    If they add the $10 fuel surcharge to any of my cruises I have booked, I'll merely cut back $10 per day on my casino budget. I can't let the surcharge affect my bar bill.

    We love you Kalyn Padget and Rosie Unsworth (our lovely adopted daughters), Amy Barton, Melanie Therrien, TJ, and Rick! The Fun Crew puts the fun in Carnival Cruising! Thank you Butch for being a fantastic CD!

    I've only been off the Holiday for a short time, and I'm already having fits of melancholy. I guess unless we can cruise every two months, I'll probably never be satisfied again.

    Our 7 YO and 6 YO grandsons decided that they would prefer a Thanksgiving Cruise to Key West and Cozumel on the Destiny to Thanksgiving in Orlando/Kissimmee this November. We must be teaching them well. Thanks for an excuse for my booking another cruise, guys!

    We went on two Norwegian Cruise Line Tramp Steamer Cruises - Thank goodness we were too busy on our honeymoon in 1978 to realize how crummy the cruise actually was - Then they ruined our 2007 Hawaii Cruise that was my retirement gift from my wife - Two chances is enough! - Never again!

    Our current future dream cruise is 15 days back-to-back on the Freedom / 8-day Eastern (Fort Lauderdale) and the Valor / 7-day Western (Port of Miami) with a 45 minute private shuttle ride in between the two Fun Ships.

    There you go, Cruiselion, with the negative Karma.  Pay Carnival the fuel charge and make them pay you back in the casino.  (Yeah, I know, your considering the casino visit a deposit is much more realistic, but I'm trying to keep a positive attitude.  What I'm really positive about is I'm going to lose a couple hundred bucks in the casino in addition to the fuel service charge.)

    Re: Anyone else worried about the fuel price lately?

    Ya Rusty, I must have had a weak moment…. The bar bill is sacred so can’t reduce that ( I love those Monkey heads), the casino is wishing hope on hope but it always by the end of the cruise ends up as a "deposit". So I will be realistic, no reduction will happen there so what is left….. Oh what the hay, it is a CRUISE not a resort were you sit on the same beach for 7 days, so guess I will just have to add in my share of the fuel bill,....so I’m still in, when do we leave………..
