Hi Everyone,

I saw this web page regarding selling advertising on the big screens
that Carnival has installed. I found it interesting and thought you
might as well.

How awful! One of the best parts about being on a cruise and relaxing
on the Lido deck is NO TV, NO COMMERCIALS. With the economy in a nose
dive everyone is in a scramble to try and save where they can or
generate new income. Where does this leave the customer? Well if this
new money maker keeps the cruise fares affordable I guess I can just use
ear plugs.

Dory, I agree that this is horrible. What really worries me is that it
will eventually spread to all the cruise lines.

I don't see the cruise lines hurting for business. But, that
certainly would change my outlook on booking with Carnival
again if we are subjected to that sort of nonsense on the
Victory this November!!

The only time I turn the TV set on my cabin is to check the charges on
the ship tab or to order room service (which doesn't work most of the
time). Oh yes, I did watch it when VPI and LBJ Space Center had the
shooters because in VPI's case I am a Virginian with several friend's
kids there and at the Space Center because my husband had recently
retired from there.

Another reason I won't be cruising Carnival again.
