VIP Checkin - Carnival Miracle - Port of Tampa

[mandy030702]

Hi there - I've heard rumors of people getting to their ports only to find out Carnival staff didn't know where the VIP check-in is. Has anyone had this problem and/or can anyone tell me if they know where VIP check-in is at the Port of Tampa? Is it clearly identifiable or is it someplace hard to find if you don't know where it is? Thanks

I haven't sailed out of Tampa yet but the VIP Check-in Lounges in Miami and Port Canaveral are very clearly identified and all Carnival personnel know where they are and can direct you to them. Maybe some people were asking the luggage handlers for directions, you need to ask a Carnival employee if you can't find it yourself. I've never had a problem.

Thanks - I appreciate the info - heard some stories about people not finding it and employees not knowing about it so I figure it couldn't hurt asking here where the "pros" at cruising are! Thanks
