Thanks for this review. We are in 8472 Aft Balcony Havana on 9/13/18. We are taking the train to NYC from Hudson, NY that morning. This is a four day Bermuda but seems like fun and never been. Glad that Havana is like a little oasis of quiet with so many people on the ship. A little concerned with noise from the music as it is open until midnight in Havana but that is what ear plugs are for if necessary.

We are in 8472 on 7/31. If I forget to report back, ping me if you have any questions. I'm a light sleeper/sensitive to noise (which is why we didn't go with an aft on 9 due to Lido/10 above), so will be eager to find out myself!

Thank you so much for this review; it's by far the best from this summer! I appreciate the details and well-thought-out notes. I'm glad you had a great time, and your family is lovely. DH & I depart Tuesday and are in a Havana aft, and your review has gotten us more excited! Thanks again.

I wonder how recent the Texas law is. I remember lots of brunch places in Houston and Austin had "Bottomless Mimosas" back in the aughts.

The TABC's and NYSLA's law excludes bottomless brunches and the like because they are considered "events".

This just brought back so many memories from a cruise my DH & I were a few years ago, wherein he worked 5 of the 7 days....I felt so sorry for him! Stuck in the cabin almost all day.... Ironically, he was lead tech doing work on Carnival's (all the lines, actually) computer systems.

Anyway, my DH actually bought two packages (one in my name, one in his - they gave a credit after the cruise for one which was nice), one for his laptop and one for his phone so he didn't have to toggle back and forth. It took forever to do that (switch back and forth) as for some reason it took a little time (maybe 15mins) to log out/log in/switch devices. He did make wifi calls but the service connection took a while, so until you can determine speed make sure you allow time cush on the frontend if you have to be on time for conference calls.

They could have improved their services within the last 4 years, so it might work better now. Good luck!

All.of.it.

I take bonnie or dramamine starting the day before, and then keep taking every dosage, even if I start to feel like I could do without because I found that when I skipped, the sickness doubled.

I wear seabands for the first two days even while sleeping.

I bring along ginger and peppermint (tummy drops).

By the third day I am right as rain, or only occasionally need the tummy drops/wear the seabands if rough seas.

Good luck!

Thank you for this
