I'm going on the Carnival Mardi Gras on July 2 , 2022 still need help.

[@MrDyce-di4bo]

Any advice can't hurt.

[@katcalico9142]

Ya’ll are always here with the practical advice! There are so many silly extra cruise tip videos, but you guys always have practical advice that is actually useful and important!

[@Cloudyconfusion]

My cruise is in 5 days and I have no clue what I’m doing🤣 Currently binging your videos and you two are doing the LORDS WORK. Thank you so much, you explain things easily enough to a newbie to not get lost but the info goes beyond what other videos include and gives really thoughtful tips. Thank you!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

You got this! have fun

[@chyna28551]

I love your videos. I was just scrolling thru and my daughter said let's watch "ya boy Stanllleeeeyyyyy" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I love his intro 😂😂😂

[@LifeWithUsTV]

😂😂😂😂😂 love it

[@akeyah921]

Hey guys! My cruise isn’t until September but y’all are on my playlists I’m making my boyfriend watch 😂

[@DubFamTravel]

I found y’all searching for cruise cash info. After watching 1 video I was hooked and binged watched all 453 of them over the last month. Seeing y’all go from 28k to 31 k subs in a month is amazing. Keep doing y’all thing fam.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Awesome! Thank you because you are a REAL ONE!

[@kaynay6524]

Ok why do I randomly find myself saying “STANLAYYYYYYY” 🤣 I love y’all!!! Amazing advice per usual! I feel less stressed.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Love that! lol

[@bkg1209]

Fantastic tips and very practical advice! On the same token as medications and taking an extra week's worth, make sure to schedule any necessary appointments to get your refills before your cruise! That way you have all you need. Also, schedule your pet care, have someone stop by to water your plants, etc.

[@roseannethomas3271]

Thank you for this video now, it’s very helpful!! What’s cool is that I did some of the things ahead of time!! 😊 Your videos are so helpful!! You’re the best couple bringing this info to us!! ❤ from ☀️SD, CA

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Glad it was helpful!

[@mpmlovinlife]

Hey Lynette and Stanley! Thanks so much for all of the informational videos. The one rule about medicine is so true. That a happened to me coming back from my last cruise. The FAA closed all of the airports in the DMV (Dulles, National and BWI,) they were updating their system. Terrible time to do that. No flights coming or going. We were stuck in Ft Lauderdale overnight. I'd only packed enough meds to get me through the cruise. Luckily, I was able to call a CVS down there and get enough to hold me over until I got home. That was definitely a lesson learned.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

oh wow :(

[@katcalico9142]

That sucks! We had an absolutely horrible DMV/FLL experience our last cruise. We literally ended up going to all 3 airports in our desperate attempt to get on flight (we were cancelled like 5 times) - finally managed to get on a southwest out of BWI the next day and barely made it on the ship! Not fun and definitely keep medication and anything you really need in carry on - learned the hard way. Not fun!

[@mpmlovinlife]

@@katcalico9142 wow, your experience sounds like it was definitely nerve racking. Glad you guys made it to the ship. Believe me, from that experience forward, I always pack 2-3 weeks worth of meds. Rather bring too much than not enough.

[@n7y8c7]

@@katcalico9142 Please watch their Fly to Fun video. I never knew there was such a thing. It will save you so much stress!

[@paigeespinoza8950]

FOR CARIBBEAN TRAVELERS: I found out on my March vacation that Belize (a prev UK territory) is not considered part of Mexico as far as T-mobile is concerned. Free roaming Canada + Mexico is on my plan but in one day I racked up $20 in text charges sending pictures to my husband's while in poet. My geography skills failed me that day.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Great tip :)

[@paigeespinoza8950]

[@Nothingthatconcernsyou]

I currently have 5 weeks until party time on the Freedom!!!

[@Yoromo77]

Best advice ever! We just had our first Carnival Liberty and I’m so grateful to y’all because you truly made our vacation smoother. One thing I’ll add is to buy the round trip transportation if you are flying in, if you have any questions, first call you if unavailable, call the cruise.

[@cruisebuddies7064]

I love you guys. It would be nice to see you all join AK adventures, Rich and Jazzy, and Addy and Terry. Love the melanin 🥰

[@philanddeetravels]

Great info as usual! Didn't even think about the 2-step verification! 🤯

[@garymanning8044]

We've got 3 weeks until we leave on a family cruise and this video is is perfect. I'll be sharing it to our group text. The cash one is crucial... Thanks for the reminder. This one seems like the one thing we always forget. That two-step verification is something I've never thought about. Great point!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

I almost locked myself out of my email but luckily we were in port and I had just enough of a signal lol

I really love you guys help, you are really helping me get ready for a cruise coming in a few months. Thank you ❤

[@familyseitz789]

Ahh! 14days and 1hour till my cruise!!!!!!

[@FunandBudget]

I still do the same - call my cards and let them know where I'm going to be and when - this also helps for if they see unusual charges from that place AFTER you've left...credit cards be on it!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

that part!!! amen to that

[@marlap712]

Ya'll are so fun. I haven't cruised carnival in a few years and I am booked on NCL right now, but I'm obsessed with ya'll's videos. You guys are definitely giving great advice and we need your relatable voices in this space. Keep up the great work!

4:59 if you are already on the ship and have the Wi-Fi package on the phone you may be able to select “try another way” and have them call you if you have Wi-Fi calling turned on. That would be a possible way to get the code.

I enjoy your videos. Husband and I have cruised several times, on Carnival, Royal and also specialty cruises. We are taking one more cruise in August as a couple because he has terminal cancer. 😥 I am assuming that his prescriptions for his narcotics (fentanyl and dilaudid) won't be an issue as long as we have the proper documentation. My advice for anyone in a similar position is to document everything and take a lock box that will fit in the safe of the cabin! Keep up the good work! Much love.
