre-book specialty dining
