Seems like Norwegian is spying on me. Just got an email saying my upgrade offer is under review. It's probably a standard automatic email that gets sent out to everyone with a bid, but it's still interesting.

This is an extra special cruise for me and literally couldn't come at a better time. I met with my Oncologist earlier this afternoon and he said with my numbers I can consider myself cancer free. Lots of stress and anxiety over the last 8 months, I'm glad that ride is over

Congratulations on the diagnosis! Enjoy the relaxation!

First... Congratulations on the wedding and honeymoon. As of a few days ago it looks like the cruise is sold out, so unless their are some last minute cancelations I don't think their will be many upgrades. Between last Wednesday and today my wife and I have received 4 emails to view the safety video. Our record was our last cruise at 7 email reminders 

 

Weather looks like it will be spectacular for spillway. 75F and Sunny in Boston on Friday. Bermuda is looking good typical 80F, Humid with a chance of a pop up shower

 

 

 

 

Thanks on the congrats!

Surprised to hear sold out. Really curious to see how that makes the cruise feel. Hopefully it still remains some of that smaller boat charm.

I've been keeping tabs on the weather too, so far looking good.

I can believe its only 3 more work days for me. I know this is going to be my second time one the Gem. The last was years ago, out of NY to The western Caribbean. I've been on a few newer Royal Caribbean ships since then so I'm certainly a little concerned that this ship is going to feel pretty dated. I also traditionally sail on non peak cruises for better rates and smaller crowds, but this one is a honeymoon so we are kinda biting the bullet and going on what I imagine is a peak week. 

Has anyone had any luck with bidding on room upgrades? We were pretty tight in our budget on this trip so we went with inside cabin and threw a couple bid offers out. No notifications one way or another on them to this point and its getting fairly close to cutoff. Debating on bumping the offers up a bit but also don't want to way over spend. At the end of the day, I don't mind inside cabins anyway because they are so easy to get to sleep in.

I gave my girlfriend and myself a Cruise! We will be going on a 9 nighter to the Caribbean. It will be my third and she's never even been on one before. Its pretty exciting.
