Browncafe cruise 2017

[old levi's]

The Celebrity Martini Bars have Flair Bartenders which put on shows, it's fun to watch and a great place to get to meet other people on the ship.

That's just wasting time, that drink should already be in front of me.

Well for us, we've got a lot of loyalty members points because we've been cruising on these 2 cruise lines for 25 years, so we usually get a couple hundred off and some perks for booking on board.

Thats where we are with Carnival. You go often enough, you start to get really good perks, and you can never switch! We're doing a B2B next month. The first leg will be my 25th Carnival cruise, and the 2nd leg will be Donnas 25th. For each of those we get 25% of the cost of the cruise back in OBC.

Yeah it's really hard to ignore those loyalty discounts and perks. They lure you in because you get more for your money with them than for similar itineraries on other cruise lines.

All I can think about is when the cruise ship breaks down on the news and people have to poop in a bag and leave it in the hallway. Half the boat gets some kind of bacterial infection. No thanks!

Where’s your sense of adventure? YOLO. Lol.

Just think of it as a few more dirty diapers.

Nothing like a bar so crowded and slow that it's impossible to get drunk.

Speak English, FGS!

Sorry! Umm...

B2B = Back to Back (2 cruises in a row)
Leg = One cruise of a B2B
OBC = On Board Credit (Money you can use in their shops & restaurants or to buy land excursions, etc)

Cheryl, did you know some cruise lines will match your loyalty level? I have friends who are Diamond on Carnival, and MSC just gave them their top level (Black Card?). Think it's called "Status Matching".

Didn't know that. We're pretty happy with Celebrity and RCCL, but that is an interesting option.

Status levels? First, second, third and steerage?

Just like Titanic. Ship goes down, you're in steerage, you go down with it!
