expect to not be able to use the serenity, waterworks, courts, or mini golf and the Legend can't figure out that they should probably enclose and heat these areas on a freezing cruise to Alaska.

Bring nausea medicine for when you are on the open sea. Wear layers because at times the inside of the ship is hot and the outside is cold. Used the carnival hub app to communicate. It was spotty at best but still way better than having no way to communicate. - $5/per person per cruise

I will use Lee, the cruise directors words during the disembarkation briefing to sum-up the cruise. "When you get our survey in the mail and if you enjoyed the cruise, please rate us a ten on a scale of one to ten. If you didn't enjoy the cruise, give us a ten anyway since you probably won't be coming back." As he suggests, I'm not going back.

If flying in to Seattle and you have a day or two before the cruise be aware that the light rail line (subway) comes right into the airport. You can get downtown for $3.00 per person and if you stay in town you can taxi or Uber to Pier 91 the morning of your cruise.

There is no point in boarding early. I would wait until after the rooms are available and the lido deck clears out. No advantage to getting there early.

You will gain a lot of weight if u eat at the buffet every day. We eat at the sitting down dinner at night so our food are being served and not over eating. Be careful of what u charge on board. They only used your room key to charge for everything. It is very easy to over spend without knowing until the end of your cruise. The bingo games are not cheap and within 30 min u can loose $40 easily.

Expect great service and lots of great food and fun

Bring your own blanket for the serenity deck as they have a shortage. Also may need to bring your own ice bucket, they ran short on those as well.

Ports of call make sure you are not pulling into industrial areas where the beauty of Hawaii is missed

Those with COPD should avoid the Promenade (deck 2) which has poor ventilation from the casino smoke.

Even though it's August, take warm clothes. I chose fashion over function and regretted it!

Get to know the layout of the ship and how to get around. Saves time. Go by the ships dailey schedule and plan out your day.

Wait for the ship to get a re fit.

Pick a room that is close to the elevator Aft which gives you easy access to dinning either the Lido or Truffles restaurants.

Have fun. Relax

Explore the cities yourself, and really check the excursions, as some may not be as described.

Get a balcony!
rmtherrell
Explore the ship as soon as you get on. Look for those hidden get away spots.
