Carnival Legend Friday last minute questions
Hi again, hubby and I are going on our first cruise Friday out of NY on the Carnival Legend. We have an extended balcony stateroom on the Verandah deck, category 8G. Does anyone know what ammenities we will have in the room, I know there are bathrobes, I have no idea what else to expect. Also is there a mini bar or just an ice bucket? Do we need to bring extra pool or beach towels? Any other tips that will be helpful to firt time cruises will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! -- Maybe it's all too simple, for our big brains to figure out... What if the hokey pokey is really what it's all about? JB |

Carnival Legend Friday last minute questions
Amenities are hard to predict -- it seems to me that they get
whatever 'freebies' they can for their amenities. There may be razors, there may be a little lotion sample, there may be liquid soap samples. Maybe litle bars of soap. I've never seen the same things twice. No mini bar, just ice. There will be two types of towels -- for in-room use there are bath towels and hand towels. There's also one pool towel per person which you will be charged for if you lose. Too many people took them ashore and abandoned them so now they charge. At the pool, if you want a towel, you give your sign and sail card and must return the towel or you'll be charged. Finding the dining room is a real trick for first timers -- because of the location of the galley. there are maps of the ship at every elevator. Be careful not to inadvertantly buy a souvenir glass -- you can get the drink of the day with or without the glass. Any other questions, feel free to ask...

Hey Brent, how come my room didn't have one? Maybe it
was broken and had been removed, I suppose. There was a large storage compartment that could have held a mini bar. I thought it was rather strange not to have one.

Hi again, hubby and I are going on our first cruise Friday out of NY on the Carnival Legend. We have an extended balcony stateroom on the Verandah deck, category 8G. You'll love the cabin and the balcony. Does anyone know what ammenities we will have in the room, I know there are bathrobes, I have no idea what else to expect. Soap, shampoo, and a bunch of promotional freebies from various companies (e.g., disposable razors, hair products, deodorant, breath mints, etc). Also is there a mini bar or just an ice bucket? Yes (see response from Brentsell). If you want to use the mini bar as a fridge, just tell your steward and he/she will be happy to empty it for you. Do we need to bring extra pool or beach towels? No. Any other tips that will be helpful to firt time cruises will be greatly appreciated. If you are a slot player, be sure to insert your sail'n'sign card into the machines. You will get credits toward cashback comps on future Carnival cruises, and cruises on any other lines they own. Be sure to check out the ice-cream buffets on several afternoons by the aft pool on the lido deck. They are without parallel on other ships. Any other questions, just shoot. Howie Thanks! |

How do those sign and sail cards work in the casino? Does it initially work on a Carnival ship or can it be initially used on a ship owned by Carnival but not carrying the Carnival name i.e HAL SUNNY How long has this beeen going on? S'nd I XXX |

You probably do not need to take a ship's excursion if you do some reading ahead of time. Be sure to check out the ice-cream buffets on several afternoons by the aft pool on the lido deck. They are without parallel on other ships. There's self-serve ice cream and frozen yogurt there 24 hours a day, but Howie's referring to the special ice cream (including hand-dipped scoops if you know to ask for them) spreads they have on sea days late in the afternoons.
