Ron is wasting his time. I only buy from LiMu Emu and Doug, 

I evaded Covid for two full years then promptly hit the jackpot twice from cruising. Mild symptoms both times. First time I sat next to a woman in the theater who was clearly sick with all the Covid symptoms. I was vaccinated, had my N95 mask on and thought I was safe. Big mistake. Should have gotten up and left. Second time I likely caught it from an unsanitized karaoke mike after countless people sprayed droplets all over it singing. DW didn't go karaoke and was totally fine. Needless to say, I no longer go karaoke on cruises any more.

They were wanting to do a big ship so it will be a little more expensive. I asked them about ships like mariner and they did not want it, just new ship.

 

 

You should reconsider. This is a wonderful opportunity to educate your kids that one should always live within his/her means. So if this means an older ship at a more affordable price, so be it.  They will thank you later in life for this valuable lesson.

The beauty of discounted gift card is that it has no expiry date and is transferrable.

So basically the same as Haiti has been for the last 20 years.

Haiti is a failed state and basket case. President was assassinated. National police is on the run from armed gangs. Law and order don't exist. Central government exists mostly in name only. Many basic services are barely functioning if at all. These are all facts. And yet you and a few others keep insisting the country is safe to visit. Why? Because Labadee is untouchable?

Fear Mongering

Never has been a problem at Labadee.

Perfectly safe to return.

Is it? Did you miss a thread posted by RCCL staff who was recently there? Poster stated gangsters were positioning themselves on the high ground and issuing verbal threats to Labadee compound below. As is, the Kenya cop deal is fasting running out of money and may not be able to continue much longer without further funding from donor countries.

Dang, sold out already.

Sorry this happened to you OP. Pick pocketing is something I always worry about when I travel to Europe.  On a RCCL cruise years ago, they had a former professional pick pocketing thief turned security consultant to host a show one night. He invited a male guest on stage and used all kind of distraction techniques to clean the guy out of his wallet, wrist watch and even pant suspenders in front of the audience. The guest had no clue what he lost until he was shown what was taken from him. It was entertaining but also demonstrated how easy it can be done by a professional pick pocketing thief.

Relive the 80's spirit and experience. Everyone should carry a boom box on his/her shoulder for the 80's theme night party on Lido.

No, but by calling it a "boombox" you're definitely showing your age!😅

In my hood, it was called Ghetto Blaster.

Granville street and Chinatown are a zoo full of homeless and pass out junkies on the sidewalks. Stay away.

Is there any other source for discounted cards?  I know NewEgg and a few other places have Carnival cards sometimes but I’ve never seen Princess cards anywhere else. 

You just missed it. Newegg had a Princess gift card sale 2 days ago. 8% off + another 2% if you paid with Amex.

They are not going to tell you anything that can be used against them. Standard practice.

Could it be missing or unreturned pool towel?

And beware of pickpockets.

Please advise on the cabin # so others can be warned.

People are complaining because there is no disco? Disco is dead since the 80's. Time to move on and try a new hobby.

If you like history, Panama cruise is a must.

You just missed it. They had a 10% E card discount sale two weeks ago.

The new law is catered to people who are incapable or unwilling to do simple math and need to be spoon fed. 

Labadee is a sitting duck. I hope RCCL has a sound evacuation plan in place for the site  occupants before these armed gangs decide to put the place under siege.

Didn't a few posters kept emphasizing the point that Labadee is perfectly safe and immune from all the chaos because it is too far away and difficult to reach due to bad road? Apparently no more. Gangsters are now positioning on the high ground with a perfect view of the compound and its flimsy perimeter fence.

I would imagine the song list is put together by the activity director or team on each ship based on their personal preferences. 

It is a very small town with one main street and nothing much to see. I also doubt the free shuttle will be running at these late evening hours. I will stay on the ship.

Does this sound like progress to anyone?
