The CD did not give Captain Kate the question re noise. Surprise.

What ship? Things are a bit different on Solstice Class ships versus Edge Class ships.

I experienced this banging noise on Beyond in an IV cabin, 7161, in November 2022. I reported it on these boards. We sailed Apex, IV cabin 7231, in November of 2023 and experienced no noise issues. We’ve also sailed Edge several times in IV cabins with no noise issues. This leads me to believe the Edge and Apex don’t suffer (at least to the extent) from the noise issues that Beyond does. That worries me about subsequent builds. We are sailing soon on Beyond in a Sunset Veranda and I haven’t heard reports of these aft cabins being affected. I’ll report if our cabin does.

We filed for an extension. DH’s family company never has their forms ready in time to file in April…

Diana is helping George with the taxes… For movies I’d add My Fair Lady.

Has anyone had personal experience of a cruise line contacting a noted emergency contact? I wonder if it’s just a legal requirement to have such information. On Celebrity during online checkin there is a place to list an emergency contact but the form only allows you to list a first name…no spaces. LOL. I suppose you could run their name together: JohnGreen.

@dani negreanu Oh, Dani, I’m so extremely sorry you and your family are going through this! You have been in my prayers.

And I’d forgotten about The Dancing Itos!

Yes, your Beverage Package works at Craft Social. It has been excluded from the bars that can be used for the Elite Happy Hour(s) drink menu.

Please don’t tell me she believed he was framed by the police…

Oh boy. OJ Simpson. We were doing some indoor painting during the trial and watched Court TV all day. It was absolutely astounding to me to see what the MSM’s reporting in the evening was of the recap. Not at all what had really occurred! Felt especially sorry for Ron Goldman’s family. Glad OJ was found guilty in the civil case. Vincent Bugliosi wrote a fantastic book about the trial: Outrage: The Five Reasons OJ Simpson Got Away With Murder. Also felt terrible for OJ and Nicole’s children.

Minnie agrees with you!

I’ll be interested in hearing about the shorter cruises too. We have a four night Reflection cruise later this year. In January we did a five night on Equinox and we enjoyed the younger, more energetic vibe. Especially liked not seeing the sea of scooters parked at the MDR entrance!

They sell out quickly.

In amongst the regular ice cream in the case just opposite the hand washing station port side of the Buffet.
