  1. Hello! I have tried searching this group and the Internet in general and can’t find an answer. Does anyone know who the captain and Cruise Director will be on the February 24 sailing of Apex? Thank you so much in advance.
  2. Hi! I’m from NY and have been to SJU many times. All good on taxis. Just needed the pier info. Thank you!
  3. Yep - all set with our plans for that... just needed the pier info. Thank you!!
  4. Thanks. I know the pier (it was in my post), my question was about the terminal it self. @richyak answered my question. Thanks!
  5. Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. Appreciate your help!
  6. Though we are experienced cruisers, this is our first time sailing out of San Juan. What is the terminal like? Is there an indoor waiting area? Seating? AC? Thinking about check in tomorrow and the time we should choose. Generally we like to arrive at an earlier time but I also despise the crush of people that happens when everyone arrives earlier than their scheduled time. What is the mood there? Thanks!
  7. This looked fun! How long was it? Thanks and enjoy your day!
  8. Do you mind if I ask what deck you’re on? We are on next week. Deck 2 cabin in the 200s
  9. Following excitedly as we sail just after you. Thank you for sharing your vacation!
  10. This is like an Addams Family black and white cocktail !
  11. I could have written your last heartfelt post myself, complete with this meme follow up LOL Thanks for always sharing so honestly! That is what keeps people following. xoxo
  12. Thank you! So it's operated by the port? Or is there a separate name of the business that they contract with? I'm actually interested in it for a different reason in NOLA so trying to track down who actually performs the service. Thanks again!
  13. Thank you for a great review! It's refreshing to see someone be so positive and make the best of things - I really appreciate it! Do you mind sharing the luggage service you used? Thank you!
  14. We are A side, I’ll share the number when we’re off the ship. I hope it works out for you! Leaving Miami is always great, no matter the view.
  15. Oh and before I forget. The placement of some of the mega rockstar rooms is really loud — the pool DJ is going full force and our cabin walls are vibrating.
  16. Friends and friends I haven’t met yet: I can’t decide what to drink. I’m at the point where I make today an Off day or get back on the horse and keep going. What is your go to pick me up drink? They don’t have 43 back here or I’d get a carajillo.
  17. I believe it has to be new bookings. If I’m wrong, I’m sure someone will tell me.
  18. Hi from Richard’s Roodtop! Day one was great… maybe too great because I have not been able to shake a pounding hangover headache. If anyone has any miracle cures I am all ears. Embarkation was the smoothest I’ve had in 3 sailings. We showed up around 12:45 due to race traffic. We were shown to the Rockster area at the terminal and were onboard just before 2. My first two sailings had very disorganized embarkations so it was nice to see that part get easier. They are figuring it out. One thing they are not figuring out: this flipping app is so horrible. I’m a fairly patient person but needing to delete and reinstall the app 3 times to get it to work is a little much! Problems aside, we got to our Gorgeous suite and met our Roadie (Halid from Serbia). He helped us move some shows and dinners around so nothing conflicted and also swapped some alcohols in our in room bar. We’ve only called him for help once - we broke one of the water carafes in the room (oops) and he sent something me to get the broken glass. Tile floors + glass water carafe = me playing “the floor is lava” for the rest of the night. Lol. We got a little sprinkle of liquid sunshine during our sailaway, enough to send everyone running indoors. Dinner was Pink Agave. Mid dinner, there was a quiet crew announcement that they could remove their face masks. It was like Christmas morning- everyone was so excited. Our dinner waiter was from the Ukraine so we chatted with him about his family and their safety. He said that it’s hard to be away, but he actually feels fortunate that he has a job where he can support them. That one got me- it’s easy to forget that our crew is sometimes coming from a totally different life. I was recognized by one of the bartenders from our previous sailing- he called me a Born Again Virgin 😝😝 We played some trivia with RJ and went to the pajama party, moved indoors because of the rain. A little bit of the craps table and it was time for bed! In middle of the night, I reached for my water glass and took a healthy swig of the Zacapa Old Fashioned I took to the room with me. Surprise 3am happy hour!
