Hello, I sure hope this cruise is not canceled. I am doing a b2b2b and this cruise is right in the middle.  On the cruise leaving 1-9 Key West has been changed.  Can't wait to get on board. 

Thank you everyone.  I'm using Special needs at sea, and the scooter will be in the cabin.  I will let the hotel van folks know before we get to the port, it seems like once the hotel van guy called to be met with a wheelchair.  Thanks again. 

Hi there, I'm sailing with a friend who will need wheelchair assist. We are being dropped off by a hotel van. What happens after we leave the van at the port? A mobility scooter has been rented and should be in our cabin.  We have been given a boarding time, but can not control the arrival time of the van. Thank you so much.  I'm so excited to get back on a ship.  Rotterdam b2b2b.

As a menu collector, the first menu to be harvested is from the MDR on Embarkation Day even though it has changed little over the years.  After the cruising shutdown, many things have changed and perhaps the Welcome Aboard Lunch menu may as well.

I do not always attend the Welcome Aboard Lunch because of the very slow service but do pick up a menu.  On the Pinnacle-class ships, the Dutch Cafe pea soup and a huge chocolate chip cookie are a much faster start to a cruise. 

 

Is there a cost for the pea soup and huge cookie? Thanks.

Don’t know how close your cruise is but your boarding time will probably change 10 x before the cruise 😛.

Jan 9 th b2b2b on the Rotterdam. However I am wheelchair assist.  So I'm not real concerned. Thanks so much.

I like to print it all  just in case.  My boarding pass showed up in my wallet on the navigator app.

Thank YOU.   Found it!  Check in 2 PM group G.  Looks like I should of done this sooner. 

Hello, my boarding pass info is ready to print.  It looks like I should only print page 1 of 13.  Is that correct?  Also Is my boarding pass available using the app?  I'm not able to locate this on the app.  Thank you for helping me.

You can take Tri-Rail or Brightline trains from Fort Lauderdale to WPB.

You'll need a taxi from the port to the train station, and a taxi from the end point to PBI.

If you need to go further north, to Jupiter, you'll have to call a ride-share service.

The trains do not go as far as Jupiter.

 

Thank you.  I will look into this. 

It would just be 1 person, 1 luggage, and I will not be driving, walking or hitchhiking.  I willl check out Lyft. Thank you.

Hello, I need some suggestions on how to get from Port Everglades, post cruise to PBI or Jupiter Fl?  Thank you so much.

Only water in a can will be allowed onboard - except for wine ($20 corkage fee)

 

Consider bringing some powder to mix with water onboard.   Not sure what the rules would be for a soda stream - but probably not allowed.

Thank you.

Good Morning Everyone.   Hope all is well.

I sail in about 60 days, when should I be able to print my boarding pass?

I also usually pack a few plastic bottles of soda in my luggage, however I have read the new rules.  It looks like NO cans or bottles of soda will be allowed.  Is it correct that I can bring a 12 pack of canned water?   I'm flying into FLL so this might be almost impossible.  I am doing a b2b2b and would really like to have a 'few' of my own beverages. Non drinker here, but always have water/tea with me.  Can you suggest something, legal of course.  Thanks so much.  I'm so excited to sail the Rotterdam, and get back on the sea again.  Deb

Q -  what is a "squatchee" 

A - it is the button at the top of a baseball cap

Who knew?

More questions later, but  off to Trivia now. (usually at 2, but at 1 today)

Followed by "Ask the Captain" at 2:00

 

I would love to know more trivia questions! I always learn a lot. Thanks.

Very revealing ... 1359 COVID19 cases on cruise ships in restart in US ... now we know why so many ships were/are YELLOW.

Please share how I can check to see what color the cruise ships are. Thanks.

Thank you so much for sharing pictures.  Also thanks everyone for answering my question.  IF you can grab some pool pictures I would love that. 

Enjoy.

Thanks so much for the update and pictures.  I have never been to the Dutch Cafe. Please are there items at no cost?  Is this location where the afternoon tea is held? Thanks

Thank you so much.  

I'm thinking about booking the 'spa' relaxation package.  Can you please tell me the cost for 2 people, for a week?  It looks like its 219.00 per couple, but it says starting from.  Also Is it best to order in advance or wait until I get onboard.  What about day passes?  Thanks so much.

Thank you so much.  I'm so excited to sail in Jan b2b2b

Thank you all so much. 🥰

Good Morning, I am sailing the Rotterdam in January b2b2b. So excited as I just had several Carnival cruises canceled in December.

I booked my return flight at 12:06.  This flight is now departing at 11:30.  

I am disembarking with a wheelchair.  What are my best options to get from the cruise port to the airport?  Thank you so much.

Ahoy Maties! Thank you for all the info. I very much enjoy this post.🥰

Good Morning, Thank you for the 'daily's and all info provided. I watched the video of the Rotterdam and was excited.

Remembering all of those who died on 9/11 and their families, as well as those who died in the 20 years of aftermath.  God bless you all.

It was $600 per cabin so if you were sailing solo, you got it all. 

 

Now that you are sharing, you get $300 each. 

 

I have OBC for a future cruise and decided to stick with solo because I don't want to share..LOL

 

 

Thanks, enjoy your solo!  LOL
