Possibly they have not cruised in a suite on a ship with CK and didn’t understand how it works there.

You can also take the train to Rome if you plan to stay and not go right to the airport. They had a bus for a few euros each that took us to the train station…..we could have walked but the bus was much easier with luggage and only takes a few minutes

I know that, I have always thought the food shouldn’t be “self serve” but not due to Covid, although what you replied to was my comment on how much our D+ drinks added to on a cruise if we had to pay for them.

Schooner is where I get the Lavender Daiquiri! I’ll try there. Thanks! We drive thru Wesley Chapel all the time on our way to our daughters! Thanks.

Thanks….no world market near us, I didn’t even know they had any in Florida? We have only seen them in California when we visit the kids there. yes, the picture I quoted was for the Lavender Martini which looked very good…. Do you know if I can order it if I’m not in Chops? I am definitely planning to try it!

Looks like I’m going to get some lavender simple syrup….any idea where I can get it? Online maybe?

The Lavender Daiquiri is always the first drink I have when I board a ship…..this drink looks interesting and will be my second on my next cruise. Thanks for posting the recipe

Wow! I never added up how much we get dollarwise in drink vouchers! On our B2B next month we’ll be getting $1,680 on the first cruise and $2,100 on the TA… 🍸🍷🍹🥂🥃 I have and it is unfortunately getting worse by what I’ve seen. It was good during Covid when they served the food in the WJ, but then that stopped. Anyone who is even a slight germaphobe will notice things like that.

I hope you have your camera!

If you’re talking about Prins Cristin Sund you will be amazed at the beauty. Highlight of the cruise!

We did that last September from Copenhagen to Boston…..awesome cruise that we want to do again.

We do too…

I got Covid on the NYE cruise on Jewel. I started symptoms the day I got home, tested negative for 2 days before it showed positive. No one else in our group of 8 got it.

I agree with you, I’ve spoken to many of the crew from all over and they all told us they do very well working on ships. If not why would they leave their families and children and do it over and over again. EDIT to add…..we DO tip generously

I’m not aware if ships have the antiviral meds, but if I were you I would ask if your physician would write you a script to take as a precaution as long as he thinks it’s ok for you to take it when not closeby in case of a reaction of any kind.

They have never fulfilled our needs even though I sent emails, and our room steward wasn’t aware but got what we needed. We have also had a no salt request added to our reservations but that didn’t work either. Ever..

On Odyssey The Book is the only show that “requires” a reservation. All others you just walk in and choose a seat. Enjoy!

They were very crunchy

You’ll be fine! have a great time!!

That was a good review….and I also ask for extra veggies, sometimes they just bring an extra plate of veggies and we share 👍

We didn’t live abroad, but we’re from NY and I could be bias, but we have fantastic breads available at many places, ie: Italian, German, American, sourdough…etc i grew up within walking distance of an authentic German Deli that made their own cold cut meats, as well as their homemade Leberkase (we called it liverloaf) which came right out of the oven warm on Saturdays and we would just have them slice a nice hunk out for lunch on their German breads! Plus their homemade hot dogs and Bologna, as well as all the other German cold cuts spoiled me so I still can’t eat either of those. And don’t even get me started about our Italian markets….. oh I miss NY for the food, but not the weather or the taxes

We have……at Giovanni’s

The rolls used to be much better….they were crispy, not anymore….BUT the pumpkin seed ones are my favorite…..except for savory bites which I haven’t seen in many years. funny how rolls are my favorite food in the MDR. I can’t think of any other thing that stands out

I laughed out loud reading your comment…..but it’s sad that it’s all true. I don’t ever eat any of their red meat or worse their pork anymore. Sad, but the positive side is I don’t gain any weight

In the app each cruise has a little blue box on the top left that says “My Cruise”. I noticed one of my cruises didn’t have the box, but my hubby’s did. I couldn’t see any excursions or anything, but he could. My wonderful TA worked with Royal to correct it finally so I could see all the excursions and plans we had booked. Does your husband’s app have the blue box?
