  1. Always respond to the concierge email even if it's just to say hi and thanks for the email.
  2. Nah, car rental (from the airport, nothing downtown had availability) was $375 plus gas. Taking the bus for $215. It'll take longer, but it's simpler since it picks up at the cruise port.
  3. It's a long bus ride. But the peace of mind of not getting stuck in Canada for a week is worth it
  4. I changed my flight to depart out of Seattle instead of Vancouver to avoid the testing hassle
  5. I sincerely apologize for seeing the subject and reading it as "I gained 24 pounds on a 6 night cruise"
  6. People too often get addicted to the drink packages. You don't need a drink package to drink.
  7. Nice, but with all the other complimentary stuff on the island, it's not worth paying extra for
  8. It means "if you want to go formal, this is the night, but since more and more people don't like to dress up anymore, wear whatever you want"
  9. "How much does it cost" really can't be answered that far in advance as who knows how that'll all shake out by then. But there are Walgreens pharmacies and likely others where you could schedule your test in advance and get results within a couple hours.
  10. You could add her own credit card to her profile when you check in for the cruise.
  11. There are usually knock off lego models of the ships in the gift shot
  12. In the US markets they've been running KSF nearly constantly since March
  13. You can put your phone on the laptop screen then you can adjust the angle of the screen to get the phone's camera in the right view
  14. Just log on when it's time to take the test and the proctor will explain everything.
  15. So it's $40 without the hassle instead of $40 with the hassle.
  16. We got it for $79 once. It wasn't worth the price. Not that we had a bad experience as it was quite nice. But, just not worth the price.
  17. That debate always ends up getting covered in...well you know
  18. If you want to feel Sharmin Clean then cruising isn't for you
  19. You may well be testing negative in 3-4 more days
  20. My last cruise we forgot to flip the "do no disturb" magnet one evening. I thought for sure the covid police would be knocking on our door.
  21. Loose tea isn't going to show up on any scan. You'll be fine.
  22. That's from the original strain and that was based on a vague Chinese study. Since Omicron you can be exposed, test positive and then test negative within a week.
