Are you lucky enough to be booked on a Carnival cruise over Thanksgiving this year and wondering what your special Thanksgiving dinner menu in the main dining room (MDR) will be? Well, you’re in the right place! Here’s what guests onboard Carnival ships will be enjoying in the main dining room and the buffet for dinner on Thanksgiving.
This menu will be served on all Carnival ships in the buffet on Thanksgiving.
Homework (10 points): Share to the comments what you’d order from Carnival’s special 2025 Thanksgiving dinner menu.
I ALWAYS buy travel insurance to cover my cruises, but I NEVER purchase it through Carnival. It costs more and usually covers less than policies you purchase on your own. I go through sites like travelinsurance.com* to compare plans and prices and get the best deal for the coverage I want. It’s a simple process – just enter your total travel costs (hotel, cruise fare, etc) and answer a few basic questions about yourself and see a list of plans with prices and reviews. Spend less on insurance and spend more on excursions, special onboard cruise experiences and…future cruises!
