Has anyone recently been on the Carnival Elation?

I'm going on the 9th and wanted to know if the Elation has received its Lido deck upgrades yet? I am taking two anxious teenagers and can't seem to find out if they have the waterpark or slides. Thanks.

I was wondering if there was a waterslide and miniature golf really. These kids love both and my fingers are crossed. Thanks.






Answer :
I was Elation in early April 2008. I'm not sure if it's been upgraded, as there is 1 slide for the pool on the Lido deck, but I wouldn't call it a waterpark.







Answer :
Wow! I am going on the Carnival Elation on the ninth of June too, for the cruise to Mexico. Well I hope you and I both have lots of fun!






Answer :
Check out cruisecritic.com There is a ton of information on that sight!! It is very addicting!! Happy cruising!!!

Has anyone been on the Carnival Elation cruise in December?

I have planned a cruise for New Years on the Carnival Elation, leaving out of San Diego. I was wondering if anyone has been on this cruise, or any other ship in the Pacific in December. I'm a little concerned about the waves being rough, and sea sickness.






Answer :

cruise in jan all the time and only once were the seas rough enough to feel them . the Elation is a pretty smooth ship and that is a nice cruise have fun






Answer :
I've never been on the Elation, but I went on the Carnival Ecstasy last December. I think it's the perfect time to go on a cruise. The cruise ships are so huge they can easily conquer over any waves, bring Dramamine if you are prone to sea sickness and you will be fine. Have fun!!






Answer :
take dramamine if you are prone to get seasick. the cruises on the west coast are pretty nice, the ships have stabilizers so you can barely feel the ocean being rough.

Is it safe to go on a cruise to Mexico on Carnival Elation?

I want to go this summer but I'm scared of the flu outbreak/drug war. I've been on the Carnival Paradise to Ensenada a couple years ago and the experience was pleasant. I really enjoyed the customer service. I was wondering how is the service at Carnival Elation and what is the alcohol policy?






Answer :
As far as flu goes, you would take the same precautions you always do in winter to protect yourself from the flu. Wash your hands. Use the hand sanitizer stations when you get back on board. Wash your hands before you eat. The normal rules that you follow if you work in a large place of business. There are roughly 3,000 people on the ship with you which is a limited area.

The alcohol policy is the same on all Carnival ships. You must be 21 to drink.

What day is the captions dinner night for carnival elation?

Captains night is a special night when you dress fancy and celebrate. It is usually celebrated with a lobster dinner.
On past cruises, it was on the second night, but for the Carnival Elation, we don't know what night they will be celebrating it since this cruise is only a 5 night cruise, not a 7 night.






Answer :
The Captains/Formal night will still be on the second night of your cruise. It will be listed in your daily cruise compass.

Hope this helps & have fun! (:
