Looks like viking priced at 24.00 and up a bit since it opened. Maybe I'm the only one who loves stocks and follows closely idk .. but I was curious.

Yes so priced with solo supplement at current rate.

In order to collect from insurance the person I believe has to cancel which triggers a refare for the other pax. I dont believe they can collect if they just dont show up, but I could be wrong.

Have you tried to erase your number and type it back in. There was a known glitch where points stopped showing. Worked for me.

I had a lazy steward last time on harmony. She never learned anyones names, called every pax, "sunshine". If you wanted something go with a crisp bill in hand. I asked if I could set out on my balcony while she cleaned, she said no, so I left, she never cleaned my cabin, several days. I'm solo and not messy, wasnt a big deal but she made it clear she was after tips. Congrats on breaking even or better so far, though I'm a little lost on your gambling math but seems like you are at least breaking even. Awesome.

Agree "very soon" doesnt mean much to me either after years of speculation.

Starting with the new mardi gras carnival has also removed self serve laundry. So last 3 carnival ships also no laundry. A good portion of us on carnival like on royal have free laundry as a perk. They have it but not free except as a perk, same as royal.

There is a free trolley at coco cay. I saw you took chill island instead of south beach because of distance. Next time I'm taking the trolley and not walking. Agree south beach a long walk in the heat.

For instance harmony has grease as its broadway show. In addition it has columbus the musical. It's a musical show but not a broadway show. In addition there may be a headliner show with a singer or a group. Not a musical but a singing group no acting.

My cousins in Lubbock and I also dont share the same politics. They say they are fringe, not even moderate in their views. We agreed to not discuss politics before I went and still talk but carefully. I didnt ask what they mean by it and they dont tell me. If I can you will too. Just have to agree not to discuss. We tip toe at times like when we talk stocks.

I'm going may 2025 and staying over in rome. Im hearing mixed things like even if the hotel says it has ac it doesnt in may. By law the hotel cant turn on ac until june. 23 days plus 4 or 6 days in rome. Idk. I am worried about pick pockets and hearing stories. I dont speak other languages. Bus system. I've never been let alone by myself. I know I can get a hotel close to most things but I'm still worried my first time. Reading just worries me more. The reason for 4 or 6 days is from what I see flights cost more on friday, 4 days. I can stay 6 days and fly home on a sunday about the same price. My buyers called today out of the blue needing more time. I agreed to only 10 days. Not happy, kinda mad. I called before I made a deposit to move and she lied and said her rate locked and ready. Liar. Calling moving company to see if I can push it back a week. Waiting for call back. Ready for this to be over. She is from Vietnam and she and her co signer both dont seem to understand dates matter. Hes trying to BS me about how it's not unusual a few days late or a automatic extension 30 days. I said no such thing, contacts dont have 30 days extension built in. Hes making stuff up. He acts like hes a expert and doesnt know I know better. I'm really pissed off this morning after all his BS. I've paid to move, no one here and the house will be empty, lawn needs mowing etc.

I agree that the price seems a bit overvalued vs what it used to sell for. More shares, so earnings diluted and no dividend and more debt .. and selling as high as pre covid seems a bit much to me too. I dont see prices continuing up as before either. So next years comps wouldnt be as good as now when prices are compared to covid pricing a year ago. A year ago there were still a lot of left over really low prices which are gone now so year over year looks terrific but many many companies are saying price increases are running into resistance. Stagnation is being mentioned. Right now looks terrific, a year from now doesnt look so good.

The IPO is pricing tonight. Usually prices below what they expect opening trades to be. The lower amount is for people who are buying the IPO before it opens publically. Not what it will actually open at trading tomorrow. Should be above the IPO price. Typically. For instance at etrade I can buy some IPOs not all. Not every brokerage handles all IPOs. It will be interesting to see where trading actually opens. They are saying viking collects money 2 years in advance vs industry average of 6 months though they dont typically sail at full capacity. Pros and cons. 7k vs ncl 3k average etc. Watched on CNBC so I didnt get it all. Odd they would use ncl to compare to. IPOs seem to open around noon or 1 pm my time to watch tomorrow.

Today from what I heard virgin has a IPO, expected in the $42 range. Newly come public. I was laying in bed at the time I heard it was coming today so not sure I got the initial pricing correct, but interesting.

Hi I'm doing voyager to barcelona may 2025. Interesting that it's in the 60s. I've done oasis 3 times so not so interested in the ship as the weather and all that kind of stuff. My first TA. I'm also doing a 2nd leg to rome next may. I don't own many cold weather clothes, so I'll have tee shirts too but can bring a warm hoodie. Sounds like its needed. How cold does it get at night? My TA moved me back from the very front of the ship as he says can be very windy. I have a balcony on the pool deck. Is it windy on the pool deck? How was the azores. I think I'm stopping there too. Any other ports?
