OK, I'll answer a few. #2, Triumph is larger and a few years older. The two ships have very different deck plans; prefer the Pride, much easier to navigate; plenty of bars and clubs on both. #3, Go to carnival.com and use their booking engine. Pretend to book both cruises (one at a time), pick a cabin category and pricing info will be shown. #4, Depends on what you're used to. Beer is about $4 per including tip; bar drinks range from $6 - 10 each. Coffee, tea, fruit juice (at breakfast), milk and punch are free, soda is about $2 each. #5, With few exceptions, cabins have two single beds that can be made into a queen. Category 1A (the cheapest) have bunk beds. There are some exceptions, but they are rare. Cheapest cabins with convertible beds are cat 4A. #6, This kind of arrangement must be made with a travel agent or Carnival PVP (personal vacation planner). Largely dependent on the availability of that many adjoining cabins. #7, Carnival policy is that you can each bring on a "reasonable" amount of soda or bottled water. Alcohol is limited to one bottle of wine per person. Smuggling additional liquor can be accomplished if you are creative.

[QUOTE="Cruzman, post: 1288374"] OK, I'll answer a few. #2, Triumph is larger and a few years older. The two ships have very different deck plans; prefer the Pride, much easier to navigate; plenty of bars and clubs on both. #3, Go to carnival.com and use their booking engine.
