We’ll be boarding when you’re back in Port Canaveral on the 20th. It’s good to know the head waiter will still work with you on the menu. I also have a dairy allergy, but I thought they weren’t doing anything special anymore. I thought I had to order vegan but there’s a few vegan dinners that I’m not going to enjoy. Did you contact the head waiter when you boarded or did you let them know on the first night? Thanks!

So sorry. I’ve been recovering from my post cruise bug. Not Covid but a really bad cold. I had a migraine on Day 6 so it could have unknowingly been a pre-cursor to the bug. Today was the first day I have had any energy so just getting caught up with the land based stuff. I will be back soon to finish my now non-live review. 😁

It’s a little white box that I have seen at most bars. We’re on Harmony and they have them, but the dining room doesn’t have it out. By day 2 most of the other bars put it on the bar top to use once they make your drink. I didn’t see it at Boleros but in that case we just gave them our room # and they could see our drink package.

Love the WOW bands. I never wait for a server to bring a drink except the dining room and that’s if I don’t bring it with me. Much more convenient to tap for drinks and store purchases. After a day or two most bars put the tap box out so you don’t really need to take it off. We removed the old muster station on ours and then got them reprogrammed for the current sailing.

Day 2 Up for MDR breakfast which was nice but Solarium is closer so we likely do that tomorrow. DH is off to FlowRider. WOW bands. We were able to get our old WOW bands reprogrammed. We had sanded off the old muster station. They originally said they won’t reprogram them but since ours is mow not showing anymore, they just reprogrammed them. 😁👍Depending on the bar, you might need to remove it or you can just give them your room number. Tonight we will try to track down the Casino host as my husband’s card would not register on the machines. GS said his card was otherwise fine.🎰 Captain is booking it to Cozumel, not our first stop, due to a medical event We dock briefly tonight then off to Costa Maya tomorrow. He said it shouldn’t affect our schedule but 🙏🏻 prayers that this passenger gets the help they need. Dinner was in the MDR. Beef tenderloin for DH and Beef Bourgonion for me. Both were excellent. Boleros is my new favourite bar. Great cocktails and the band was excellent. The Schooner Bar piano player doesn’t sing that great 🙁. The guitar singer in the pub was good but it was crowded by the time we got there. Costa Maya tomorrow but we are staying on the ship. One day we will get off jut not tomorrow.

Day 1 Very long car lineup to get into the port. We took an Uber so they were able to get in the taxi line but I don’t think there was much advantage over car’s dropping off other passengers. We had a 10:30 embarkation and each time slot had a separate line. Ours was short as we were arrived at the port at 10:40. The line for 11:00 was huge. Long line for security but we finally got on the ship. Rooms were ready around 1:30pm. DH went straight to the FlowRider while I sorted out Voom connection issues. Dinner in the MDR. I have dietary restrictions (no milk products) and they kindly swapped out my mashed potatoes that came with the prime rib for a baked potato. I had the vegan peanut butter bar for dessert. It was like a very peanutty rice crispy treat!My meal was great. DH had the fried chicken and key lime pie. He enjoyed it. I was a bit tired from the day’s events and my not limiting my walking took a toll on my hip so we packed it in early.

The pre-flight: Fortunately no pre-flight as our scheduled flight is on time to MIA. We dodged a big weather event in Florida. My heart goes out to those who are dealing with the damage to their homes and cars. And also a big 👏 to our fellow cruisers who persevered, rebooked their flights, rented cars and will drive for hours before arriving at the port the day before and unavoidably for many, the day of the cruise. I wish you all safe travels. The pre-US customs: Flying out of YYZ (Toronto) so we went through US customs in Toronto before we board our flight. 👍 MPC is down so no express customs line. Huge lineup for security and customs so get there early. The pre-drink package plans: No lounge alcohol until 11am (after our flight leaves) but we’ll have one or two on the flight and then one with dinner. I need to prep for the DX beverage package. 🍹😁 The pre-boarding health check: We have done the health check on the app. Go to Edit Check in and then for each person scroll down to the health check, answer the questions and select submit.
