Sail Date: Nov 2004

Hi Everyone, I was a "single" cabin user,(#7205 handicapped room w/window and as front & center as you can get) late booker (Nov. 8th) passenger on the Conquest. I'm not handicapped, but, this late in the game, that's where they put me. I didn't know what cabin I was in until I got to the pier. I was prepared for a "bottom of the boat/inside room", but, really lucked out! The handicapped rooms are quite roomy. The bathroom was really spacious in order to accommodate wheelchairs. I didn't have any docs, obviously, booking 6 days before the sailing date, but it wasn't a problem.

I've sailed on Carnival 3 times before (Imagination-Halloween '96, Victory-inaugrual cruise '98? & Spirit 10/27/02 inaugural cruise) and have always had an awesome time. Went on Royal Caribbean, in between, but will stick with Carnival. I'm a late nighter, who loves the disco and Carnival's discos always rock into the wee hours. (Followed by the "3:00am Stagger Parade" to the pizza place.)

Sunday, Nov. 14-Cleve. to New Orleans. 2:17 p.m. -- Grabbed luggage, caught cab to pier (23 minute ride, $23.00). No hassle from baggage handlers begging for tips, like in Miami. No traffic, no waiting, went straight into terminal. Sat for 15 min., then had to stand in line for 25 minutes while Carnival begins the endless amount of "photo opportunities." If only we could have by-passed the Carnival Photographers, it would have been a quick walk-on.
