I have booked my 1st 7 day cruise Sept 15 /_ 22 for our birthday 2024 and have already booked and learned so much can’t wait to use what I’ve learned

[@natasharodriguez8461]

Y’all put me on to uplift! Went on a cruise in Jan, paid it in full and now going on another cruise in October lol first time doing 2 a year thanks to you both!

[@michellew3441]

A balcony is so not important to me but it’s very important to my best friend, we plan everything together. She NEEDS her balcony and I could care less, some things matter to I one and don’t matter to others. Pick what works for you and who you’re traveling with. If my cruise is more than a week then I think I need a balcony, maybe, maybe not, something to think about

[@Sanjay-yd1jq]

First time cruiser. I was afraid to go,but now I'm convinced, that I will have a great time. Thank you for all the wonderful tips.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Our pleasure!

[@brendasollers9750]

I'm glad you talk about not to buy knew things to wear,I do buy new clothes everytime I go out the state even for my cruise. I know next time I won't BECAUSE I mean every single time waste my money it make alot of since

[@bronzefox9035]

We just got off our first cruise. We went on Explorer of the Seas. We did not get any beverage packages. The lemonade, orange juice, apple juice, and fruit punch was plenty. We did order 24 water bottles. We did not do any specialty dining. We wanted to see how the "free" options were first. We had no complaints. We will do specialty dining next cruise. Our excursions were fun and well worth it. We decided to cruise 2 months from departure. We did the guarantee room where they pick it. The We did the upgrade paid for $100 to get an ocean view. They took our bid. It was a bigger room and we loved the window. We did get 1 wifi package so we could face time the hubs. Communicating through the ship app was easy. I am the queen of motion sickness. I was very surprised that I did not get sick. I did have sea legs when we got off that ship. We was at the hotel in Miami and it felt like we was floating. We are going to try Carnival next.

[@shaya_21]

Went on my first cruise in June. I chose interior on deck 2, mom chose balcony on deck 6. So i was able to get a feel for both. I don’t think I’ll ever NOT get an interior. I loved how dark it was and my room stayed soooooooo much cooler than hers, and she even had 2 big fans in hers. I’ve got 2 more cruises booked, both being interior. Only way i wouldn’t book interior is if i got a free suite 🤣🤣🤷🏻‍♀️

[@jaytpharaoh8411]

I definitely almost bought a bottle and 2 packages of water but I ended up getting cheers. I paid 2k roughly with 2nd Tier internet/cheers package/1 excursion/interior cabin(I picked my spot). I’ll let y’all know If I got a bang for my buck

[@tammythibodeaux1280]

[@amandabradford9952]

I heard you could call carnival and they will let you downgrade to the lesser drink package if one doesn’t want cheers package but you still have to get the cheaper.

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Nah that’s not true. Royal does.

[@sandrabell1142]

On my last carnival cruise I went to the casino and so I have a offer from the casino and we saved about $2000 off of the three cabins that we booked for this next carnival cruise so you can get something for gambling in the casino and for us it’s just fun

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@lbanks1164]

I would love to see videos/lives/vlogs about marriage life as it pertains to travel. I know y'all don't do "relationship content". You do travel content. And I love it! But maybe you could talk about how you compromise when your travel styles are different or when your personal needs at the moment differ from your partner (ex: maybe you just closed a big account at your job so you're exhausted and you're looking forward to just relaxing but your partner was looking forward to adventurous excursions). How you learned to trust each other in unfamiliar travel situations (cruising and other forms of travel). Times when you travel separately? Maybe you have a girls trip. Did you both develop a love for travel at the same time? Or did one of you have to drag the other kicking a screaming and then they learned to love it too? (my situation!) Maybe one person likes QT with bae while the other prefers travelling in large groups with lots of friends? I might be asking for too much and I'm sorry!! Either way, y'all have a new fan for life! And I'm just soooo excited to see a travelling couple that looks like me and mine! Appreciate y'all so much.

[@michelleclark8099]

❤Thank you.

[@tellison109]

Y’all taking all the fun out of the “first time cruising”experience! Let us experience all the foolishness 😂 Like that first baby got the fancy crib and diapers. Y’all not right lol. Me n my husband going on our first cruise in June and everything y’all said don’t do…..we did 😅 We got the Cheers, the steakhouse, the balcony, internet service, the pixel package and an excursion 😩 My husband bought an entire new Adidas wardrobe for this. Shirts, shorts, hats even down to the drowns 😭 (I didn’t even know they had adidas drawls) 🤣 I’m not even gone talk about the foolishness I bought lol. Y’all, let us be great! 😂

I’m getting ready to book at the first of April for a Carnival Glory 7 day Bahamas cruise next February. It is a family cruise, so around 10 of us going. My hubby, youngest daughter and my brother will all be in an interior room. Lol. I may need to take my Xanax.

