Alaskan Cruise Info

NickTurnon

I had the most incredible time when I went on my last cruise. Being a young guy, I didn't really care about the "quality" of the ship. I was more concerned with having a cheap great time. So I chose the "dreaded" Carnival Cruise for a 7 day trip to Cabo. My best friend and I paid $397 each for a balcony room with 2 beds. I spent a couple hundred on alcohol at the clubs and at the Premier Steakhouse. But my total for the 7 day trip was $580. I can't beat that anywhere...

I have gone on 2 cruises now, Norwegian & Carnival.

I wont even try to compare the two because Norwegian was a much older crowd then Carnival. And the quality of Norwegian was better.

Although, I LOVED the food on carnival. When people say you will gain 10lbs, they arent kidding. Every night I was ordering the all inclusive lobster and steak. Chocolate souffle with ice cream, creme brulee, roasted chicken etc.. Loved that it was all free. Breakfast,Lunch,Dinner,Snacks. 24/7.

To help with your alcohol, I hope I don't get arrested for this somehow:
Carnival allowed 1 Bottle of Wine per person, as well as 12-12oz Bottles Of Your Choice


There is 6 12oz bottles of Svedka Vodka
6 Cokes for Mixers because we weren't going to buy the soda wristbad/card.



Here are my 12 -6oz bottles of Rum & Rasberry Vodka

We purchased the cheapest water bottles at the store and bought another set so that we could get the tops off the bottles without removing the seal.

We cut the tops off 18 water bottles and boiled their caps off. Youtube how to do this. Really easy..

Anyways we put the brand new caps back on and placed the water bottles back into the original shrink wrap from the store.

We made it all the way onto the ship and our bags took a little longer then usual. We thought we were screwed... Sure enough, they noticed the drinks but let us know that we passed




We spent the 7 days mixing vodka with the free juices they gave you in the morning and with each meal. A small bottle lasted most of the day. We actually had enough to throw a small party with some sorority chicks from San Diego State.. Ill say thats a success

The free room service provided us with sandwiches and lots of cookies so we can store them for late night snacks.



Good luck & have fun!

Bring a music device for the rooms and a small hammock for the balcony haha!
