What was the motion like on that deck? I have an upgrade offer from Deck 10 interior down to Deck 4 in a family harbor.
@Cheapskatevacations4 күн бұрын
Family harbor is located midship and there’s no motion issue whatsoever. We really enjoyed staying there. Even when it was super rocky outside with all the waves- our room was nice and stable. Highly recommend that location!

I really appreciate you filming a bit during embarkation. I'm a first time cruiser and it helps put my anxiety at ease to see as much as possible ahead of time.

I’m so happy the video helped ease your anxiety! Cruising is my family’s absolute favorite way to vacation and I hope it will be the same for you! All our troubles literally melt away the second we board a cruise ship. I hope you have an amazing trip and come back for many more! ❤

What time do you recommend boarding Jubilee to avoid crowds? I’m doing a side-by-side with Dream
@Cheapskatevacations2 ай бұрын
I always do the earliest possible boarding as soon as I am able to reserve the time. It’s never been a long wait for me. If you park in the express lot you will have to walk by the Dream terminal to get to the Jubilee terminal and there will be a crowd regardless of time. But if you park somewhere across from Jubilee’s terminal you should be fine.

This is a good video. All clips are thought out from start to finish. The ship is really attractive, there is a place for mothers to spend time with their children and a good gym. I think it’s worth spending a few days in such an environment and relaxing from the hassle of everyday life.

Did you notice more up and down motion being on the front of the ship?

Honestly the rocking wasn’t bad. What was bad was actually the docking at ports where there was a lot of loud banging heard when they were tying down the ship at every port.

Yes, the kids get their own cards and do not need additional forms of ID with them when accompanied by parents off shore. So you don’t need to bring their passports or birth certificates with you ashore. 😊
@Cheapskatevacations4 ай бұрын
Thank you so much! We took our drivers licenses, ship card, beach towels and some cash. That’s about all we really needed. It’s less developed than other Mexican ports so many vendors do not take cards. Some take pesos but will gladly take dollars just download the currency conversion app ahead of time so you can make sure you’re paying a correct rate. We hope you have an amazing time there! The weather should for sure be a lot warmer for the beach!

I have been getting a lot of comments on a number of my videos from people assuming I am a travel agent. I am not. All my videos are 100% non promotional. Our experiences on a cruise are as we dealt with. We aren’t promoting any cruise line and do not get paid for any sugar coating. All my cruises I get from my land based casinos as well as from Carnival Player club. Though free, I still pay for taxes, port fees, and full price for our children when we bring them. As well as any gratuities, beverage packages etc… so when I say it’s free- the free part is just the cabin rate before all else. The purpose of these videos is to create awareness of what to expect. NCL isn’t cheap. So if you chose to spend your time off work there- perhaps consider exploring every cruise option available to you to ensure you spend your extremely valuable time off work somewhere where you get the most value for your money and best experience possible. Honestly, I spent about $1800 on this cruise with the cabin fare being free. I wish they didn’t force the unlimited drinks and 1 “free” specialty dining on people. Because if you refuse it your fees and taxes are somehow still enormous so you might as well buy their “deal”. I just booked a casino offer for Princess today for a free balcony stateroom which cost me $648 with getting $400 back in onboard credit. So $248 for balcony for 2 people on Regal Princess for New Years 2024-2025. Now that is a deal by definition! So yeah- sorry for the rant, but I haven’t been this disappointed with a cruise in a while. I feel so sorry for the people that had to experience it like I did and not have an option for a “do over” for the only time they had off work and need to wait a year before the next vacation that hopefully is a lot more enjoyable and you are able to see shows without having to line up an hour in advance and have more than 2 tiny pools to choose from to be marinating in with 50 other people at the same time. I just returned from doing back to back Carnival Breeze and Jubilee and now I’m even more upset about the NCL Breakaway. My best friend took a cruise from NY on NCL Getaway the week after mine and had the exact same horrible experience. So apparently it’s not ship specific. As far as their casino- it’s a non event. Barely any popular games available and none of my favorite ones. Carnival Mardi Gras has one of the best casinos and the Breeze is good too.

For someone who got a FREE cruise you sure are pretty negative, especially being a travel agent. At least you were able to get away for a week on a free cruise and did not have an inside cabin in the middle of a storm. Find more positives. I would have thought of using you as a travel agent had you been more positive and professional!

I am not a travel agent. I get free cruises from casinos where I live.
@Cheapskatevacations5 ай бұрын
People need to be aware that there are other cruise options that provide a better experience and value for their money spent. I will not go back again even if they paid me. Again, I am NOT a travel agent and out of the 22 cruises I’ve been on 3 were terrible. And 2 of them were on NCL on this ship. The other was Celebrity Infinity. Infinitely horrible. My husband and I both lost weight on that one.

Thank you so much!! I was a tad nervous myself as well since my last (and first ever) Carnival cruise was in 2003. I too cruised primarily on Royal with a few with Princess, Celebrity and NCL. It’s funny because I switched to Princess from Royal after I had my first child because it’s a lot more calm. Then when she got a bit older and I had my second daughter I suddenly wanted to be entertained and have all sorts of activities. So I went back to Royal. However it has gotten to the point of knowing RCL ships too well and the food being the same every time I got a little bored with it. So in 2019 I booked Carnival Horizon, but then COVID happened. So I took my future cruise credit and the second they lifted restrictions I went ahead and booked the Mardi Gras. I am so glad I did! This is the most active ship I have ever been on! So much is happening around the clock! My favorite part was having multiple comedy shows daily which don’t repeat as well as magic shows throughout the cruise! And there definitely is no shortage of various places to eat! Not enough time to try them all! I really hope you love it as much as I do! Also, if you want to get really good seats at the Grand Central theater- the ones right by the stage on Deck 6 are roped off up until about 30 mins prior to showtime. So just wait down there and as soon as they open them up go and get the best seat! 😊

Wow, great tour & loved to hear your thoughts on your first Carnival cruise! We started cruising in 2015 when our kid was little & love cruising but have only tried Disney & Royal Caribbean so far. We are booked on our first Carnival cruise for New Year’s- Mardi Gras. I’m a tad nervous about it but hearing great things overall!

Today was a very difficult day, and I turned to the Internet to take my mind off my problems. There was no peace on the Internet either, full of politics and terrible footage from Ukraine and Israel, a story about the banking crisis and a possible food shortage. I was about to close my laptop when I came across this video. I like this young family. In the most difficult moments, they release videos with a positive outlook on life. This is how we all should live. Love, children, grandchildren, and grandparents, the family exists outside of politics and outside global upheavals. This is real life itself. And the rest is a media trap to sell something or scare. Thanks, guys, you made my evening happy.
