Additionally, when available through our service provider, closed captions are offered for certain in- stateroom TV programs and movies. Should you require closed captioning for our outdoor movies, please contact our Guest Services team once on board. Carnival makes available to all guests who require them a visual-tactile, cabin alert system that notifies room occupants of a door knock, a telephone call, the alarm clock, or a smoke-detection event.
Bread Is Always Available
Even though its a short one, I'm glad to know Carnival has made it a priority to be knowledgeable about Celiac and how one of the enjoyments of the cruise is the food. I am excited and looking forward to a wonderful experience. I am always interested to hear of others experiences when it comes to gluten free cruising, thanks. We just returned from a very successful week in Branson MO. But restaurants are easy to research, cruising is different.

Due to Carnival’s large fleet of ships and status as a popular commercial cruise line, they are one of the best-stocked cruise lines for gluten-free cruisers. All of Carnival’s cruise ships serve gluten-free breads, pastas, pizzas, and desserts. At the popular Guy’s Burger Joints, you can get bunless burgers and french fries as gluten-free options.
Gluten Free Cruising Options
We strongly suggest that guests contact their own health insurance todetermine their benefits for medical providers outside of the United States,as well as available air-ambulance and repatriation benefits. Travelers areadvised to purchase travel health insurance with defined out-of-countrytreatment and repatriation benefits, even if this coverage might beredundant. Guests should be aware that charges apply for treatment in the ship’smedical center, which must be paid before disembarkation. An itemized billwill be provided which can be submitted to the guest’s travel or healthinsurance. Typically, standard trip travel interruption insurance does notcover medical costs.
Holland offers several gluten-free options on all of its menus. With 24 hours notice, they stated that they could make just about anything, including gluten-free pasta, bagels, pancakes, waffles, and even Asian dishes using tamari. In the main dining room, Holland America tends to have more gluten free options each night as part of their regular menu than other cruise lines. Most ships offer hamburger & hotdog buns and gluten-free pizza at the New York Pizza bar.

Our friend was even able to get a gluten free Warm Chocolate Melting Cake. It never hurts to ask or make a requestDon’t be shy about asking for what you want or asking questions if a food is gluten free. Often — even at “grab and go” eateries on the ship, they will be able to offer an option or point you toward foods that meet your diet.
Gluten-free pizza , in my experience, and IMO, always sucks, unless it's cooked in an industrial oven such as Domino's. So that's a tough one, and Carnival is in the same boat as the rest of us there (oops).
Also, like I mentioned, my gluten free pancakes were inedible. But outside of this one experience, I would say all of the crew we had contact with were friendly and accommodating. Although we do not have dietitians on board, we can offer assistance with simple requests such as the method of preparation of menu items. Diet requirements need to be arranged with the head waiter on the first night of the cruise. If dining in the Lido Restaurant, the guest should discuss requirements with senior dining staff. As anyone who is gluten-free knows, beer is loaded with the stuff and finding a gluten-free beer isn't always that easy.
I asked for GF pizza at the Pizza Spot on the Lido and was told they did not make GF pizza. Guy's burger made me a GF burger but it took so long the rest of my party had finished and waited with me for my order. I expect to have to search for food I feel safe eating but when it is advertised, I expect it to be available. An even better idea is to call your cruise line a couple of weeks before your cruise and let them know you require a gluten-free diet.

They’ll let you know what they can make gluten-free and will cook yours separately to avoid cross-contamination. Cruise Hive was established back in 2008 and among the earliest blogs in the industry. Since the start, it's been our aim to provide the latest cruise news covering all the major cruise lines.
Choose your favorite type of pasta and then choose from a selection of sauces and meats and have it cooked up straight away, your pasta dish exactly the way you like it. At Mongolian Wok you choose your selection of noodles and vegetables and watch it be cooked with the chefs adding sauces and meats of your choosing. Another Carnival offering with Guy Fieri is available in the open air for lunch. Serving BBQ offerings of Pork, Beef, Chicken, and sausages with Guy’s signature BBQ sauces. You’ll find Swirls on the Lido Deck, where you can get complimentary ice cream and frozen yogurts until midnight. One of the online reviews mentioned gluten-free snacks at an onboard bar, but we never came across those.
The world has come a long way, I think, in gluten-free offerings, so I was very surprised by the low quality of Carnival’s food. The “Featured Gluten Free” menu is filled with just as many delicious options as found on regular dining room menus, but designed to meet guests’ special dietary needs or preferences. Gluten-free pizza dough, pasta, bread for deli sandwiches, and hamburgers buns, as well as cake are available upon request. All items are freshly prepared and may take a little longer than regular menu items.
While the major cruise lines have started to offer more standard gluten-free food on their cruise ships, many prefer you to provide notice of your dietary requirements right after booking your trip. Providing advanced notice to the cruise line means they will be sure to stock up on more gluten-free ingredients and provisions for your cruise. Most cruises already serve gluten-free breads, pizzas, and pastas but may not include gluten-free desserts and beer. We suggest meeting with the maître d’ each day and pre-ordering food for the next day.
Emotional support dogs, which are not recognized by the US Department of Justice, are also not permitted on Carnival ships. Carnival is happy to welcome working service dogs on board. Due to safety considerations, devices can only be stored inside their stateroom. Guests bringing a Segway must store it in their stateroom for use at ports of call only. Due to safety considerations, devices cannot be stored in corridors or public areas. In order to purchase a standard stateroom, devices must be able to fit in its 22" (55.9 cm) wide entry doorway, and when stored, must allow for safe exit from the stateroom.
The next day, I took a sushi class, and again, I was set up with my own station. My krab and tempura shrimp were replaced by ahi tuna (yum!) They went to great lengths to ensure there was no cross-contamination, including cutting my rolls in the kitchen with a separate knife. I am no expert, but I think my sushi rolls pictured below didn’t come out half bad! Please note that eel sauce has gluten, so only tamari, ginger, or spicy mayo must be used on your rolls.
Pizza Pirate offers pizza throughout the day and evening, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I don't know about the specialty restaurants, but was at the pizza place and someone ordered a gluten free pizza. Any time my mom got a sandwich, it was on one of the same pre-packaged rolls she got with dinner. She would have liked some sliced bread, either to eat as toast with eggs in the morning or as a sandwich base at lunch, but for whatever reason, the ship did not stock it. We were glad to see the restaurant staff taking the allergy situation seriously. The downside was that anything that was obviously gluten-free, like plain chocolate ice cream, still could not be served to my mom.
