well I do like the itinerary better on RCI than what HAL did last year. They went through Panama Canal and then over South pacific but instead of Suez Canal, the ship went all around Africa and up and into northern Europe. It never did any of the Med but the ship left folks off for a few days to do safari and rejoin the ship on other side. I just like RCI even if it is much longer.

I had this setup for a CCL Horizon but not for Celebration because they used bigger terminal. I think the smaller terminals use airport-like setup. I saw tag numbers mixed up and bags in piles that made no sense. I prefer the luggage lined up on floor and they still do that in bigger terminals. the best upgrade to process is facial recognition.

As a virtual I thank you I am excited for photos from New Year’s Eve in port

Thanks for great reply

aw yes sitting near the walkways. On my last two cruises on different cruise lines I witness twice a man getting food dumped on them. The staff walks too fast and carries too much. I also do not like the trend of now 2 seaters by the window and them placing two tops in random stupid spots with traffic walking by. This is why I 98% of the time go to the buffets as the food is hotter and one can get the quantity of whatever item they want. Also is quieter too.

of all the AI phots this is the on I like the most. One can only dream

yes I agree with you. BTW love your cc name.

sorry to hear about the EDGE, Recently I went on the Summit out of Boston and she is a beautiful and nice ship. I was on her last in 2016 and was amazed at the upgrades, I love that ship so much I am doing her a 3rd time next year from Vancouver to Alaska. Have a safe trip home.

I most agree with you. I would be the one who would get the snapping and breaking of the ropes and then plop into the unknown. Enjoying your thread. You both are the cutest dudes with interesting clothes.

I would like to see a quantum class ship in LA or S Diego. I think the California folks deserve one.

I have heard that redoing the tanks on older ships is quite the feat and RCL has no interest in doing that much construction. that's what one of the captain's told us. only new ships get LNG.

fascinating information thanks for sharing.

and I think they should because it is 9 months.

yup agree. I feel that new folks coming onto the ship for small segment might find it hard to join in. I am Diamond Plus and don't drink so I would be considered boring. I was supposed to be on the Copenhagen to AMS but in the end, I moved to the Jewel doing 12 nights all Norway up to the Arctic. And my airfare will be r/t. that was my problem with the WC and all 1 ways. I will enjoy it just as much as Jewel is a Radiance class ship but not the WC.

yes I love the solarium the best on her. hope the weather got better. Looks like the first week of WC is really a Caribbean cruise with some nice southern islands

I also wonder if those doing shorter segments feel left just a bit if the full WC have bonded and have their already made teams for trivia etc. I agree eating in speciality all the time would add up. Afterall the shore excursion are the most important. Plus I think if on full WC, one would have to pace themselves and eat lots of veggies and fruits and exercise as well. I have to wonder and hope not that no one gets sick either.

oops I did mean to say 2nd but for some reason I typed 3rd. So I did guess correctly in my mind. The 2nd segment is what I would do if I could except for China. oh well.

wow that makes the 3rd leg the longest. La to Dubai. which is why I guess Brisbane. oh well

I was lucky to do Wonder out of Ft Lauderdale last spring. I think I was on #6 cruise before leaving for Europe. Did not get to see all the shows as they were not ready. I also Love Symphony too

when does the 2nd segment start? Is it Brisbane? I know 3rd starts in Dubai and 4th starts in Barcelona. Kinda cool that first and last day of entire WC includes Coco Cay.

aw but we up in NY/NJ/PA are get her first. She is coming in 2024. yippee

If the genie was there I would find it hard to believe that they would make a wheelchair person leave. I too would have glared and told them find the next elevator and to be grateful they could walk on. I mean really that is the height of ignorance. I must say 99% of the time on ships, folks are nice to those in wheelchairs. But one time last year I had to put my arm out to stop a few teenagers from running on ahead of wheelchair person. They looked at me sheepishly and slouched away sort of understanding their unkindness.

I agree of mine 9 next year oops I said 8. Anyhoo two are B2B in Florida requiring only 7 flights r/t Both ironically are B2B with DCL (magic and Wish). One is with Wonder OTS and one is with X Beyond. I sure wish I could do longer than 14 days but I think I would miss my home and then having to ask others to take care of things too.

I actually like that

wow just beautiful blue colors. thanks for sharing. following along. Not sure if I will ever get down under as the flight is long. I have booked and cancelled twice.
