Carnival Glory Cruise Tips
When are the best deals on the Carnival Glory?
Though the Carnival Glory sails year round,
the lowest prices on most cruises are typically available in the winter months.
In any event,
to find the lowest price on any cruise, you have to actually conduct a search on a specific cruise departure and provide information that may help you get a lower price than what is listed on the web site. Cruise deals are often targeted at only certain states, cities, or affinity interest (Seniors, Military, Past Guests). So when you find a cruise you want to go on, you might actually be presented with a better deal when you start to make your booking based on those factors.
From where does the Carnival Glory sail?
The Carnival Glory sails from Miami, Norfolk, and New York. Cruises on the Carnival Glory include brief treks to the
Caribbean and
Canada.
Can I bring liquor on Carnival Glory?
Carnival Glory passengers are not allowed to bring alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic beverages that are purchased in ports-of-call or from shops on board the Glory will be stored and delivered to your stateroom on the last day of the sailing. When you board the Glory on the first day of the cruise, alcoholic beverages brought from home will be taken and will not be returned. Carnival security personnel may inspect containers (water bottles, soda bottles, mouthwash, luggage etc.) and will dispose of containers holding alcohol.
Is there Internet Access on-board Carnival Glory?
Guests can connect to the internet on each ship in the Carnival fleet, either by accessing a 24/7 wireless connection "hotspot", or utilizing the resources of the Explorations Café or Internet Café located on board. You will be able to receive electronic mail in real-time, via satellite link 24 hours a day, satellite conditions permitting. Carnival has even set up your very own CruisE-mail address for you to use. We also have an Internet Manager on board to assist you. There is a charge for these services.
Will my mobile phone work on Carnival Glory?
Through an agreement with Wireless Maritime Services (WMS), a leading provider of maritime cellular service at sea, Carnival lets you take advantage of your wireless devices while at sea. Using your own mobile phone and telephone number, you can make and receive calls to and from fellow travelers who are on the ship, as well as friends, family, or business associates back home. If you currently have the service through your home provider, you can also send and receive text messages. Other available wireless services include use of PDAs, such as your Blackberry®. All charges for calls, text, and data usage made while on the WMS network are billed at rates similar to international roaming by your home carrier on your regular monthly phone bill.
When is Embarkation on the Carnival Glory?
Embarkation times are printed on the Signature Preferred Boarding Pass page on Express Docs. Generally, however, early embarkation will commence at 11:30 AM. There may be certain exceptions due to local governmental procedures. Due to new port security requirements at Port Everglades in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, we are unable to provide our guests with access to the cruise terminal prior to 11:00 AM. Keep in mind that you must be on the ship at least 60 minutes (one hour) before departure, and the gangway will be pulled 30 minutes before sailing.
