I use them for all sorts of things around the house too, love 'em.

I loath Miami, one of the filthiest cities in Florida. My first cruise from there, we went all over and liked the Bayfront mall but when I went in to use the facilities I was shocked at the filth, I couldn't bring myself to touch the toity at all and people had just thrown filthy papers and other stuff I won't mention all over it...from that day on, I've purposely avoided cruises out of there. Yes, I had to go at times since Symphony and most recently now Icon are based out of there, but I still don't like it. That and no one seemed to speak English there. South Beach was better, but I still avoid it.

Or no underwear...LOL

It's really nice to be totally unpacked at 2pm We choose to check ours, I hate to schlep bags around, we always get the earliest arrival appt. times so I know our bags are first on the ship, hence almost always waiting for us when we enter the room...and we are always unpacked by 2. My BFF says they live out of their opened luggage on the couch and never pack or unpack, but with my OCD I must have a place for everything and everything in its place hidden away. Our cabin is always neat as a pin. I'm a bit strange like that....🙄

I take attractive ones usually available at T.J.Max. I ordered a bunch of these for the luggage tags and I use them to attach all kinds of things, even works with the beach bag to attach the zipper to my lounger. Not fool proof but way too undesirable to the casual thief. I am never far from it.

We use an old Padi dive card no need to pay for one

we applied on Allure last Sept. You had to charge at least $1000 which we did paying off our upcoming Voyager next week. Then we got the points and converted them to the OBC which you assign to a cruise booking. We put it toward ICON and were able to pay for our Supper Club reservation. It's a great deal...go for it.

Allure OTS compared to Mariner OTS
BecciBoo replied to jobinseattle's topic in Royal Caribbean International
As they say, variety is the spice of life. We wouldn't be able to cruise if everyone wanted the same ship.LOL I hope ICON doesn't disappoint, I've been building such huge expectations. -
Allure OTS compared to Mariner OTS
BecciBoo replied to jobinseattle's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Allure hands down, our favorite of all the sisters. Symphony second. We've been empty nesters since we started 25 yrs ago and still like the big ships better, much more to do and see. Mariner was good (3 cruises on her) but nothing like the sisters. -
Haiti conditions
BecciBoo replied to BecciBoo's topic in Tales from the Caribbean -- Ask A Question / Share Some Info
Now I wonder just why you got bumped to way back over here when there are several threads discussing this matter still on the main page? MMMMM????? -
I would never cx a cruise because of this...we don't even get off in Labadee anymore, And I don't let that bother me when booking if it shows up on the itin. No biggie. I guess I just trust RCCL after 25 years to take care of me. My bet for switching ports would be Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic since it's the same island and borders Haiti. In fact our Celebrity Ascent next April goes there. Somehow the Dominicans have got their sht under control. This is a pic of the gates at Labadee, they park their vehicles in front of them to keep criminals from ramming them. I wouldn't be afraid to go there, just don't want to go there. Stay on the ship.

😉 My original post got deported to "Tales from the Caribbean" and I never said they would I said I thought they might.

Skater Jordan was just there 3 days ago, all was well. -
There were ships full of people who got stuck onboard when Covid hit, Yes, there was some hardship endured but most made it. Is it that soon that we forget what actually happened? It's out of our control in any event. Maybe it would be good to look back in retrospect and some one here can relate what happened if they had to go through it. Anyone? Short of Nuclear war I can't think of anything worse than what happened 4 years ago,.

Requesting a table for future cruise
BecciBoo replied to Harrisonkid's topic in Royal Caribbean International
If you go to the MDR as soon as you board there's really no line and they can look up your table assignment with your set sail pass. You too, just go right away. I've requested a table for 16 before and we all sat together at two long tables in the back of the MDR. So I would also email with the request and follow up as soon as you board. -