[@lashuntaystevens5901]

When you said..book a 4 day not the 7 day trip..that hurt my feelings 😂😅..but everything y’all said was the truth, if you want to just cruise, book guarantee interior, bring your drinks, stay out casino, talk to yo fam when you get back. Enjoy everything that’s included in your cruise fare. We’re going on Celebration on April 2..wish I was going on y’all’s sailing. Sailing during hurricane season has always treated me great… Thanks for info ❤

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Exactly!!

[@moetdrisdale7766]

I'm going on my first cruise with my boyfriend as his first cruise, too. We go on in 2024 in Oct 25 -Nov we got a inter cabin..We went with a travel agent my things is I just want with a person and I pray she got me right for it....But we are very excited and scared too.

How do you know which restaurant is specialty and which are free?

Hey Fam! here is link to Carnivals dining option. The one that have $ Additional are the specialty restaurant that cost extra. www.carnival.com/cruise-food

[@hydiedeer8110]

So you mentioned that they will not allow Taylor Port wine; which I did buy. So does Carnival have a allowance in wine alcohol content. I have a Gloria Margarita Wine and the alcohol count is 13.9. Will I be allowed in with this?

Yep, a year in advance is always the move

[@MonacaMartin]

Question! I’m new to your channel and cruising! Took my first cruise in January 2024 on Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas. Was a free cruise and now I’m hooked! We’re looking at a Carnival cruise later this year. If you don’t purchase the drink package, is there a 24 hour limit on your drinks? I usually go heavy on 1-2 days of vacation then don’t drink the rest of the vacation 😅. Thank you for all of the info!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

24hr wait?

[@aaronferguson2123]

Im from Nassau ❤

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Heyyyy

[@leeleesmith9638]

The carnival excursions have a lot of awful reviews and a lot of people say that are very rushed and not worth the money or not as advertised. :(

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Definitely gotta go with the good ones

[@leeleesmith9638]

@@LifeWithUsTV hi Lynette question.. has anyone ever paid you with pay pal credit? Since I’m already working with someone I cannot pay directly through the cruise line. How does this work?

[@cwatkins6098]

Can visa or american Express gift cards be used on the ships?

Are you planning on doing the 8 day itinerary on the Carnival Celebration in September?

No, we haven’t 😢

[@Drea20-x4f]

I’m taking a cruise on Sunshine. ? For the Cruise Elegant night, do you have to pay for specialty dinning or is this in the regular dinning hall?

[@LifeWithUsTV]

You pay for specialty dining always but not the main dining room

[@Drea20-x4f]

@@LifeWithUsTV I’m sorry what I’m asking is on cruise elegant nights is it in the main dinning room or is it specialty dining. I’m asking to see if I need to pack a cocktail dress..

[@brendasollers9750]

Do they have count off time on ship for Restaurants,I eat more at night for some reason lol

[@InSpaRaeShun]

Don't avoid the casino..... Casino guests get free cabins with carnival not only that but you get higher onboard credit, fun play cash to play in the casino and free drinks for you and a guest anywhere on the ship. have your fun!!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

Yep because you prepay for your cruises in loses. The house always wins.

I wanna skip the wifi.....I have international package on my phone.....is there phone service at the ports? Will I be able to at least use my apps like email?

[@m.c.8096]

QUESTION: Going on our first cruise in September. On Magic heading to Bermuda. First thank you sooo much for all the information! You all have made me feel much more relaxed and prepared! Here's my question. We will be in Bermuda for 3 days, 2 nights. At night is there a curfew to be back on the ship? Or can we come back at any time as long as it's not the day we are deporting? Thanks again!

[@LifeWithUsTV]

I’m not sure honestly

[@patriciadavismoore4310]

Instead of the drink package, we bring our wine/champagne, mixers and purchase a bottle of Jack or rum from Carnival. We were in that group that was protesting when Carnival tried to stop offering the bottles. Glad it’s still around, it’s most economical for those of who drink not “drank”. Also, get a guide book to learn more about the ports ( ex: Cruising the Caribbean), look at the reviews of excursions and watch KZbin videos and judge for yourself if a self guided, private or ship tour is best for you.

[@bizzyfit2128]

Okay friends, I can live without a balcony, but I need an Oceanview at least.

[@carolstephens1486]

Hello can you please tell if I don't get any internet packages can still just messages my hubby on the boat just incase I get lost lol😮

It really depends. I would just focus on those things that makes their mobility better. Choose the ship wisely and book a ADA cabin to fit their needs.

[@brendasollers9750]

Question, are you still able to get drinking package with a child in the room and the person will be different?

Can that 750 ml be liquors or just wine

Wine or champagne
