Are the bistro cafe and lido buffet free on carnival paradise?

and what is served there?
also. in interior rooms are there 3 beds?
like 2 twin beds AND 1 pullman bed






Answer :
Just to add to the info the first person gave you. You have to ask for a triple room, not all inside room have the upper bed. They usually go fast, and the cruise line likes to hold on to them for parties of 3. The other cabins have couches that make into beds, and Carnival uses roll-away beds when there is space available. You can get an outside cabin that might have more room for 3 people.
The menu in the Lido changes from meal to meal. I've never seen anyone that can't find something to put on their plate. I'll check on the bistro cafe and get back to you.






Answer :
I haven't traveled on that ship specifically, but as a general rule: Lido buffet is free on every ship I've been on. I'm guessing that the Bistro Cafe probably isn't. Most ships have some "specialty" places that aren't free and that sounds like one of them. Specialty coffee, specialty pastry etc. In general the amount of food that you will have access too that is included with your cruise ticket is insane. There are 3 meals served daily, midnight buffets, 24 hour room service etc. You won't go hungry.

I've never been in an interior room on Carnival, but most rooms have 2 twin beds. The rooms I've stayed in have had a pullout, but I can't tell you for sure that yours will - you'll want to check with the cruise line to be sure. The interior rooms are very small and 3 people might make it a little cramped. When we get a 3rd person, we upgrade our room - because the 3rd person doesn't pay full price, it makes it possible and cheaper.






Answer :
most rooms sleep 4 so i would imagine they have all different types of sleeping arrangements in them. also, the other rooms are NOT bigger. An agent told me all rooms with the exception of suites are the same size.
if you have questions i would advise to contact an agent of the cruiseline not members of yahoo answers no matter how many cruises someone has been on. the cruise agent will know the best answer to give you.

How hard is it to sneak alcohol on the carnival paradise cruise?

any tips on how to sneak it in?

thanks!!!!






Answer :
Me and my husband brought on two bottles of alcohol and didn't hear a thing. Here is the policy on Carnival's site----
Guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages onboard. However, guests (21 years and older only) may bring one bottle (750 milliliter) of wine or champagne per person on board only during embarkation at the beginning of the cruise. A $10 corkage fee per bottle will be charged should you wish to consume this wine in the dining room or a $14 corkage fee per bottle in the Supper Club. Guests may bring a small quantity of non-alcoholic beverages.

All alcohol, additional quantities of wine/champagne or excessive quantities of non-alcoholic beverages will be confiscated and discarded without compensation. Guests may purchase a variety of beverages on board the ship. Alcoholic beverages will not be sold or served to anyone under the age of 21. We reserve the right to refuse the sale of alcoholic beverages to anyone. Alcoholic beverages purchased in the ship’s gift shops or in ports of call will be retained by Carnival until the end of the voyage.

I heard some couples talking about sneaking a lot of alcohol on. It is possible to sneak more on than what is allowed. Just pack it very tight with your clothes. You can fill water bottles with alcohol because you are allowed water. When we got off at Cozumel, my husband bought clear Tequila and poured it in our water bottles and we were able to sneak it back on the ship cause they just thought it was our water.
I didn't feel our security was extremely strick but I know different days and different ships can change. Good luck and have a blast on your cruise!!~~~~






Answer :
Well my parents are about to go on that cruise and they say it would be extremely hard to do with all the security around the place. It is comparable to an airport they say. I would see how much they allow you to bring onto the plane. Otherwise try to go with clear alchohol such as vodka and so on. Put it into drinking bottles and sneak it in that way.






Answer :
With Carnival u r allowed to bring a bottle of champagne per person if u r 21 and over and there is no charge for that. If u try to sneek anything else then u will just lose that.






Answer :
How bad do you want to go....try to smuggle drugs or alcohol on board and your @ss will be left on the dock...and you would deserve it........






Answer :
It is a little difficult and you will need a lot of luck. I recommend that you put it in a platic bottle and wrap it around a pair of jeans. Remember , a lot of luck to sneak it in.
