I'm still thinking about going.  But I'm a little hesitant to let the travel agency pick a roomie for me.  So I've got my stuff filled out but waiting on the desk.

Have they done the cruise before?
Has anyone here gone?
How many poz people are on the ship? (from the website there will obviously be a lot of other people on the ship).
Quite interested in going, but would like to know more about it!
Please PM me if you've been or have any more info!!!
Thanks!

I was told by the travel agent that they usually have between 150 and 250 participants.

Just got an email indicating there are 145 people going so far of which 95 are gay and 40 straight so it'll be a great time.

Also, Carnival is wanting the block of unsold rooms back since it is looking to be a full cruise so along with us, there'll be about 2800 others on the ship as well !!

Hope those of you on the fence will go !!

hey, i recently went on a v similar itinerary carnival cruise (difference is instead of roatan i went to cozumel). i recommend that you do the stingray safari or stingray sandbar in grand cayman it is FABULOUS

also the cavetubing in belize is meant to be really good. i didnt go because i was afraid of catching a chill but  i really wish i had gone as everyone came back saying it was amazing.

have a great time all of you who go

and try to find out when and where next years is going to be cos i want to start saving up!

Hello Everyone,

Any more updates on the cruise?  I read the info at www.poitivecruise.com.  I have never been on a cruise before.  Is it all-inclusive as far as meals and entertainment?  What about pricing for the onshore trips at each port?  Any updates as to how many people have signed up now?  How hard is it to get a roommate this late in the game?

Thanks!

Cindy
