Carnival’s FunPass Check-In!

Carnival requires a pre board check-in for homeland security purposes. This will expedite our check-in when you get to the port. To do the Fun Pass check in, go to www.carnival.com/mycruise & enter your personal booking number & last name. It will take you step by step in entering all your legal information. If you have trouble, call & we will help walk you through the procedure or fax the information if we need to.

Communicating with home!

The Conquest/Ecstasy has an internet café for .50 to .75 per minute. If you make a phone call from the ship the charge is $6.99 per minute and if someone calls you from land it is $9.99 per minute. The best place to call from is on shore at an internet café. WARNING: Payphones on shore in Mexico do not use prepaid cards from the US. Buy a phone card there (Tel Mex) it should work great. Cell phones can receive calls but it is hard to call out on them.

We recommend that you bring sunscreen, bug repellant & snacks on excursions. Some provide lunch & some do not. They can be purchased online now that we have cabin assignments. These are just a few examples of the many adventures the ship has to offer. For all information on shore excursions, visit www.carnival.com. We are looking forward to a wonderful time!
